Mt Airy flea market

Share

Here are today’s treasures.   A platter marked Czechoslovakia.  And a long bowl that I am going to put on my dresser to hold my pretty hair things (I think).  Total spent?  $13.  I have a weakness for pretty china!

Platter:  It almost has a hand painted quality.  The flowers look more like water [...]

Purple mop…

The pink vacuum was a present from Auntie H for Mila’s last bday.  The purple mop Mila found in a pile of free stuff at a garage sale.  Darling was so funny.  He was like “are we going to get that?  why?”  LOL!

New Treasure from last weekend’s garage sales

Share

I know it is a little bit weird.  That is why we liked it (Darling came with garage sale-ing last Sat, so fun!).  It is an aluminum table base for $10.  We have been looking for a large outside table for the back yard.  I think it is 60′s?  It is kind of Seussical [...]

This weekend’s treasures

Mila already has this Gap coat in a 2T.  I bought it used from ebay (they go for close to $20!)  I LOVE this coat.  I love the colors.  I LOVE a Fair Isle pattern!  And it was $5 at the thrift shop in Mt Airy for this 4T so I got it. The [...]

This weekend’s garage sales

I went down to the Rummage Sale at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church on Rt 28 in North Potomac.  They advertised this one as a yard sale so it was difficult to figure out what time it started.  (7am).  I got there at 8am…it was really bad.  There were a few cute clothes [...]

Garage sale last Friday

Share

Total spent? $4  I am going to try and spray paint those gaudy candle holders white and see what I think.  They cost me 50 cents for the pair so I won’t be too upset if it doesn’t work out.  The vintage purses are for Mila’s dress up box.  The vintage child’s dress is [...]

Yes, it is that time of year again…

Saturday was St Mark Presbyterian Church 10701 Old Goergetown Rd.  It was bad.  I had been to this one once before (years ago) and it was bad then as well.  I came away with a 50 cent broken pitcher.  It is a fairly small area and the [...]

Rummage Sales etc

Share

Last week was St Peters Episcopal rummage sale in Poolesville.  Starts on a Thurs night which was kind of nice (April 7, 8 and 9).  Mila and I were waiting in line to get in at 5pm.  People actually ran when the tape was lifted.  It was a bit weird.  It was a fairly quick [...]

Today’s garage sales and baby bazaar

Share

Darling got an antique fertilizer/spreader.  We needed this and this one is in nice vintage shape.  Metal seems so much nicer than the new plastic ones anyhow.  $5

I got an antique laundry basket.  It belonged to the seller’s mother, named Elenore.  She died last December at the age of 94.  [...]

LOVE the Fisher Price record player from 1971.  It has all the records too.  $5!!!!!

**I think I am going to have Darling spray paint this picnic basket either pink or aqua (I already have this same basket in a larger [...]
