A Marigold Treasure Chest

I found this "treasure chest" in a bin at the Surplus Store ... and couldn't resist the precious artwork.

These marigold seeds were packaged for the 1986 growing season, and apparently sold to raise money for the Epilepsy Foundation of America.

I wonder if they would still grow if I planted them???

I had to smile as well at the hearts I found ... in the leaves of the potted plant; in the spade propped up in the pot just behind the little gardener ...

"Guest Heart Thursday"

Found at Goodwill ...

When I go to the Goodwill Outlet store, I always look for interesting bits of paper that end up in the bottom of the bins.

This is a sampling of what I found when I made the trek to Salem last Sunday.

Advertising for a rain bonnet ... a package of Marigold seeds, A Disney playing card of Dewey, and a note proclaiming that Bailey loves me.

Not bad for 89 cents a pound.
