Of course I LOVE the bunny!!!! Santa is a bit *evil* looking there, but prim indeed! Glad you found some stuff, I got a few warm outfits at our GW for when my grandson comes home, he doesn't have any warm clothes in HI, LOL!

Morning Carmen...I LOVE your Turkey - I really don't think I have seen these before but how lucky you will now have 3 for a table centerpiece...how beautiful will that be.
Your other finds are wonderful. You are so lucky to work so close to GW to be able to get the deals.
Great idea to pull the swag apart - what you going to do with the Pumpkins...I'd rub them down with some Brown Paste Shoe polish and see what happens...I bet they will look just so Prim!

Thanks for visiting my blog kiddo...always nice to see you there.

Not sure about next weeks trip to Ohio...if I don't start feeling some better from this Sinus infection I won't be going anywhere.

Love your finds this week Carmen. This week my favorite are the pewter goblets. I have yet to find an pewter here. Searching for it makes for a fun shopping day though. Can't wait for today to be over and behind you. Good luck.

I love the little maple syrup jug!
You did well, my friend. You did well.
I found a little salt crock this week--about 1/2c. size--dark brown. had flowers painted on but luckily they were acrylic and washed right off. 79 cents!
Love your pewter goblets!

Wow, Carmen. You did really well at Goodwill. I'm not sure which I like best.....the crock is great; love that you got so many pumpkins out of that swag; I do love that maple syrup jug; I always get excited over wooden bowls and the little ornament is precious! Great prices! You did have a good week! :)

Have a great evening, my friend!
