I posted earlier about the neat folding chairs I found to go in my rv, and here are the rest of the purchases from that day. Most very useful ...... some not so much.
First, this beautiful knit cotton patch-work sweater, for this coming fall or cool summer nights. I just love the colors in it!
As I am doing what I can to give my new home a "cottage" feel to it, I found this ceiling light shade to relace one of the ones in the main room. ( shoo, I don't know what to call the room as it contains my dining area, a sitting area, and my paint studio. A great room?? a gathering room?? a living room is so boring of a 'name' for it.... ) But hopefully the shade will add some character and charm. It needs cleaned up .....badly .... the shade. My room is clean...
I also found this shelf for under my window in the bathroom. It is brand new! I hope I can figure out how to put it up. I know ..... if all else fails, read the instructions!
and here is wher I get a little frivilous. Yes, JoJo, I did go a little overboard and break my rule for myself :) Well, most of these are useable, some are just cute!
I had always wanted to collect teapots, and I did have an empty cupboard that needed something in it....
At this one yardsale a woman had brought her whole teapot collection. WOW, I was in teapot heaven!! Three of these were originally mine, but the rest I bought that day. Sixteen teapots! The price was right and I got a discount for buying so many.

and the last purchase was a popouri burner, just because it had pansies on it and it reminds me of my grandma...... :)
I am still looking for an old dresser and a tiny nightstand for in my bedroom.
What do you look for at yardsales?
Bye for now, I am going outside and create something....
Have a wonderful day!





I bought a group of teapots one time at a garage sale, on a whim like that!!!! I had them in my office on the top of my computer desk for some time and then got rid of them. It's fun to do things, out of the box, like that once in awhile. I didn't get near as many as you did, nor did I have the right cabinet. I think you'res are great.

ReplyDeleteSunny they are great. All different sizes and shapes. And that corner cabinet is just the right place for them.
I think you know what I look for. Some day I will open a store to sell all the pottery I have. hahaa
Every thing is so pretty. Just love those tea pots. Have a happy 4th!
ReplyDeleteGreat finds -- that sweater is pretty cute. Love the teapots, etc..
