Junk Bonanza

This weekend was the Junk Bonanza. It was fantastic.
I'd like to say a huge thank you to Amy at Junkologie. I won tickets to the Junk Bonanza through her giveaway (my first time ever winning a giveaway!!).
I would have gone anyway, but it was nice to have a few extra dollars to spend! Thanks Amy!!!
It was packed - both with vendors and shoppers.

The booths all looked amazing, treasures in every corner!

There were a lot of really unusual and cool storage pieces - most of them already had sold signs on them!

Lots of silver - my favorite!

More silver.

Silver of every kind.

I spotted Layla from the Lettered Cottage. She was being followed around by a camera crew. I hope whatever they were filming makes it to TV - I would love to see a thrifting/junking show.

The Queens of Posh. One of the queens posing in her booth.

More from the Queens booth, they had beautiful things - I loved this chair.

Here are a few things I brought home.

A witch, painted onto a carved wood piece. This was from Once Upon a Barn's booth, they had amazing signs and art - much of it was Halloween themed.

A closeup of the crow sitting on the witch's hat.

This is the other witch. It is a carved wood witch on a broom, with her black cat, now hanging on the front porch.

I picked up a handful of silver flatware.

And an old sorority photograph from 1938 - I love old group photos.

I'm already looking forward to next years Junk Bonanza! It was really an experience to see so many amazing vendors, including some from the blogging world, all together!
