Garage Sale Paraphernalia

Did that make you feel sad? *LOL* "He's lying" I go home midway through and let him out and play with him before I do the other area of town.

I found some vintage dresses today, but will post them in the next post.


For now it's the Paraphernalia
I just posted on someones blog the other day that I want more bracelets. I have a small assortment but had not found many at all recently. Well lately for me if I think I want something.. I usually come across it within a few weeks.



Bangle set $1


*Confetti Lucite Stretch $2*

*AHHHHHHHH*


I gotta say I purchased this at the first garage sale I hit. I wore it ALL DAY!
My guy and I made up a (stupid) game. When we found something good at a sale I would celebrate with a little shake of the arm and dance. *hahahaha*

This bracelet is loud and fun

Price paid: $2




*Big glass dish (Made in Indonesia)*

50 cents




*Powder holder*

$1


I keep looking for vintage baby books. I want one for my future munchkin.

This one I found today is from 1967. It has not been written in at all. The only flaw is the black felt mark on the front. So as of now this will be baby Coconuts (Who does not exist yet *lol*) baby book. Unless I find something older in the next year n a half or so. My Dad was with me when I was getting it and he said (Why would you want that? Your kid woun't be born in 1967) *LOL* "Uhggg yea I know Dad considering I wasn't alive then that sort of makes sense" I explained I want a vintage baby book and I will buy new one when I am Pregnant and then when my kid is older they can decide which they want. (Vintage or new) It does mean I will have double the filling out to do.. but it seems like the only answer.



Just look at the cute pictures!







Doilies $1




*These just keep popping up lately!*

$1





*I love the colors*

50 cents

Now this part of the post is for 1950's_atomic_ranch_house
She did a post about a sweet little horse she purchased off E-bay that arrived with broken legs *Sniff*. I never knew anything about these sort of horses and don't even know if I had ever seen one in my lifetime. Well it happened again... she wrote her post 2 days ago. I found these horses today!

One big one and one little one. The little one is yours if you want it Ranchie.

(Let me know I bought it for you)

And I think I know why yours didn't make it..


It seems with age these horses can kind of corrode. After getting them home I was looking over the big horse and he has some wounds I can see into this crack on his front And there is some fine cracking going on around his back leg. So I will keep him in a safe area where his leg will hopefully stay on and we don't have to deal with a tragedy.




The man who sold me these horses was 72 years old. He told me he saved up his money and purchased the big one for $7 at the age of 7.
That would make big horse 65 years old.



Little horse from what I can see is in very good condition with no scars or sores.


The plant stand, glass bowl and the horses came from ("The horse man") Last week we heard about Flamingo lady.. I wonder who I will meet next time.

Any of you shop this weekend? What did you find?
