Historic Site Tag Sale


Screech!  With a house that looks like this, nobody in their right mind would pass up a tag sale so of course I pulled over.  The Twin Maples is a historical building near my house.  A couple of years ago, it was the site of a designer show house and even has an ultra expensive Christoper Peacock kitchen.

The inside is amazing too with a grand staircase leading to a huge leaded glass window, fabulously proportioned rooms with lots of fireplaces, amazing ceiling details and ornate columns.

There was a ton of great stuff.  I found a few things - a vintage travel bar set (who knows when you'll want to pull over on the side of the road for an aperitif) with key and original price tag of $16.95, old cabinet door with original hardware turned mirror and a cute bunny cake mold (no, I probably won't be having a baking conniption with this one but it will make a great Easter decoration).

Fabulous, never used 1950's Trav-L-Bar case with key and original price tag!
