Today's best score was this gorgeous wicker rocking chair! The woman wanted $20...I got it for $15! It's big and it's sturdy. I'm debating whether to paint it white...what do you think?
Isn't it LOVELY?
Also got this basket full of goodies!
The basket came with a lid & was 5$.
(the stuff inside was separate)
Let me show you...
two new chicken roaster's for Mike's Beer Chicken...yum!
$1 each.
Cute little farm house $1
Pizza cutter $1
Old hat box $1
Pretty wine bottle box 25 cents
Little container with great texture on it, I'll likely paint it white, 50 cents.
Little basket, which I've filled with pebbles and a tea light, 50 cents.
Little heart shaped wreath with bird, free. It's ugly now, won't be later :) Nice old wooden box, with lid for $2.
It's dove tailed and already distressed,
put to use as a Utensil caddy for now.
It will likely end up being stenciled with the word "Soap" on it and used for powdered laundry soap.
A genuine copper cow bell - $5
Ding ding!
A pretty amethyst colored vase $1
These huge "garden hands" for $1
A new suitcase combination lock for $1
A book about Chillies for $1 for Mike (the Chef)
A brand new shirt for Mike for $1
a new silver frame for $1.50
An old looking frame (yes, it's supposed to look stained and battered) for $1.50
A vintage book for 50 cents,
it's really old and has some colorful illustrations in it.
Here's the basket with the lid. It's a nice size, great for storage.
This vintage suitcase for $2.
It was dirty, I gave it a wipe down with soap and water.
it has nice leather corners
It's in great shape.
This cute frame for 50 cents. I have another one like it.
That's my handsome son with me. :)
I stacked the big basket and the suitcase to create an end table.
The hat box is great for mail and junk we unload when we walk in the door! I love this little cabinet it's on. It's one of my creations using a $2 ceiling tile I got at a garage sale a few years ago, as well as parts of an old table from Quebec from the late 1800's that was broken.
Isn't that tile gorgeous? I love it!
I hope you've enjoyed seeing what we found at garage sales today!
Have a great weekend!

Thanks for following!

Oh Sandra, you scored some great things. I don't know whether you should paint the chair or not. It's a nice colour, but white always looks good too. I'd live with it as is for awhile. Love the cabinet you made, the tile is beautiful.
