Fall Table with a Grain Sack Runner

I just had to show you this wonderful grain sack that I found at the flea market.

I didn't know what I would use it for when I picked it up, but it fit perfectly on my dining room table.

The fall colored dishes I have had forever and they were purchased at Target.

Next on my list is to paint the dining room chairs.  Any color suggestions?

Flea Market Finds

Hubby and I hit the flea market today and came home with....

2 rusted metal tool boxes.  

An old rusty iron, that I will be using as a door stop.

2 wire mesh pool baskets.

 and a bright green vintage "Pyrex" bowl with lid.

I think I made a good haul for the day.

Bowl of Silver

Hubby and I were garage sale-ing one day and ran across a pile of silver for pennies, so we snatched it up.

There is over 10 pounds of silver here.

After we did some research we found out most of it is from the 1800's.

Our plan was to scrap it, but now I hate to melt it down for scrap and loose something from the 1800's.

I think with gold and silver prices where they are many things will be lost forever:(

So now, what does one do with 10 pounds of silver?
