I love antiques. I've been collecting pieces of furniture here and there over the years. Some of my favourite pieces:

Jelly cupboard

Wash stand or whatever you call them

Walnut wash stand (hard to find now a days)

This I found on the side of the road with 5 coats of paint on it, I stripped it down and got this

I also collect prints of black memorabilia, slavery etc. I'll find those and post pics of them

OH my, I have boxes and boxes of salt and peper shakers that were my D grandmothers and she's been gone for 40 years. They were passed to my mother and then me. Would you like to see some pic's of the one's I have in the house?

I forgot to add, I have Longaberger Baskets. I'm not sure how many I have, they were my DMIL's and they were passed on to me because there was no one else to give them to and I promised her I would not let my FIL burn them. They may not be antiques yet but they are worth money. I just hope my DC will want them.

I love antiques and it is so relaxing to buzz through an antique store. I bought 105 yr old farmhouse and the new stuff just doesn't look right. Some of the items I have is an old Victrola "talking machine" (wind up record player) a grandfathers clock, a wonderful old dresser.. and oodles of glassware (wellerware, fireking, mccoy etc)
On my last visit to the local antique store I purchased a table lamp with a pink Fenton shade. I paid $80 for it.
