A couple garage sale finds

Every year {when I remember. lol} I go to a fair
foundation garage sale that is only about 9 miles
from our house and this past Saturday was
the big day.
I fell in love with this glass beaded purse.
{the back is fully beaded too , but in a different pattern}
I passed it up the first time around.
{it was in a ziploc bag and marked $8.00}

The inside is immaculate and has a Ivey's tag.
The elderly lady selling
it told me she just brought it back from Florida.
I ended up paying $6.00 for it ~

I also love these salt and peppers with their silver
crown tops. Actually, I found these at an
antique store and paid $4.00 for them.
{I do have the pair, but only one made it into the picture}
I also got other goodies at the garage sale that include
a vintage necklace with bling{$3.00},
adorable postcards {50 cents}, and
a white tablecloth edged in lace {$2},
but didn't get photos taken of them yet.

Have you found any goodies lately? Praying you have a wonderful Thursday~ Blessings~

Ooh Sandy,
I love your goodies, they're all lovely. I haven't found any goodies this week but am heading to the big antique show this weekend w/my daughter and hope to while there.

I got your comment about following my blog, perhaps Annika did it the last time she was "back home again" ;) Glad you're a follower again, I wouldn't want to do it without you!
