Arrg Matey, There Be Treasure Here!!


I joining:
Linda at Coastal Charm for Nifty Thrifty Tuesdays


Dianne at A Picture is Worth 1,000 Words for Second Time Around Tuesday


Saturday's Treasure Hunt turned out to be great!

but at other sales too.
There was SO much to look at in many different buildings at the Estate Sale.
Very overwhelming...yippeeee! LOL
It was held by an Estate Sale Service,
so the prices were not as inexpensive as I would have liked. 
But there was still good buys to be had.

This is what I ended up comming home with...

Inspire pillow, Holiday Handkercheif,
cute litte heart shaped Pillows...   



Such a sweet Baby's Bonnet

Holiday Diecuts, old post cards (1918), old Easter Bunnies,
tiny Bottle Brush Wreaths,
Sweet Candle Sconce (I'm keeping it, love the color!)
and sweet chalkware Puppies in a Basket...this one has hooks on the bottom.

Everthing in the box was $6.00.
See the Bunny with the blue jacket above right,
this is what is has on the bottom.
Haven't seen this before.
So I actually got all these for $5.95 ;)


There were some garden statuary...
even after one couple loaded up their truck!
I walked out with these precious babies.
$10.00 each


So I spent a total of $36.00, 
Not to to bad. 

When we got back into town we headed
downtown to see if there were any Garage Sales.

Spied one, stopped and
found out she really wanted to get rid of everything!
Oil Lamp $3
didn't really want or need it but for $3!!
Old Coffeepot .50
The metal items .75 for all
Old Dust Pan .10

Cute little Bangle .50

Wine Trivia Cards .50 (good for Altered Art)
The Enamleware cups were $1 a set,didn't need them either but for a buck!
Glass Candlestick .50


Then on the way home we passed the Museum...
The Historical Society was having a Yard Sale in front!
OOOO Lots of tables and great goodies!!
I couldn't park the car fast enough!

We walked up and they told us everything was half price..
YEE HAW!!!

All the very old books were .25 ea

Shell box .50

OH and BTW do you see what all my finds are in?

  11. Having read this I thought it was really enlightening.
    I appreciate you taking the time and energy to put this information together.
    I once again find myself personally spending a significant amount of time both reading and
    leaving comments. But so what, it was still worth it!
