More Saturday finds

I am all at once , over whelmed with all the stuff I have in my house. I need to stay home and quit going to yard sales and thrift shops and estate sales. Somebody STOP me LOL


However there is a real good estate sale this coming up Saturday that I want to go to then I'm quitting for the summer??  LOL  ( hope so ,  HELP me

 I  was headed to Good will Saturday morning when I remember an estate sale listed in the garage sale section of the paper and thought might as well stop at one yard sale, right?
Any way I found a lot of stuff and I had so much in my arms I told the young man in charge can I make a pile ? and you watch it for me , he agreed. so when I went back for my second swipe through the yard and garage I found a lot of small things I hadn't seen in a long time and now I wonder why I even brought it all home ? Like I said I am just over whelmed .

First things I seen I liked was old linens just laid out on a coffee table and I started digging through it and a red & white piece jumped out at me with red monogramming on it then I seen an old pillow case looking thing with more monogramming then another then another so I had my arms full again and I found a paper sack and stuffed it full, all the while there was no prices on any thing but I really wanted theses dirty lines , ( i knew oxiclean and me could clean them up ).

See the MW monogram
these picture are after I soaked and washed them  them

                                                                                                                                                             
          two more pieces , sorry about the shade in the picture                                        

               

   

           


Then these bottles which I liked , I gave $10. for all the linens  and the bottles

                                                                               
         I like the long neck one and it even has a wicker cover for the screw top    

 
this was my first swipe through the garage and yard

 then I went back and found just a lot of smalls like 3 Budweiser beer openers and a red handle kitchen items, glass ash tray, tin pan, vinegar jar  3 perfume bottle one says Paris and a little glass creamer all  for $1.50
I didn't get the little red wooden handle pie trimmer in the picture or the perfume bottles

                                                                                         
Then I went to a favorite place of mine that some people says they never find any thing good at
I was ready to leave after finding some old Stix Baer & Fuller  hat boxes, any way Pete came in he has a booth at this place and he said he had just cleaned out his garage per his wife's instructions LOL

He brought this old leather hat box in and set it down and my eyes went straight  to it , I love boxes and this was an old leather hat box with the hat inside . I ask him what he wanted for the box and he gave me a price and took the top hat out I said oh I want the hat also . So after we agreed on the price here is its picture

                                                                   

                                                                             

                                                                               
Inside the hat it says Quicy Illinois
  

         Then at the Goodwill I found 2 silver trays I wanted which I have lots of these also              

   

All together , I really could fill a booth at one of our local malls. I am thinking of starting an etsy shop this fall to unload some of my many treasures. So if you see something you like let me know
A friend that has a vintage shop in town has ask me to set up an outside booth at her up coming sale. I said it will have to cool way down for me to stand outside . Her shop is full of vintage formals etc

   
Oh the hat boxes

     Anyway its fun and fun to hunt it's all about the thrill of the hunt ?     right
