As promised, here are some of my finds from
the World's Longest Yard Sale.
After taking and editing all these photos I realized I left some things out.
Like the polka dot glasses (they really need to be cleaned), a
couple of stools (still on the front porch where I left/forgot about them),
a shelf with really cute old brackets (I might take the brackets off and get rid of the shelf)
and possibly some other little things I stashed and will find at a future date.
But here is the bulk of my haul!
6 sets of vintage salt and pepper shakers!
A pair of old wood tennis racquets...love these!
A biscuit jar (yes, the one I didn't know what it was...ahem).
A Kitchen King corn shaped butter dish.
An old whisk broom!
I bought this bird because I was inspired
by that Pier 1 commercial where the girl takes a photo
of a similar bird
and the bird says "Are you going to tweet this?"
Yes, yes, I am!
(After I paint it to hide the chipped bits.)
8 antique skeleton keys (already listed on Etsy!)
Old barnwood coat rack with old hooks!
A butter dish with built-in knife and holder.
(I could see this being a wonderful invention for family dinners
right up until someone looses the knife...)
A set of 2 old wood Kraft American cheese boxes!
A better photo of the locker bins!
A retro Decoware canister with one of those Hawaiian plants on it.
(can't remember the name...)
The cutest, smallest enamel ware coffee pot!
A homemade wood toolbox (that looks like it was never used!).
A rustic, old blue metal Smith Corona typewriter!
A lovely crystal cake stand with rose design!
A (supposed) service for 12 of Blue Willow dishes!
(Good eye Vickie!)
I haven't counted it yet but I think it might be a service for 12 or so, mix
and match some pieces from different brands/years of Blue Willow.
I'm going to research it a bit before I decide what to do with it.
For now, I will enjoy staring at it all!
Yeah, that's weird alright...

It was tons of fun buying, then unwrapping everything from the sale.
Like Christmas, but with stuff I actually want.
I still have linens I need to wash and iron, plus the
above mentioned items.
And I'm thinking a little surprise for next week to share the wealth...
heh
Hello Friends!
Welcome to this weeks
Cottage Style Party!
#57
How has your week been?
Everyone enjoying the wonderful summer weather?
Only a couple more weeks left of the official summer season.
I'm not sure if I'm excited about fall
or want to make the most of every summer day I can!
Let's see what you all have been up to this summer...
How pretty is this bouquet of roses?
All of these are from Debbi's cottage garden!
And there is more!
Stop by her blog All in my Cottage to see all the pretty bouquets
she picked from her gorgeous gardens!
I love the strong blue of these shutters on this stone house!
But in perusing Magali's post about how kitchen windows make the home,
I saw this:
and couldn't tear my eyes away!
If you love pretty kitchen windows (and who doesn't?)
stop by Magali's blog The Little White House on the Seaside
to see more lovely kitchen windows that inspire her kitchen remodel!
I need to end this with some one else's fab thrifty score!
This is Revi's best EVER thrift store score!
It is an old silver trophy made into a lamp!
I love it!
Click on over to her blog Revisionary Life to see
all the photos of this gorgeous lamp!
And wait till you see the price...!!!
Woot!
