Yesterday's yard sale finds


My daughter called yesterday and said she saw a couple of Yard sales that looked like we just had to go and look at.  I was a little bit reluctant, and I was doing some projects at home, but she came and picked me up anyway.  I scraped together $7.00 cash and said lets go.  I wondered if I could find much for only seven dollars. Well the following is exactly what I found for my $7.00
Two lovely perfume bottles that I got so excited about when I saw the glass stoppers and the lovely patterned glass.
 This pretty embossed ivory vase.  I love the gold trim on the rim.  Looks like Lenox, but don't know if it is or not!
 I love this bread tray and had to have it with it's toile-ware design.
 Here is a perfect little music box.  Wind it up and it plays Silent Night.
 I was excited about these little brooms, as I was just looking for those the other day and wondered if I had any left.  for witches brooms or snowmen too.
None of these things are actually vintage, but certainly have the look.  I will have fun with all of them, and am so happy that my daughter invited me to go and look with her to those two yard sales.

Great finds--don't you wish garage sales took debit cards? :)

Looks like you got some nice finds. You really did good with the perfume bottles. I was going to collect them several years ago and found that it could become an expensive hobby. I have a few, and would only buy another if it was at a super great price.
Have a great week.

Lovely finds, Michele! Doesn't really matter if they're vintage or not if they make you happy, right?!

Wishing you a wonderful weekend, my friend!
