I am feeling pretty lucky as I hit sales four days in a row this weekend. Thursday and Friday have already been featured in posts. I was not planning on hitting sales on Saturday. I ran to Target, but on the way home there was a sale. I had to stop.
A pumpkin blowmold, vintage Christmas and a few styrofoam trees for crafting.It is always good to find Christmas, especially mercury glass picks and glass garland.
On Sunday I decided to hit the hoarder doll house sale (from Friday) again for half price. I had signed up on the list for Sunday when I left on Friday so I was number three to get in today.
Let me tell you there was lots of shrieking from the remaining dolls when I walked in the door. Quite a few still need a new home.
I could not leave them behind.
They gave me that look.
Naked men and boys even shouted at me this time!
I also grabbed some vintage doll shoes.
The kewpie (minus arms) will live in my cabinet of curiosities. The little cat with the guitar looks to be singing him a tune of his rescue. I also got some toy silverware.
I don't remember the last time I got lucky in estate sale land four days in a row. What a weekend!
Hurray and happy day!
Okay......4 days in a row? You're more than lucky!I think I would've gone out and bought a lottery ticket! Those dolls had to have been screaming pretty loud especially since they didn't make it home with you the first go around. I'm sure you're just hearing sighs of relief from them now hee hee hee. Blow mold and vintage Christmas too........SIGH
I haven't been able to get out so at least I can enjoy your goodies :-)
Glad you had some Happy Days.
Thanks for sharing!

Such sweet doll faces. And naked boys - Oh My!
I think, if I ever got married again, I would carry a bouquet of mercury picks. Wouldn't that be lovely?

I am so relieved that someone besides me is drawn to dolls that are just a little on the creepy side. Just last weekend my Grand told me that my dolls were creeping her out because they are naked. I love "the look" your new friends were giving you!

Those dolls. Those sweet little dolls!! I'm so envious. I rescue them as often as I can, but I just don't see them very much...never at half off. You lucky lucky lady!

Good for you! I went to three garage sales Saturday and came home with absolutely nothing! Very cute cat cup!

I love the 3rd day of estate sales! I often find something and the prices are so much better! I'm so glad those dolls have a new home!

Were your ears burning yesterday? I was telling my husband all about your estate adventures and how unbelievable it is that you hit so many. I'm telling you, there is NOTHING around here - and we're in a very populated area. Jealousy is my name!

Hahahahaha! They are so freaking scary!
Glad you had a fabulous estate sale weekend, we have pretty much nothing around here.

I'm amazed that so many dolls were left. So glad you rescued them. Nice haul all around. I don't think I could do 4 days in a row......wow!

I would have had to stop as well! Yikes Ethel, with all your finds, you should have your own TV show!!!

Those are Nancy Ann storybook dolls (minus their clothes of course). I just bought a big lot of them at an estate sale and sold them for a good chunk of change. Cute!
