I was number six to get into the sale today. I signed up on the list yesterday to get in. I slept well knowing that I would get in the door right off the bat.
When I signed up yesterday, the woman running the sale said the family had taken quite a bit of the stuff. I was a little worried about that comment, but they family left enough for me!
Old Christmas light bulbs, a honey can full of tree branches (cute graphics on the honey can), Christmas corsages, a spun angel and old jello molds
A bingo game, old plastic party-ware in original packaging and some old sprigs of spring flowers.
Horse playing cards, reflectors and tons of Valentine's Day Dennison stickers.Smaller ornaments in original boxes all nice and tidy. Old jingle bells and other assorted holiday. My favorite find was the flock of honeycomb birds.
It was a good day to find Christmas reflectors.
It was also a good day to find a huge stash of vintage Easter grass.
It was a good day in estate sale land.
Headed down to Oregon State University in Corvallis to spend my first official mom's weekend with Ben at college...looking forward to seeing that kid!
Happy Weekend to all!
Would you look at all that incredible loot!
I am salivating here! :)
Congrats my dear! xox!

Oh Laurie...these come to you to be saved for sure. Your hauls look like shops to me. I love the spun heads...gorgeous. The trellis girl is super. Thanks for the refund. I had trouble placing them in my cart to checkout...they kept getting bought before my paypal process completed. Imagine that! Smiles...Renee

Wowzer! Our sales around here NEVER have the loot/crafty/holiday stuff like you find again and again! The honey can is cute! Love the Easter Grass (packaging)! I have a couple of old packs with cardboard headers I just love! Have fun at college, ha!
