Yard Sale Haul

I don’t usually post on the weekends, but my daughter and I went to a few yard sales this morning.

I know, that explains everything, right?

Well, I haven’t actually been out yard-saling all summer.  ALL. Summer.

And summer is almost over!

So when we had nothing else going on this morning, we raced out the door.

We spent the big bucks – $4 smackers.

Our Yard Sale Haul

A giant cupcake pan.  That was my daughter’s idea.  She’s been wanting one of these for about four years.  Guess what kind of birthday cake she’s getting this year!

A feed sack, except it’s a salt sack.  As soon as I find myself a sewing machine that works, I’m going to cut it down and make a pillow out of it.

And a vintage glass.  There was only one, but the guy having the sale threw it in for nothing.

Here’s a better look at the glass.  I’m going to be on a mission to find a few more.

Then my daughter got a tropical print maxi dress.  It looks like she should be wearing it in Hawaii.  Unfortunately, I can’t photograph it because it’s in the wash.  She wants to wear it tomorrow.

And my favorite find….

A pair of vintage wooden acrobats.  They flip over the bar when you turn the knob on the side.

Aren’t they the cutest?  They’re sitting on my desk, because I like to be surrounded by cute junk when I work.  It has to be cute though, or else I’ll trash it in the name of mental clarity.

These acrobats are super-cute.

And all for $4 dollars.  I’d say it was a bargain.

What about you…Do you stop for yard sales?
