Yard Sale Treasures


I've been out and about at yard sales the past few weeks, but it's been slim pickings around here. Fortunately I finally had some luck this weekend! I found a lamp for my new sewing and crafting space. I saw it when I pulled up to the sale. I thought some other ladies were going to snatch it up, but I got there first. It set me back a whole $2! I couldn't believe it! I bought another lamp very similar at Home Goods a couple of years ago and unfortunately I paid A LOT more than that. I was super happy with my find! I can't wait to see it when we finish painting the furniture black.



The next sale I went to had a little paper back book I have been on the lookout for since last summer. I was so excited and it only cost 25 cents! Animal, Vegetable, Miracle is pretty good so far, I like the author's writing style.



Well, that was it for me this weekend. I am hoping to find some baskets and accessories for my new sewing space during my next yard sale adventures! Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Head on over to Rhoda's at Southern Hospitality for Thrifty Treasures. I love seeing what everyone else found during their adventures!

Until next time,
