 My hubby found this old doll. Just look how cute she is. Ill clean her up! Shes going to be purdy. I found the old medicine bottle in the ground in front of the shed. The owners dad found the shoe/boot in the house and gave it to me.
Look at these beautiful pieces of pastel moldings. STUNNING! And more JUNK treasures!
Close-up of molding.
I get to have this piano. Im very inspired by whiteys4 post about her grandmas piano. I will try to make a few things out of this piano. Wish me luck!
Heres the shed where Im finding most of the treasures. I even get to have the doors off this shed.

AWESOME TREASURES I have found on the outside and inside of an 1892 home.
I'm still picking through LOTS more.
Check out the old moldings.  The details and colors are so beautiful!
I should of wore some depends cause I almost peed myself from excitement! He! He!

Hope you enjoy the photos of these old BEAUTIFUL treasures.

suewhitney writes: OK... you crack me up. I think you're on to some thing! I think you should market a line of depends for junkers because we've all had this feeling when coming upon a treasure trove. You're screen name is a perfect brand name. Dumpster Diving Diva Depends...protection made strong enough for a junker!! Ah, hahaha! Seriously, love your loot. The molding is to die for cool. Have fun!

Be Well,
