Do you like my "Vintage Boat Oars"? I love them and got them on E-Bay auction from a lady living on Lake Michigan. (That's her story anyway.) It took me a while to figure out the bidding protocol (and Haley wasn't here to help me!) but once I posted my "maximum bid" I just left it up to Mr. E-Bay and I won...Yes, Rick there were other bidders who wanted these!
They have "chippy" paint, worn leather straps, and one of the oars has a "B" (Boston maybe?) branded on the paddle. I hung them with black iron curtain pulls from Lowes.
Yea! I am impressed at your computer skills. I bet you were amazed when they showed up.
ReplyDeleteNow, do I need to be checking ebay for the family silver?
I love the way you hung them!! Just what you needed for that wall.
Smart shopping, Holly! I spent a season on ebay a couple of years ago, when I was putting a "Sweet Pea" basket together for Jordan's baby shower gift. it was so much fun, and could be very time consuming, if you let it.
ReplyDeleteI always loved the phrasing "I won". They are the same words Dan used when he BOUGHT the Sunbeam Tiger on ebay.
