Online Garage Sale...items added daily!


It is way past time to weed out some of my treasures and pass them along to someone else
to enjoy so I am having an online garage sale. You can purchase these for the price listed plus
shipping charges.

 I am asking for a check or money order for
payment. You can email me at :

sandijo_59@hotmail.com

with any questions you might have. I am removing items as they sell so you don't get
confused.

I charge actually shipping charges to rest assured I am not trying to make money on
shipping. Thank you and have fun looking!


We are starting this sale off with a vintage rusty/crusty clock that is just perfect for display. I have several of
these used in my home for just that purpose.


Next, we have a vintage baby ben alarm clock for your viewing pleasure. :)





This is a small canvas also from Peacock Park. It still has the shrink wrap on most of it . {some missing
from the back} It is brand new also.


I used to collect these vintage candy boxes and I just love the graphics on them.


Another cute vintage candy box.

For the shoe lover in your life...


Silver glitter keys...we all love them! :)

I love these crosses...I saved a few out for me. I am pretty sure they are glass.



Pretty crystal ornies...


Other beautiful ornaments...


Merry Christmas signs to add to your Christmas packages...

Now did you find something you just can't live without?? I hope so!! Like I said, I will keep adding items
and take off the ones that are sold. Happy shopping!!

Please note: I only ship to United States and Canada.

Thank you!

I tried to be good...

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

love these tins my hubby spotted for me.
10 cents each

all this ribbon with lily of the valley attached to it
here and there...

...it was included in a bag of vintage lace and buttons
for 50 cents.
50 cents for little green terra cotta pot.

love this buckle that was also in the bag with the lace.

spools and spools of vintage seam binding ribbon
{and crochet thread that didn't make the picture}
2.50 for all of it

This did come with the old cardboard pieces attached
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}

last but not least a book for $1.00.

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.
Be sure and visit her blog for more beautiful posts.

Fabulous Finds ~

I thought I would share some of my garage sale and thrift store finds with you today. Love this cute cherub. I splurged and paid 4.95 for him ~ I purchased this gorgeous vintage lace runner with wide lace all around it at a garage sale. 10 cents and it is beautiful! This is a wood piece that I picked up earlier this spring. It was part of a huge old frame. I just finished painting and distressing it this past week. Paid $1.00 for this gem~
Doilies and vintage lace (and the lace edged runner in the 2nd photo)...I asked the lady how much (nothing was marked...I hate that) she said, "oh...10 cents each or a whole pile for that"...I grabbed them and gave her the 35 cents I had in my pocket. (no I didn't knock anyone down in the process...LOL) I really adore that lace edged runner ~
Do you remember this vintage frame from several posts back? It was gold? I painted it cream and distressed it too and I love how it turned out. It measures a whopping 19 inches x 24.5 inches! I also paid 5o cents for the vintage lace tablecloth underneath the frame ~
Love this little container with the rose on the side. I splurged and paid $3 for it...the ball fringe was $2 at the thrift store. I am loving my thrifty finds.

I am wondering how garage sales are doing in your area. Around here it used to be that you better get there when they open on the first day if you want anything good at all. I am finding this year (at least most I have went to) that there are wonderful and cheap finds on the 2nd and 3rd days. Didn't use to be that way, but it makes me a happy camper...or maybe I just have a *unique* taste in old goodies?? Also, I know some people can't see past the piece that looks like junk that truly can be remade into something wonderful.

What goodies have you found lately? I would love to know. Have a wonderful day ! Blessings~

Garage Sale Time ~

It is that time of year again for the annual *GARAGE SALE*. Actually I hadn't had one for years until last year and now again this year, but I aim to make it a yearly tradition . We live just north of a lake and their parade of sales is around the lake tomorrow so we don't have to advertise. People come in droves! I really needed to clean out much more stuff, but hopefully next year I can. It is just so much work getting ready for these sales! Seems more so every year. Maybe it is just my age creeping up on me. Ugh ~

Photo below is some of my closeout signs. I have had so many of these made up and stored up that they just had to go! Sold several today and hopefully the rest tomorrow~
I love this DREAM sign and the chandelier and lampshade with blue roses, but I can't keep everything. They are the simply shabby chic lampshades in the British Rose Pattern~ I told you I have accumulated a *LOT* of stuff! I don't know where this stuff comes from...lol! I told someone who stopped today that we should just have a big meet and swap stuff. We sell things at our sales and then go buy more stuff! Funny how that works ~
Scrapbooking goodies that I have wayyyyyyy too much of~
Ribbon and odds and ends...hopefully by tomorrow by about 11 am most of this will be all gone. I can only have the sale for half a day because my neice graduates at 1 pm. I am going to have to really move to get this sale going , closed up and on to the graduation and the open house afterwards ~
P.S. I only showed you the *PRETTY* parts of the sale. I left out hubbies tools and all those gadgets that we have no clue what they are or how they work! LOL
I hope you have a blessed weekend filled with people you love and things you love to do~

Gorgeous Antique Frame ~

First of all these are not *PRETTY* pictures , but I had to share my latest goodies with you that I found at a couple garage sales on Saturday.

A huge old frame , doilies and candleholders ~
I *LOVE* this frame! It was only $1.00 at a Faith Mennonite School rummage sale ~ My plan is to paint it cream or white so I will definitely have a *PRETTY* photo to share with you later. The doilies and candleholders were only 25-50 cents each. I didn't even spend $5 total and I also purchased some paper doilies that are not in the picture.
I love to go to garage sales especially when I find some wonderful antique items for a little of nothing. Speaking of...I am planning on having a garage sale here soon so wish me luck. I have been digging out things from every knook and cranny in this house and I still have a lot of work to do!
Have a wonderful day filled with blessings~
