I wish I had taken photos of Michelle's astounded face at the very friendly prices to be found. Here we are, picking through the loot at the outlet store:

 |
| (look at Michelle's stylish Paris bag - she looked so chic!) |
 |
| (perfect for White Wednesday, no?) |
Here's what I brought home. First, this great old wooden ladder:
 |
| ($10 - yes! There's 3 more there...hurry!) |
I also found the cool flour sack there - in my palette! It hangs next to this amazing enamel bucket that Michelle brought me. She thought it would fit my farmhouse-style kitchen more than it did hers. Isn't she thoughtful? And of course she embellished it with one of her amazing signature-styled tags.
I cleaned up this old top of a baluster/fence post(?) for our mantel and got a neat old music book for a future project:
Keep your eye out for the autumn issue of Somerset Life, on news-stands soon. Michelle's doorknob inspiration holders are on the cover and she's got an article inside! Congratulations Michelle! Visit her blog to see what she brought home from the White Elephant.
And thanks to all of you offering well wishes on the opening of my Etsy store. Stay tuned for a giveaway soon...

This is awesome! I live in RI and will HAVE to make a trip here. Thanks so much for sharing and love your blog! :)
Your finds are all so pickin' cool! I love spending my time digging and rooting through stuff to find something unique and special.

You 2 are too darn cute!!! I so wish I could have spent the day with you both, shopping and laughing and having a great time! I can't believe you scored that ladder for $10.00. I saw one in an antique shop last week for $125.00, can you believe that?!!
Thanks so much for thinking of me.
Hope you have a lovely day.
Sincerely,
Melinda
