December-January shows

Just wanted to post a reminder that December and January are great months for collectors. There are alot more shows of all kinds around the holidays and the new year. For example, before Christmas I went to five different shows that were church benefits and had some great finds. Three were jumble sales where they have a real mix of things: home decor, outdoor goods, pins, caps, etc. I got a paperweight with a couple of preserved butterflies in it (don't know how they do that without crushing the butterflies.) The paperweight was still really clear, not cloudy so it looks great. I also picked up several miniature duck decoys, about 2-3 inches, kind of fun.

Hope everyone's new year is off to a good start!
