Interesting Antiques On Our Vacation

Bench made from old car parts with a wood slate seat

Loved this bench made from a old Ford tailgate!

My husband and I had fun antiquing through Iowa and a little bit of Minnesota.  I took photos whenever I could of things that I wanted to remember.  I hope you like the interesting things that I found.  I have more but I will do that in another post.

All the drawers to this cabinet are made up of cigar boxes.

Close up of the boxes.

I have never seen a napkin holder like this.  You put napkins in the slots to make up her skirt.

I think they used a chicken coop for the base of this coffee table laminated with old yardsticks.

I loved this bench but it was very expensive!

Suitcase that turns into a table.

Smoke comes out of this guys ears on this ashtray.

Then we saw these things driving by and had to do a turn-a-round to go back and take photos.

Wood carvings in a front yard of the "Three Stooges - Larry, Curly and Mo" golfing.  The giant golf ball is in the middle.

Windmill man

At the bottom of this windmill is this sculpture of a carpenter that saws the log when the windmill above him goes around.

Giant chicken woodcarving.

We had such a good time.  I can't wait to go back!
