Saturday Estate Sale finds

Twas a crisply cool Saturday morn, and I was heading for my 9:30 destination when lo and behold , I see that eyeball grabbing, beguiling sign that read's Estate Sale. Twitch..gulp..I look at the time..I have 7 minute's... Skreeeeech!!! And off I go to see, just what I could possibly be missing out on if I don't at least do a quick scan..and here's my flash find's of the day. (p.s, as I pulled up somebody was loading up some totally awesome trendy lucite chair's! Congratulation's you lucky dog, for finding a designer's dream!) Ah well I was happy anyhoo!
Awesome lucite jewelry boxes with removable divider's, for a pittance!

I bought these brand new professional grade pencil's that regularly cost 40 buck's and up for...$1.00..squeal!
You may laugh, but I'm not kiddin when I say I was just gripping about how i needed one of these industrial  triple hole punches! Again only one buckaroo!!
And finally, as you can see, a box crammed full of mostly new embroidery floss. Oh happy day! I hope your's was too!:0 Dawn

I Heart Estate Sales

What's not to love about estate sales? It's alway's heart pounding exciting for me, especially when I come across a fabulous hand tooled leather suit case, and a mother load of paint by numbers! All for a song! Mind you these are only, 1/2 the picture's I found. I gave the other half to my sister, who was equally stoked. It's the beginning of garage sale time too now that the weather has warmed up. What other find's will I come across?... We shall see! Have a wonderful week!

One Mans Trash Is Another Ladys Treasure

I'm driving down my road, minding my own business, when off to my left I glimpse something intriguing on the curb with the trash....something retro kool, and eye catching green!

Two awesome vintage chair's, that would perfectly replace my metal folding one's in my studio!

Of course, I quickly did a U-ee, and whipped up to those chair's, and had them in the back of my ride, faster than you can say.. "Hot diggity"! Cruising on home, feeing that rush from my sweet, free score!

A good soapy scrubbin... and hello new studio seating! Happy Wednesday!
