Vintage finds

I checked out the first weekend of the Ann Arbor Antiques Market today with my mom and Mark. Lots of interesting items and people to look at.

How I love Danish Modern design! Threw in some peanut men for good measure.

These are antique chocolate molds. The large bunny on the left was made in 1937 and sells for $38,500! The merchant said that a solid chocolate bunny weighs 75lbs!

    Speaking as a dog person, I LOVE Tulip! She looks scrappy.

    Also, I really like the photo of the letterpress stamps. Could you make a print of it?
