I thought I would show you a few of my finds when
hubby and I went to the hundreds thousands of garage sales
on 127 this past weekend. Actually, we didn't even come close to
hitting thousands. We stayed in Ohio and didn't even make it through
that state. lol.
I will say as far as the many miles we traveled almost everything
I found was close to home. Next year I am staying in our neck
of the woods.
I found gobs of clay pots. Most were 5 and 10 cents, but I did pay a quarter for the
six larger ones. They weren't priced so I offered the lady that much.
Lovin the chippy white paint on some of these. I haven't had time to clean them
off so you get to see them with cobwebs, dirt and all. :)
I found another crown jar at the antique mall where I frequent for $2.00.
Fell in L.O.V.E. with this french bottle
Don't look closely because this is inside my potting shed that still needs a lot of work,
but see these three white posts? I scored these for FREE!
along with this amazing old screen door.
Can you believe that I was the lucky person to score these?
At first I was told someone else had spoken for them and then
I was told to come and get them. YIPPEE!!
They came from a 120 year old farmhouse. Can't wait to do something
with them...I know hubby can't wait either because
he always gets pulled into my schemes. lol.
Did you notice my new header and larger pix?
I had Karen work on my blog and I think she did an

GREAT STUFF GIRL!!! I love that yard sale....you have to be brave to do it with the heat (I have) but I found the most wonderful stuff too :) I love everything Sandi!! And your blog is just beautiful ~ Karen did a terrific job for you ~ I hope you are staying cool sweet friend, hugs and love, Dawn
Wow! Your finds are wonderful.
My son and I went on the 127 yardsales for two years until this year. We always had a blast when we went and I always found the greatest things. The first year, however, my van got plowed into and was totaled. Last year, I ended up with two flat tires. I decided to take a break this year since the last two years didn't turn out so well.
I hope to go back next year.
So glad you got to enjoy it!!

I like all your purchases. What is that metal structure with circles cut out in back of your shed? I'm kinda coveting it.
That is an amazing screen door...and posts...we never find stuff like that here at yard sales!
I am going to try that key lime pie in the post below...especially in the jars:)...I hadn't had key lime either until just recently but it is yummy!
