Yesterday, my friend Peggy and I stopped at an old barnlike building to see if they had any good stuff. An old man came out with the keys, opened it up and said, "you ladies just take your time and I'll be over here on the porch if you need me. One thing though, you gals mighten want to watch out for them there copper heads. The dang things are always a pesterin me and I thank I done kilt everyone of em, but I mighten missed one or two. There mite be a chicken snake or two." Chicken snake, chicken snake???? Get that vision out of my head!

Oh it sounds like such fun. Mannerly, oh that is classic. My girlfriend and I met a vendor who invited us to his barn and we did not have the snakes to contend with but there were lots of holes in the floor to "watch out" for. We had fun, found good treasures and a memory for old age.
Copper Heads??????OMG I had one of those INSIDE of our house one day. Not really fond of them at all. But I would have dove right in like you. lol I can't wait to see what you found:)

You are one brave lady Sissie! Copper heads really scare me for sure. I hope you had a stick in your hand and made a lot of noise when you went in there and scared them out! I would've done it too though. Love your pillows!

gorgeus!!!!
Just hearing the "s" word makes my skin crawl! You are so brave!!
Hope you had your hard hat on! If that pic was the actual barn you entered, I would have been more worried about it falling on my head than the snakes under my feet!! Can't wait to see your treasures! Love your pillows, esp the blue with the brown scroll-design! Have a great weekend!
G'day~Fabulous Fabrics! Excited to see what treasures you found.~Cheers Kim

Hi Sissie...It is just too much fun going junkin, isn't it? My husband is taking the day off tomorrow and we are going to go see if see if we can get some interesting stuff. Thanks for the email on getting my oval table started. I did take it off the shelf and it is now sitting there looking at me! Looks like work! lol Have a great day!~Hugs, Patti ps....love the pretty blue/brwn pillows!
Oh Sissie you must come and pick me up next time you go junking. I am master killer of rattlesnakes...known far and wide here 'n these parts(okay, not really, but I have killed two rattlesnakes in my lifetime) But I would face a third if it meant getting to the GOOD stuff! I cannot wait to see what you found.
I adore the blue pillows girl!!!
