Today was a hit & miss I do believe . I didn't think I found much till we got home and I laid it all out on my bench out front , before I brought it all in the house.
I found two items I am crazy about and the rest well maybe a friend or two will take a few items?
First I went to a neighbors house sale and bought a big box of sewing items, I bought it unopened just hoping there would be some buttons in the box and there is but nothing to brag about . The box was $5.00, lots metal zippers and lace binding , thread etc
Then another neighbor sale 2 blue bowls , the trim was in the box of sewing notions
Mt favorite find !!!!!!!any old tin box full of old vintage lace I love this lace, at first I thought it was over priced then after I counted how many pieces I have it's not over priced. I bought it at the Methodist church sale
This is a poster framed I thought I could hang in my studio powder room however a friend buys old perfume bottles for her powder room she may want this and that is what I was thinking of when I purchased it . Jo ??
two long glittery scarfs, a grey one and black one and an old white velvet hat
tablecloth
feed sack
The tablecloth, feed sack , picture frame and old plate I gave $1.25 , lady was closing her sale
I like this old plate even though it has a big crack across it
green lamp base $1.00
These are large shells , I added them to my tray setting on my front porch $1.00 each, people said they picked them up in St Petersburg Florida, they had them laying all in their flower beds
I like this old tin 50 cents and all the scissors was in the sewing box of items
Flower pot , green flour sifter , syrup , ice pick, and bottle stopper , meat hammer , coke bottle opener, hat box , ice cream scoop, where I bought these items the man gave me a galvanized bucket I didn't get it in the picture
Two bottles unopened of Arbone hand lotion and a basket birthday candles , even had my next birthday number in it 39 LOL, got these at the church sale
$1.00 for this bracelet with all the stones
An apron I bought for another friend , it was priced $2.00 I gave $1.00 for it washed ironed and on an hanger
There is a little cardboard suitcase and some old tins you can't see , also a cradle shaped basket the old lace is in. I had a good haul I think now that I look at it. Better than any flea market I have been to and I spent $41.00 today , I kept count this time . Now I am going out to eat crab legs with a friend tonight
Buttons that was in the sewing box
It was a fun morning and I didn't think I found anything LOL
Well now I have to get all these treasure tucked away so I don't look like a hoarder LOL

I love the finds you had this week. I would have bought most of them myself! I especially noticed the tomato spoons on the side bar. I did a post about one last week and just this afternoon polished up the one I found. I love the one I have and hope to find more.
ReplyDeleteOh! my goodness! Look at all the treasures!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that vintage lace! When I flea market shop or go junkin.... I always look for the fabric and notions. I also liked the tin with the scissors.
Thank you for sharing.
