Yard Sale Treasures

Time to share some Thrifty Treasures. I was not able to check out any of the local yards sales on Saturday. I spent the day driving to Moscow, Idaho......about a 5 hour drive....one way.....to pick up my son Chris. But I do have some treasures to share with you.


This first treasure is my absolute favorite!!! It is going to look fabulous on my enclosed porch! Well....once I layer it in some loverly linens, pillows, and throws...oh my. :) I was at one of my junkin' spots and trying to decide if I wanted the black iron bed that was for sale, when my friend who was having the sale suggested that I might like the bed he just picked up. I thought it was broken at first glance, then I realized that it folded up so it could be easily stored. Loved it, bought it and the black iron bed too!! Gotta roll like that sometimes!

Here she is folded


She is really easy to open up!

Ta Da!! Isn't she sweet??? Her price was unbelievable too.

On the way to Moscow I did stop at a couple of sales and picked up 4 more decorating books, the boxwood wreath and vintage magazine stand. All the books for under $10. Can you believe it? I was so happy.

I can't wait to check out the eye candy in these new books.

I'm linking up with Rhoda's for "Today's Thrifty Treasures"

Finally a good yard sale...Yeah!

Is it just me or is anyone else having trouble finding a good yard sale. Most of the sales in our neck of the woods have been children's clothes, toys, baby items etc. Don't get me wrong, when my boys were little, I lived for those types of yard sales. Some of their favorite toys were bought at yard sales! Then I finally hit on a good, what I dream of.......yard sale with vintage treasures!

My first treasure is probably my favorite!! Rusty, beautiful, 5 arms. This is going in my laundry/mudroom.

Three sweet little jars, and egg scale and a vintage bowl that I will be using for one of my plants.

I wasn't sure at first what this was. I knew it was a vice of some sorts. I just knew that I had to have it. I was told it is used to hold a hand saw so that it may be sharpened.

Two cast iron legs off of an old bathtub. Can you believe 50 cents each for these beauties!!

Rusty, chippy, uniquely beautiful!

This little gem I actually picked up at the thrift store. $1.99. I love it because it is divided into three sections and it resembles mercury glass.

Tried to get a close up. It is really beautiful in person.

My new handled dust pan. Lovin' the green.

This will be perfect for farmer's market, the beach.....etc. its

quite large and roomy. Only 50 cents!!

Can you tell what my new favorite color is??
