It felt really good to get into estate sale land today. The past few weekends I have had other plans or been out of town, so I needed that estate sale fix.
I hit three sales today (and one yesterday).
This pixie was starting out at me from a kitchen cupboard. I was happy to find him. The Shiny Brite boxes it the background are 10 boxes of vintage pink ornaments in the original boxes.
It was 102 here yesterday! I think this vintage fan will be put to use. Great base color! The auto kit will head to Etsy.
Lots of this and that. I dug through bags of misc. at one sale. I was happy to uncover two vintage Christmas corsages and some old tin molds.
A child's shoebox for my collection and a Christmas tree. I think the tree holds cards.
Quite a few sweet Christmas ornaments.
A nice ceramic Santa and a holiday stocking.
A super egg shaped candy box and a candle intended to be burned each birthday to mark a passing year.
An assortment of vintage wrapping paper
One of the sales I hit was an old fruit market closing. I got old racks and store display pieces. I don't find them super often. I found two that are often referred to as "chip clip stands". The black rack will hold boxes or containers. The metal signs are like garden stakes.
I also found 6 "chip clip" style that have a hanger on one end. Here they are holding a couple of vintage children's records I found.
I was happy to find the crepe paper flowers too. I divided those that I had the other day between two vases and was thrilled to find more today to plump up my arrangements.
It was so nice to be out hunting in estate sale land. I am heading out again tomorrow and hope to find more treasures. This is the season of estate sales!
