Yard Sale Finds!

Good Afternoon my friends!! Have I had fun today. It was cool and misting rain, but that did not stop me from going to yard sales. I lucked out today and there was a community yard sale not far from my home. I love community yard sales because I can get my fix and go home!
I cleaned house when I came home. So now I am tired.
Hope everyone has a wonderful after noon!!







This little country Christmas bear was one dollar. It will look cute in a Christmas vignette.







I love this picture of horses. I am from horse country originally the Bluegrass State,Ky. I will of course paint the frame Oil Rubbed Bronze because it looks so good up against our egg shell white walls.





This gold table with glass was 5.00. Of course it will not stay gold. I plan to do a make over and use my beloved Oil Rubbed Bronze spray paint.








This gold bag and the red bag below are Estee Lauder bags. The lady had both of these bags and sold them to me for 2.00. They have never been used.








On the inside of the gold one. There was a cute little makeup bag and mirror.
.







I do not know where I will display this pillow. But I think it is so cute with the doll and the bear pattern. I paid a dollar for it.






I found this Christmas pillow and the comforter below for 5.00. I have a table cloth that has the same embroidery as this pillow. During the holidays, I will display this pillow in the gold chair next to my dining room table.






If it white and has lace on it....its mine!





A close photo shot of the lace on this comforter.



This is a huge bird cage that was used in a wedding. I will most certainly do a makeover. I am not sure what color to spray paint it, please make suggestions. I want it to look more traditional vs shabby chic.








This floral arrangement was 1.00. I will use it in a vignette after the holidays.







I don't know if anyone knows this in blogland. But I collect piggy banks. I found this one today for 50 cents. Is it not a cutie?






Little bear in a little girls shoe! This will be used in a vignette somewhere. 1.50

Small project, Yard Sale Haul, and Family dollar finds.

Good Afternoon, my friends! I hope everyone is having a wonderful Saturday. I got up early this morning and went to the yard sales! I found a lot of stuff, nothing special!
I thought I would share my yard sale finds, a small project and dollar tree and Family dollar finds!! I had not posted anything new all week. So I thought I needed to share something with my friends!!
My creative juices have quit flowing. I have tried and tried to get in the mood to sew or craft and everything I touch something goes wrong and I get frustrated!
I think my body is tired and telling me take a break for awhile. Because the last thing I tried to sew , I started crying because I messed it up so badly.
It has been a touch few weeks for me physically and emotionally. But I will get through all this and soon feel like my old self again!!
I hope everyone enjoys my show and tell!





Small project!

Good Morning bloggers!

I hope everyone is doing well. I have not been myself lately. I have been struggling with my health. When I struggle with my breathing and other health problems I get depressed. I don't know why. But I lose interest in doing anything.
I am finally feeling like myself again!! So thought I would do a new post! Hope you enjoy!
