A Fun Filled Day!

Saturday two of my favorite treasure hunters (Jenny & Niki) and I attended the 40th Winter Wisconsin Antiques Dealers Association Show at the Waukesha County Expo Center in Waukesha WI.

It truly was a wonderful show and we saw so many wonderful collections that the dealers were showing and selling of course.  

It was fun to talk to some of the dealers and learn more about the pieces they were selling!

I tried to take some pictures to give you some idea what was being offered at the show.

This booth carried a wonderful assortment of vintage dolls

and vintage books/vintage games that had the most beautiful graphics on them.

A wonderful piece to add to your primitive collection!

Saw a lot of chocolate molds and vintage cookie cutters.

Victorian shoes!!!

We saw a lot of these stacked boxes with some beautiful graphics on them.

Collections of vintage Halloween pieces.

I would of loved to have taken these home!!!
