Its friday! That means yard sale day! I only hit a few. First we went to this weird estate sale. Estate sales are so odd down here! They have companies that come in, and they price everything and set up a cash register and take sales tax. You sign up before the sale and they let like five people in at a time, taking the names off the list. I don't like it one bit. I did manage to pick up some stuff, though.
I got all these older patterns for a dollar. Unfortunetly, they arent my size, but if I ever get good enough at sewing I should be able to size them down.
I also got this awesome neckless, and those not so awesome earings that came with it. I should be able to sell the earings in my little booth for a dollar or two, though, so its a good deal. I love the neckless, though.
On my way out, I picked up this adorable little cut glass dish. I am a cut glass addict, but I own zero peices. Until I get a nice, safe place to display them, they go into the booth. Its a shame, too, because this peice is beautiful.
Then we went to this apartment moving sale. The place was very nice, very clean, but they had cats. Yours truely is allergic to cats. Very allergic. However, I did manage to pick up this nice tin and brand new journal for the booth.
Lastly, we hit this sale that opened at ten. Odd time for a sale to start! And, suprisingly, it was our neighbors mothers apartment. It was nice to talk to him again. It was all high quality stuff, but I couldn't afford any of it so I didnt get anything there.
Speaking of this booth, I guess I should explain it. Its a business venture of sorts. I am renting a shelf space at a local antiqueish shop, and I get that July 1st. They handle all the selling, I just have to price and stock. Its a good deal. I want to try stationary, so I put in an order at Lang Company. I highly reccoment their stuff if you see any in any stores. Its adorable, affordable, and very high quality. This is just a sampling of the goodies I am going to try to sell.
I was going to show you all the bracelet I am crocheting, but my computer is taking about 20 minutes to upload each photo, so your going to have to wait until tomorrow for that. ^_^
