Joe, the Iron Man came by the shop on Saturday with his junk wagon in tow. This picture is Joe's set-up at the Raleigh, NC Flea Market. He hooks that same trailer up to his pick-up truck and peddles his stuff to area dealers.
Remember Mr. Haney from Petticoat Junction? Well, that's what I call Mr. Joe. Wanna see what I got from him....
This iron garden gate makes a perfect headboard. Don't you think so?
He also had these adorable frogs. I added little rhinestones to their crowns and a sweet tag that reads...."Sometimes you have to
kiss a few frogs before you find your Prince !"
Got this adorable bench from one of the other booth owners in our shop. It's perfect for my bathroom vanity area.
I like how it looks in the livingroom.
Now, I'm going blog hopping to catch up on all my blogging sisters.

I Sissie,
Oooh! I have iron envy! I absolutely love your new headboard and iron bench! And the white bench, too! Those little frogs are too cute! I remember Petticoat Junction (hope I'm not dating myself!!)!
I know that jealousy is a bad thing, and you shouldn't covet other people's things, but I love that headboard and iron bench and everything else that you got! And those frogs are just adorable!
Happy Monday!

Sissie, thanks for stopping by RH did a great job, I was really pleased. I love what you did with the frogs and I can think of some little Missy that will be sitting on that chair shortly. I laughed when you said that you bought the chair from another vendor, in the mall I am in we buy mostly from each other too!

Hello Sweet Sissie,
I love your new iron treasures. I do remember Joe from P.J. I can almost see him now.
I think your frogs are adorable.. but I think they should be facing each other for a kiss.. ha!
Blessings always and hugs too!
Gwen:)

Hi Sissie!
I do remember Uncle Joe, was Mr. Haney the one that couldn't remember anything? I used to watch that show at my grandparent's and loved the little dog chasing the railroad car, I was always worried he wouldn't make it (somethings NEVER change w/me & animals).
I love your new headboard, it's so pretty! The bench is darling too, OK, I love it all, you made out great. Don't you love it when that happens?
Happy week, I will Petticoat Junction in my head all night.
xo~Tracie
The bedhead looks so romantic..Love all the pictures..You got some great finds..xx
I covet the headboard! I have no place for one, but it's just romantic and charming all rolled into one!
And those frogs are fabulous! What a clever idea!!!
o...talk about some good loot...you sure got it, girl.
I am forever in love with the headboard..and that bench is as cute as can be. You'll enjoy the little stool in your bath.
Now...on to the cute childs chair. I have a little red rocker that I bought for my first grandson. It is still here (and we just celebrated his 20th birthday)...I am bringing it out of the closet and into my living room!! Thanks for the inspiration..
xo bj
As long as you keep your tetanus shot current...I say bring on the iron. There is never enough to suit me!
Mr. Haney...what a hoot!
Debbie
Good golly, when Joe finds a will, he finds a way to make money and keep the ladies happy. What FUN! What awesome finds you bought!
Thanks for sharing the goodies! Darn, we can look, but we cannot touch!
Aunt Hattie just opened her junk shop on Funkyjunk Lane. Come turn up the music and dance with Hattie!
I love it all! Both benches are adorable and I love how you spruced up the frogs.:)
Well, aren't you the clever one!? I've seen headboards made into garden "furniture", but never the other way around, and I LOVE it! Thank you for sharing an awesome idea!
Fabulous! Thanks for the inspiration, will visit often. xo
