Days gone by...

Wow! It has been 2 weeks since our last post! Where has the time gone? I guess the saying the older you get the faster time seems to go by is true! Well, as the days go by and we age, we are still gonna be out there looking for some good old junk! Yesterday was a rainy kinda day, not many yard/estate sales, but we happened upon one that filled my car completely full. We got an old sewing table,5 chairs and a lot of odds and ends stuffed in there. Oh, and my daughter was sitting in the back seat somewhere too.

This is a longer post than usual in attempt to make up for the 2 weeks that we did not blog.... So bear with us! Today we took some lovely stuff out to This Old House to fill in our space that we rent. Here are a few pictures of the store. Kathy sold 5 aprons today! Woo Hoo!

This Old House is going to be having a May Day sale. (on May 1st) They will have numerous vendors set up outside of the store, some fun giveaways and even a May Day pole!

Gotta love the petticoat and cowboy boots!

Today we went to the Flea Market at the Fairgrounds. We did not find anything super wonderful, just a few vintage post cards and valentines.

Fun Friday finds

Wow!!!! What a day! Yes Timi, the Junk Gods were with us today. It's funny how some days are just like that. You can go to twenty sales in one day and find oodles and oodles of stuff and other times you can go to one hundred and twenty(well, maybe not quite that many, but you know what I mean) and find absolutely NOTHING. At one sale, Jen spied a Madame Alexander doll halfway across the yard and made a beeline for it. It is like one she had when she was little, only hers has blond hair.

See this black tulle, rick racky, rose topped thing?? This is what modern ladies of the 50's and 60's wore on their head to look a bit stylish when they hand those horribly ugly rollers in their hair. Yep, you betcha, that did the trick. No one would ever guess that you were waiting for your hair to dry.

Oh, my gosh! Do I need more fabric? Well, certainly, especially when it's adorable polka dots and yummy paisleys and everything else in between. I just might have to move my sewing machine to the front porch to make room for MORE fabric! Oh well, such is life!

This is a Pottery Barn Kids wicker basket on wheels...but as you can guess this liner will go bye-bye and some of that fun fabric will be put to use to make a new one.

I have to tell ya'll, I learned to get my seat belt undone(remember my left arm is in a sling?) all by myself today!! I'm a big girl now. No really, when a yard sale is within my sight I have to prepare to roll out of the car. I can't let Jen get all of the good stuff.
