I am so in need of a really good digger sale. This time of the year is like a drought in estate sale land (despite the cat and dog rain here today). Friday there was not much advertised so I hit a couple antique malls. Today I hit the second day of a sale. The sale had such great potential but the prices were so insane. I only bought one thing.
Vintage water bottle box marked Tissue paper.
I used old crepe paper for crafts (better than the new stuff) and this box also had some random crepe paper hats. Bonus was a Halloween hat, a flapper girl blower and a Halloween blower.
The blower didn't look like much but when I rolled out the coil of paper I found good Halloween graphics.
The malls and shops I hit on Friday were decent. I did score a few fun things.
One child's bathing cap for my collection. What made this cap awesome was the design molded into the rubber. It is made to resemble hair..bangs, curls and a few flowers tucked in for fun.
One hot water bottle in a fish shape. I hope to frame it and display it in my someday beach house.
My super duper favorite find of the day was this old folding bar cart/tv tray. I paid $12 for it and have not seen one like it before.
It folds out flat with two shelves.
It folds up in the back so you basically have half the cart and still have two shelves.
And then in folds up all the way for easy storage! Plus it has wheels. It is a crazy cool cart!
Not a wonderful day in estate sale/mall land, but at least I did find some things. Chomping at the bit for a decent sale. Hoping next weekend brings a great sale and vintage treasures.
Happy Day!
