Friday again. Hit a number of sales and while I didn't hit the jackpot like last week's barn sale, I did squeak out some good stuff.
Vintage wrapping paper (total obsession of mine), plastic favor baskets and some old garland.
A bunch of old bingo markers and numbers that came with the cards, a couple of Tavern Christmas tree candles, a bunch of old dice and some old hand made ribbon roses which will be put to great craft use.
Crazy amount of Bingo cards (all in patriotic red and blue), and a very chippy old metal cabinet with old decal.
The bingo cards will live with these guys in my studio. Evidently I think I can never have enough Bingo cards.
And my favorite find of all...
A white metal motel chair for $10. It is in wonderful shape and will join a pair that already resides in my backyard.
It was a fairly good Friday...hope yours was too!
Wow! You got some awesome finds! Have a great weekend!
Take care, Laura

Gotta ask: will you leave the cabinet as is or paint? (there is no right or wrong answer as far as I'm concerned - just curious after debating this myself)

So does your family call you a magpie too because you are also attracted to shiny objects! Or, I mean distracted by shiny objects!!
I think you did very well... I might call this a jackpot haul myself if I found this stuff.
