A Few Little Garage Sale Finds . . .

Just wanted to share a few more garage sale finds with you for those who are interested . . .

Here are some of the books I have bought.  I got all 4 of these for $1 and since then have bought 5 more Dr. Suess books at garage sales in absolute pristine condition.  I was so excited because Russell really wants to have them, but I didn't want to go spend a wad of money on a bunch of brand new books.  Besides, call me crazy but I kinda like that I bought these from a cute little family and I met the kids who loved and read these books. The books have a history, and I like that.

My mother has instilled in me a love for beautiful books.  I found this Cinderella book "like-new" and the illustrations are simply gorgeous.  When the girls are older I'll let them look at it . . . maybe . . .


This is a cute little tea set I bought for $1.  The girls love to play with tea sets and do a really good job with this one, even though it's a little fragile.


This pretty ceramic vase now resides in my mother's kitchen window box.  It goes perfectly with her new green and white kitchen and I was so happy to find it!
