Estate Sale

My usual days to go to Estate Sales are Thursday and Friday and lately it seems that I always have something else to do on those days and have not been able to go to as many as I would like. 

But last Friday there was one about a mile from my house so I manage to get to it before I had to go to work. 

This is the house:


It is for sale and according to Realtor.com they are asking a scant 1.1 million for it! Jeez, real estate prices are even crazier than last summer! 

I liked the front door. 


Although for such a big door is sure had a small, chintzy-looking handle and lock on it! 

The house is a beauty that's for sure. 



Blogger won't let me enlarge these pictures for some reason but that's the kitchen and family room. 

Everything for sale was high-end and expensive!

There was a bunch of glass and crystal pieces as you can see in the kitchen. 

I thought these plates were so pretty!




They were also $13 apiece! Pass. 

I liked this wine bottle holder. 





Priced at $40. I rarely drink wine but if I was rich and had a big house, I would definitely buy this. I think it would look pretty cool with a couple of wine bottles in it! 

This wall hanging was stunning and huge! 


Apparently, the piece was called "Circles" and it was selling for $300 per panel or 4 for $1,100. 



Not sure what a panel included but either way that's a lot of money! 


There was a closet full of pillows of different shapes and sizes



Doesn't that look like a Bed Bath and Beyond store?

This table had a bunch of jewelry making beads and tools on it. 



Don't need any of that but I really liked that lamp, though! I could not find a price on it but I'm sure it wasn't cheap! 

This giant ottoman was pretty cool. 


They were asking $200. 

There was several really nice pictures throughout. 




These were in the laundry room. 

I really liked these bookends. 


They were asking $30 for them which I thought was a decent price. But I passed. Don't really need them. 

This is the only thing I ended up buying. 


Yep, all that beautiful stuff and all I bought was a $4 plastic milk crate to keep our hose in! 

Last of the big spenders I am! 

Then the same day at work I received this text message. 


Sometimes when a resident leaves or passes away the families do not want all the stuff in their rooms and they will offer it to anyone who wants it. 

Kind of like a free Estate Sale. I went but did not take anything. 

That's it for me for now. I will leave you with the latest from Maxwell and Levi. 



See you the next time and thanks for stopping by!

  1. Wow - that was quite a house, and a very high end sale. Far too expensive for my wallet. :)
    Those are great pics of Maxwell and Levi!

  2. Everything was pretty expensive at this sale.
    The house is huge, I'd get lost in it. :)
    The big door is nice - looks like it could be a church door. I agree about it having a little dinky door handle.

  3. Maxwell & Levi are so cute! The house is gorgeous, but I think they overpriced some things. The ottoman is gorgeous, but I have seen new ones for this price or cheaper. I really like the bird pictures on the wall. And I love the door, it looks new. But you are right about the handle and lock. It needs something much larger and fancier.

  4. I agree that the door handle doesn't fit that door. It looks like a beautiful home. Crazy prices on that stuff though. Love those bird pictures and the ones that were in the laundry room.
    The crate purchase would be me. I like all the other stuff but my thrifty nature would lead me to a milk crate instead.
    Awesome pictures of the boys. They're getting so big.

  7. The grands are Getting SO big!! And More adorable, as ever!
    When Blogger does that to me, I simple switch over to a different server like Foxfire, or Chrome. go to my blog, hit Sign In, then go to post...and do what needs doing! Always works.

  9. Oh my, such fancy stuff. I would have bought the milk crate too. :) I've never been to an estate sale. Your cute grandsons are growing so fast!

  10. It seems they were asking too much $ for everything and they will have to do it again for less money, so why not price to sell?
    The milk crate was a good buy! The boys are so cute and growing up so quick.
