Hello,
The estate sales seem to be slowing down. I went to one estate sale last weekend and it was a bust. I only bought a bottle of pine sol and a bottle of Windex. They were only two sales that seem good this weekend and I went to both. The first sale was advertised on estatesales website and I needed some of the items they had. Was the fifth person to get to sale and waited about an hour to go in. I bought a 16 ft ladder, an extension cord with it's reel, garden tools, books (I am a book hoarder) and the following thread holder.
The second sale was part 3 of a sale and it was given by my favorite estate sale company. No offer was going to be denied. I found me some salt and pepper shakers from Japan.
Some vintage pastels for artists (not an artist, but buy them every time i see them)
Vintage nut cups.
A wine box. Saw one on Ebay for $25, cost me less than a $1. They had more so might go back.
I got a small box to put my finds and they said all that fits in box for $3, They didn't have to tell me twice. I added some bungy cords, paint brushes, vintage pencils (can't leave behind either), some nails, above items and a measuring stick. Thinking of going tomorrow. I saw a vintage dresser that i been wanting and now regret not offering anything for it. It was $30 and what turned me off is that it needed work. Yes, i know all vintage furniture needs a little TLC, but i have never re-purposed furniture, and it scared me off. I need to start somehow, so If i find tomorrow i will buy it. Kicking myself for not doing today.
