*Cute spots*
"Above you see 5 ceramic knick knack animals" I went to 10 garage sales this Sat and I only bought stuff from my very last one.


(Which are the cuties above) I asked the Seller how much he wanted for all 5. He said $2.00 (I was so happy) So I said I would take them and then I saw the Eternity perfume. I asked how much, He said: "You can have it, so you can smell good for him *looked over at Mr. Coconut* later" I WAS STOAKED!


A 100 ml bottle costs $92.00

Now I can feel like this

FOR FREE

Thanks to a Random man





Which reminded me of over a month back when I bought I new bottle of Thierry Mugler Illusion for 0.50 cents (Which I love by the way)


*Hawaii leaf dish 0.50*


*Silver plated vanity tray engraved with a S*

After some research I found out this is a tray from 1890's most likely.

Made by Fenton Brothers
$1.00


*Rose tray 0.75 cents*

What is with me and little trinket trays?! I keep buying them, can't stop!

Have you seen The Secondhand Years post? She got a cute "SHAKE IT" dress from E-bay for 99p. It has the most amazing ruffles. Which reminds me of the apron I bought on Friday from a thrift shop.



Today when I tried this on I instantly wanted to bake something. I got it in a $5.00 bag sale I went to on Friday. Okay so I have mentioned two bag sales I went to which might be the reason why my Grandma calls me [The Bag Lady.] *lol*
So I told PastCaring the only thing she was missing with her little dress was some maracas. Well I didn't wanna miss out on any fun.... and since I don't own maracas just yet. (Don't you worry I will) I had something just as good.

Glorious Garage Grabs Flamingo flamenco (Pic Heavy)

"Meet my two new friends"


Friday afternoon I was going through Garage sale ads and I seen one that had a (What will be sold list) On that list was 2 PiNk FlAmInGoS.


From that moment on I was determined to get these two. And obviously I did what I set out to do.


Sadly the nice lady did not know where their legs went. *Lucky* I have flamingo health insurance, and they shall soon be able to stand on their own two rods in the near future.


Now lets get the the rest of my sale finds of the day.


~*Chanel Bath Powder*~



Big round 8 oz 226g


The container is full and looks as though the original owner maybe only used it a couple times. "Ebay told me I done good!" I got this gem for $1 from the lady who also sold me the flamingos.


~*70's Groovy Hippo Candle*~
50 cents


~*Round wicker look purse*~


Anyone know anything about these? I found a few online some were listed as 70's others 80's. To me it looked older when I purchased it, but now I am not too sure.






~*Lipstick & Nail polish holder*~



Purchased from Flamingo lady *lol* "If only she knew.. what I call her..

Will be heading to my "Vanity area"

$1


~*Home Garden Book*~



What a cute house that is! I love the yard!



~*Vintage Daisy Skirt*~


$1.50


Size: 16


(Too big for me.. But I looked it over very well before buying and thought it should be quite easy to make a few sizes smaller)


Has a cute metal zip. Also it had some tissue in the pocket.. (Uhggg..)


which had lipstick kisses on them.. I wonder if they were vintage kisses? LOL


REGARDLESS


I threw them away.. sorry.. But they were red!



~*CHRISTMAS IN JULY!!*~


These lights have bakelite plug ins.

~*Plastic umbrella cover with fringe*~


It's currently airing out.. previous owners must have had stuff stored for quite some time.. smells a little musty! It is draped over a modern smaller patio umbrella.. I hope to find a vintage one soon.

$1



~*Green wood bead necklace*~

50 cents


~*King Leopard bed set*~



"Didn't have a price.. I was sort of thinking they would be pricey.. I almost didn't even bother asking. I thought the seller would at least say $10.00."

Finally I decided I may as well just find out..

She said: $2


BOY WAS I EXCITED!


*MrreeeeowwWWWWW*


~*Vintage fabric*~


~*Vintage Fabric*~




~*New never opened Tex Made flannel sheet*~

"This is something I have been wanting for A LONG TIME..."


I came across two last year for prices higher than I wanted to pay(One blue One Pink). I then came across a brown one with an okay price.. tested it at the store & it started SMOKING!!! My God.. The store stuck in that area for the rest of the time I was in there.

Today I found this gorgeous *GREEEEEN* beauty on sale for $5

plugged her in and she sounded like she as purring and heated up in seconds.

"YYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAY"






"Oh dear.. you caught me at a bad time.. *hehe*






I love the settings (Synthetic Wigs) (Natural Wigs) *lol*

I may start having to invest in some wigs... *wink*




~*1967 tea towel calendar*~

50 cents


~*Purple dress*~

75 cents




Surely will not fit my body. But Galaxie my mannequin should have no problem.. the scrawny broad!
So there you have it. That is what I picked up from other peoples yards and brought into my own.



Also today was the second day of wearing contacts. I got them in pretty quickly, they did not bother me at all for the 5 hrs I was supposed to keep them in. I got them out ummm alright.. I still need more practice. For some reason that is the harder part for me. *lol*



Hopefully you all are having a great weekend.
