Yard Sale Haul!!

Good Afternoon my blogger friends!! Its beginning to look like fall here, but it is still very warm. I miss the colors of the Kentucky Falls! I went to several yard sales this weekend. I thought I would share my finds. I will have to pack some of my dishes away until we move but that's okay. I should not be buying stuff, but I can't stand just sitting around waiting. So I purge as I buy and pack away as well. So enjoy browsing my blog. And if your not a follower, I would be glad to have you as a follower!


This was my best find of the weekend. I love the roses on this plate. The pale pink one and the light creams and tans. It is a Royal Munich. I paid one dollar!




This is the markings on the back of the Rose Plate.






This plate was a dollar. I absolutely love the colors of the pears. The brown tones and the green.





I have several pieces already of this cornflower blue corning ware. I found these this weekend. All three pieces was 3.00. I can't wait to get to my new home, if I ever do to orgainize all my dishes.






This green purse was 5.00. I just love the color. It is a Nicole Lee. I researched it on the internet and its original price was about 57.00. I think I got a bargain!!






I bought this purse for 3.00. I love it! It has so much room for all my junk! LOL





This basket and four tassels and the earrings were 2.00 for all. The basket has a liner. It's in the laundry right now waiting to be laundered.






This is a close up of the earrings. They have rhinestones with little black pearls. The lady had 20.00 marked on them.





I ended up getting this baggie of buttons. The lady was asking 2.00 but she let me have them for a dollar.







Look at all these beautiful vintage books. They are filled with poetry and inspirational sayings. I think their covers are just so beautiful. A lady had a small box with all sorts of stuff, The box was marked free, so I took it. It had a pretty little salt shaker that I will use in crafts and some other odds and ends that I threw away. But these books were awesome!!

  3. You've been a busy shopper lately! I love both of the plates- they have gorgeous colors. I found some Cornflower Blue bakers recently and gave them to my son for his apt. I've never seen a piece like the one in the middle in your photo. Does it have a specific name or function?
    I am starting to run out of room for all my thrifty purchases. LOL I think I'm going to have to have a major yard/decorating sale in the spring!

  10. Susan, you find the BEST sales in your area... I do not go to many Garage Sales actually, but if I did I maybe could pick up some deals like you have found.
    They had the semi-annual GS's in our subdivision...this past week-end. (and I also heard they found a number of BOGUS $20.00 bills that were being passed around.)

    I especially love the PEAR plate and the Corning~ware dishes...they last FOREVER.
    I have some from the 70's to this day that I use.

  12. If I had been at that yard sale, I would have fought you over that rose plate. LOL. How pretty!

    I had a set of those cornflower blue dishes....just plastic and minature versions. Every year when I was a little girl, my grandmother would buy me a kid size version of a plate set. I got this set a few times. People ask me why she bought the same thing every year, but I never minded. I loved dishes even back then, but usually lost those small ones. She just replenished my supply the following year.
