I really did! I had been dreaming of a bar stool or two
for the new island in my kitchen (it is also still a dream),
but I put that out of my head and we hopped in the car
and went to a garage sale just a few miles away on
Saturday before all the birthday festivities started.
Am I ever glad we did!
Tons of antique goodies were there
and it was the third day of the sale!
People just aren't buying around here like they used to.
This pottery piece was 1.00
necklace 50 cents
I love the detail on this piece. Did you notice
the pinecone on the right hand side? It also
has one on the back side.
{Can you believe I still have phlox blooming?
I cut them off weeks ago and they bloomed again!}
pretty pottery vase 50 cents
10 cents each
here and there...
for 50 cents.
50 cents for little green terra cotta pot.
love this buckle that was also in the bag with the lace.
{and crochet thread that didn't make the picture}
2.50 for all of it
that had wonderful graphics, but I had to take it off
and get rid of it because it was very brittle.
{I know this seam binding ribbon isn't white, but just
had to include it too. Hey at least the basket is white! lol}
I think I was very good considering all that was there.
There was a large pole building and a garage
full of antique items.
From Christmas ornaments to old valentines to...
you name it they had it! The day we went everything
was half off and I spent $7.50 total. I was hoping to go
back later in the day, but it just didn't happen with
family in for the day.
I am still very happy with what I purchased.
Happy White Wednesday # 70!
Kathleen has been doing this for quite some time now.

Hi Sandi, I can't believe any of this was not grabbed the first day of the sale! You got some great things. Love the tins, lace, book..really everything.

I would have paid that for the seam binding alone ~ or probably for one spool! What amazing finds, Sandi!
Wow Sandy....you did good! I love it all! How come I never find yard sales like that? I guess that's why I enjoy the thrill of the hunt so much. Happy White Wednesday.
I'm jealous that you still have Phlox. Mine are long gone!

Hi Sandi,
I had to stop in and say hello to you and wow! I love your treasure hunting events. You found some amazing things! Love the necklace and pottery.
Thank you for your thoughtfulness and prayers you've been sending my way. Saying thank you pales in comparison as to how heartfelt it truly is. You are such a blessing to me and I am so thankful for you and your sincere heart.
