Weekend finds....


I love garage sales, flea markets, estate sales....on Friday I hit an Estate Sale it was the first I had to put my name on a list and wait in line to even enter the house. Waiting outside for half an hour chomping a the bit to get in was killing me. But I found some good finds.

 I bought this perfect condition Gnome coffee table book....why I don't know, other than I remember it from when I was a child and it was in perfect condition.


Stain Glass Tulip

 German Christmas Pyramid


Delft plant holder

Not sure why I needed this other than I love the colors!


Have a wonderful MONDAY!!

Fun finds! Interesting how the estate sale was conducted. I always wonder at the treasures and how loved they were when the person who originally owned them acquired them. In our work, when a person dies often the survivors sell off everything in the estate.....More often than not. I have come to realize that what one considers a treasure to "pass down" may not be appreciated by the heirs. Most of the time it is all about the money. Sad, huh? xoxo

It looks like it was worth the wait. I have done a few of those myself getting up the crack of dawn to get a number and stand in line. Enjoy my friend! xo

You did really well. I can't believe you found that German Christmas pyramid. Those are super expensive. I have wanted one for years. Lucky you!

I love your treasures. My sis and I used to go to estate sales where putting your name on the list or getting a number was the norm. I think it depends on who's running the estate sale.

Have you ever been to an estate sale auction? Those are fun and you can get some pretty good deals too.
