Estate Sales

I haven't bought much since the Peachtree 23 Yard Sale. There just haven't been that many sales happening around here lately that have my kind of stuff. I did manage to hit a few and here are some of the things I picked up:

My brother and I road out to a sale in Warrenton GA the week of July 4th, not much but I do love the pin up Calendars and also picked up a trunk of old doll clothes marked 1920's. I think the clothes might be 1930's though and look to be made from feed sack material. I love the little red sun suit.

















I picked up this sweet little Christmas card box (filled with some little treasures) at a dealer going out of business sale.



I stopped at 2 estate sales yesterday and didn't find much. I came hope with mostly books and paper.






















Really hoping we get a good junky sale around here soon!

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!

Estate Sale - Antique Store Liquidation

The Antique Store that I purchased all the Storybook Dolls at is going out of business (maybe why I got the dolls so cheap). They advertised a liquidation sale in the paper this week so I ran down yesterday at lunch to check it out. I was a little disappointed as most of the prices were the same as the last time I was there. I didn't buy very much but did find a few things.

This was my best buy I think ($15), I am not sure exactly what it is (if you know help me out). It was tagged as a vintage oak picture frame but I don't think it is a picture frame. I think it is some kind of menu board or bulletin board. It looks like it was made to change things out frequently judging by the hinged back.




I am not sure what I am going to do with it yet but I think this piece has lots of potential. I love it!!

Here are the rest of my meager findings:

I love this vintage fabric and got a good bit for $5. I often pick up vintage picture frames, they just have such charm. Two vintage beaded purses (I don't even know why I bought these?? I guess they just looked like they needed rescuing). A small camel cigarette tin that will be used for storage.









On Friday night, I bought tickets to take the Red Headed Girls to see Peter Pan presented by the Greater Augusta Youth Theatre. We ate at the Boll Weevil Cafe downtown before the show. They loved the play and we had a wonderful time. Their mother and I have decided that this will be a tradition going forward. I love making memories with these sweet girls!

The Strawberry Cake was Delicious!!


Had to get a photo in front of the Theatre.



It's been a wonderful Weekend! Hope you are having a good one too!
