Score!

Cranky Mama and I went yard-saling today and it was so much fun! We hit an estate sale too. Just threw up a few pics of some vintage finds that I'm thrilled about.

Vintage sock monkey. Scored for five bucks. She's drying out on the porch. I gave her a sponge bath. After she dries I'm going to mend her arms and legs.

I have a stack of these mags with great vintage ads. GREAT ads! I need to find a project that I can use them for. I'll post some funny ones that I come across.

This complete train set was a buck! My son is actually playing with it right now. He's super nutty over trains.

I won't bore you with the rest of my finds. I've never been to an estate sale before and I've never gotten out of bed early enough to get the goods at a yard sale. Score! Score! Score! I'm having e-bay fantasies right about now. Hmmm....

Screwy, do you and Rach still hit that estate auction? Is it on Fridays? Free coffee and cookies?

Mtn. Faerie,

Catchy Pseu's wife went last night and got two swivel recliners for $15. It's every Friday on Craven St.

We haven't gone for ages, but we're thinking next Friday might the right time to start again. Shall we?
