Auction

Sometime, in the distant future we are going to add built in cabinets, one on the landing and two in the living room.  John threw out the idea that we could buy a cabinet and modify it for our purposes, Bryna and I are on board. As we were searching for said cabinet on craig’s list Bryna came across some awesome stain glass cabinet doors (see below) that were going up for auction, that night. So we went to the auction, much to John’s dismay he had to do homework.
The auction was pretty much amazing entertainment as we pondered who these people were and why did they want these things. Costume jewelry, toy tractors, GI Joe clothes, old lipstick containers, dolls, a tin lunch pail, parking meters, creepy horse figurines, the usual.
The stained glass cabinet doors went for more than what I was will to pay, some people were really adamant about wanting them, all 6 of them….
But we did get this stained glass lamp shade that will look awesome above the dining room built in.

  2. I was kind of disappointed that the you could actually understand the auctioneer. But then again I was very happy we could understand the auctioneer. :)
