Allegan Antique Market part 2...

My sister, mom and I had fun posing with various items at the Allegan antique market on Sunday. I will say that I've gotten spoiled with estate sale prices and the market was a bit higher priced than I wanted to pay. 
Some items that DID come home with me included -
This horseshoe game for Josie's birthday.
A pile of vintage wrapping paper. 

I had also hinted about a 2nd dollhouse. Here's a sneak peek.

I promise more exterior dollhouse pictures on Friday. I haven't had a single moment to "play" this week. Lots going on with family and work. The weekend can't get here fast enough!

    Looks like TWO mighty fine dollhouse finds . . . Is it this gorgeous weather that has made it impossibly busy . . .

    The difference in prices between garage sales and antique markets is pretty crazy! Love your finds! And I love the vintage wrapping paper! And it's so easy to store!

    Well you scared me a bit with that bear head, Kim! So glad it didn't come home with you! The vintage wrapping paper is darling, and so are your doll houses! I hope you are able to play with them soon:)

    I love the chairs made from skies (not sure what thealf thais). The horseshoe game and paper is aforable. I want to find a doll house. I think that they find you.

    Great finds, Kim! You are correct about the pricing, though. Antique markets often really "up" the price. Hopefully I will go to one in the area on Saturday, but may not find anything to buy. xo Nellie
