Estate Sale - Harlem GA

I went to an awesome Estate Sale this weekend. Just the kind of sale I love - lots of junk to look through. I found a ton of smalls for my Etsy shop. I only bought a couple of things for myself. The pictures are not so great, took them at a bad time of day I guess. But here we go (warning - lots of pictures):

I am keeping the J.M. Fields hat box. I just love the graphics on it.

 I love these glasses, I wish they would fit me but they are too small. 

I listed these vintage powder puffs (but kept one for myself).

Filled up this little box with old jewelry, came away with a lovely sterling charm bracelet and lots of sterling charms.

I thought these old eye glass cases were pretty cool.

Really unusual earrings, they are really stunning!

More old Sheaffer's Pens.

Hard to see in the photo, but I bought the bronze greyhound bookends for myself. 

I have found a lot of the old Easter eggs made in Germany, but never like these. 

Trying to figure out for the WDW pin stands for. It has an old clasp on it.

Smile!

I thought this was a beautiful piece, carved bone necklace.

Here are some better pictures as I was getting ready to list some of these items on Etsy.

It was a fun sale! Hope you went out and found a fun sale of your own!

Estate Sale Finds

It's been a slow couple of weeks in estate sale land for me, lots of sales but just not my kind of stuff. I was really itching to go to the Peachtree 23 longest yard sale today but Mom did not feel like going and I didn't want to go by myself. I tell you I am really in need of a junk fix. Here are my slim pickings for the past two weeks:

I did find some really cute vintage girls clothing in excellent condition, usually I do not find them in this kind of shape. I was glad not to have to soak and clean them. They just require a light pressing and they are ready to go to our Etsy shop.

Vintage purses seemed to be a theme for me on my last couple of picks, a beautiful crochet purse and two beaded purses (made in France and Belgium). The two beaded purses are in pretty bad shape but they were just too lovely and dainty not to take home. They cost me a whole $2, they will go on my misfit shelf for display.

I think she is a dashboard Madonna, not sure really. Found at the Catholic Social Services.

I love old band-aid tins, did you ever notice they are almost always filled with old nails?

A glass drawer pull. You never know when you might need one.

1870's Ready Reckoner Book.

A very lovely vintage umbrella with a rhinestone handle.

This is plated but still pretty.

I have never run across a witch cookie cutter before, have you?

Probably my favorite find over the last couple of weeks, LOVE this vintage box of Birthday candles. Already at home in it's new spot on my misfit shelf.

I scored some really nice cocktail napkins and dinner napkins, these will be going to our Etsy shop.

I bought this little rustic shelf for me, I can use to display some of my much loved small trinkets.

On another note, my sister found these chairs in the Goodwill. They are now in my Dining Room. They are hand made and in fantastic shape. I am very picky about chairs and have been living with the old ugly ones I have had for years until I could find just the right set. When I laid eyes on these I knew they were the ones!

Hope you are enjoying your weekend and if you have been out junking I hope you found some wonderful vintage treasures!
