I found this large bean pot or cookie jar.
I have a pie plate that I got from longerberger baskets that
matches what is on the bottom of the pot. It was very dirty and covered
in paint splatter. I cleaned it up but it still has paint.
I like the the simplicity of it.
I also picked up a couple of books all of this from a thrift store.
so I will put my feet up and watch the debate tonight while thumbing through my books.
Now on to the give away! I will repost a picture when I can get outside
these are two wooden chargers great for putting on the wall or to make your
table pretty, There is also a spiced pumpkin candle, and a packet of recipe booklets
from during and just after the depression.
Here is a little display of them. The egg one should come in handy for all of you with chickens, there is one for left overs, cranberries, etc it is a great fun assortment.
Now the rules I would love for you to be a follower, Just leave a comment
on this post I will draw a winner One week from today Oct 18th.
I will post more pictures when it is nice and sunny out and I can get a good picture. (Click on the picture for a bigger view.)
There also could be a few surprises included.
Good Luck!

That's a great bean pot! What a find for you! I never have such luck when I head to thrift stores.
I'd love to join in your lovely giveaway! Such fun :-) Thank you!
Good job at the Thrift Store! That's my specialty. The covered pottery would be a nice container for coffee and would look nice on the kitchen counter by your coffee pot.

Love the wooden plates, please enter me
I love that beanpot too!
What a fun giveaway!
What a great pot, it would certainly have come home with me too Cathy!
The books look great, and I'm a sucker for a good book.
What a glorious giveaway - I will pass the parcel however, as the postage to the UK would be
astronomical :o(
Wishing everyone else good luck though.
Have a great weekend.
