Pretty Estate Sale Part 2

Here are some of the interesting things that I saw at this pretty estate sale. Just like the house everything was clean and in really good condition! 

I was there on the first day so no discounts. 

I'm not exactly sure what this is or what to call it. A candle, a lantern? 

It looks like you put fuel in the top and light the wick. Anyway, interesting for $4

This is a neat idea for a Christmas decoration. 

Clustered in the center of a table or at individual place settings. $10 for the set. 

I thought this canister set was very pretty. 

They were asking $30. 

There was a vintage MixMaster. 

Looked to be in pretty good shape for $50

I thought this was pretty cute. 

If my grandsons were younger, I would have bought it. $10

This was interesting. Growing Up with Dick and Jane. 

It had the history of the early reader books and a lot of pictures of the old books. See Spot. See Spot run. $5

This lamp was a gorgeous addition to the gorgeous sunroom! 

It was priced at $125. Also note the huge clematis outside the window. That was only half of it! 

This Christmas plate was cute!

Priced at $5

This little cabinet was very pretty, and also all the things on it! 

$150 

I thought this candle holder was interesting. 

They were asking $10 for it. 

I liked this Christmas picture. 

It says "All Hearts Come Home for Christmas". I have a sign that I hang in our guest room that says that for whenever Chris is here for Christmas. $15

These candle holders were so pretty. 

I've seen the exact same ones at another estate sale. $35 for the set. Santa approves! 

This box of rocks was mostly Petoskey stones. 

They were 3 for $1 (In case you didn't see that!)

Vintage Singer sewing machine. It was in good shape along with the cabinet. 

They were asking $100. 

This safe was interesting. 

The signs on it were the combination, a sign stating what was inside noting that there was no cash or jewelry in this safe. Also, at the bottom it says that it's a smart safe and to dial the combination before opening to avoid ink spray! 

All for $100! 

I liked this Christmas picture, too. 

There was no price on it that I could see. 

Believe it or not I did not buy anything at this sale. Don't get me wrong, I wanted everything I posted here plus a lot of other things that I didn't show! I just never buy anything that I can't find a practical use for! It was tough to resist, though! 

I would have liked to go back on the last day of the sale to see what was left and what was discounted but we had the boys for the weekend, and I just didn't get the chance! Oh well. Probably a good thing! 

That's all for now. 

Until the next time take care and thanks for reading! 

Pretty Estate Sale Part 1

My latest estate sale adventure was at this house:

 

It's a 5 bedroom, 3 bath, 3,215 sq ft home that recently sold for $665,000. 

Although nothing super special on the outside the inside was a different story! I have to show you this sale in 2 posts because they will be picture heavy. 

I took more pictures of the inside of the house than I normally do. Yes, it's a little outdated but I have never seen such a lovely, perfectly kept house. Everything was pristine! They had the floors covered with cardboard and plastic to keep it that way, too! 

Here's the kitchen. 

Beautiful! There were white tiles underneath the cardboard. 

This dining room was so pretty. I loved the blinds on the windows, and they were throughout the house! 

The carpet was white with blue flowers. 

This was the living room. 

It's bigger than the picture makes it look. I had to crop a person standing by the table out! 

This was the den. 

The built-in shelves were beautiful!

The carpet throughout the rest of the house was white. 

This was one of the bedrooms. 

I loved the way the chenille bedspread was draped over the bed! 

Also, the estate sale company did a beautiful job with the presentation!

This closet shelf had Christmas decorations on display.  

This is the linen closet. 

So neat and organized! 

This was the only bathroom that was open. 

Spotless! I love a sunken tub!

This was the closet in the master bedroom. 

Beautiful clothes but not my size. 

This bedroom was nice and had all of the sheets, bedspreads and blankets. 

This closet had more home decorations on display. 

And this is where they had the tablecloths and runners!

This was the master bedroom. 

Very large and very pretty!

The staircase was so nice!

I like the way it curved. 

This was the family room. 

Really big with huge windows! 

This was the prettiest sunroom. 

The rug that was covered was very nice, and not for sale! 

This was a room in the basement. 

Also in the basement was this pantry. 

Storage shelves with a bunch of different holiday decorations. 

There was workroom that had jars and containers of nuts and bolts and nails, etc...

Someone was very organized!

Back upstairs, this was the deck view outside one of the windows. 

Even the garage was spotless and perfect!

I could have walked around looking at this house for hours. I actually was looking for flaws like a scratch on the wall or a dent on the floor, but nothing! It was that pristine! 

There was also a lot of nice and interesting things for sale which I will show you in the next post!

Until then take care and thanks for reading! 

Estate Sale..Cigar Anyone?

 My latest estate sale adventure was at this house:

It's a 3,778 sq ft house that recently sold for $691,000! Real estate remains ridiculous! 

I didn't really take pictures of inside the house but there was some interesting things I thought I would show you. 

This was a wine cork holder. 

I thought it was pretty neat and if you drink a lot of wine than it's a great place to keep the corks. I don't. I think I have maybe 5 wine corks in my possession! It was marked $14 and it was the first day so there was no discount. 

This serving tray was so pretty

It was $30. 

I liked these bird wall hangings. 

They were $12 each. I really liked them. I should have gone back the next day to see if they were still there because they probably would have been discounted but I didn't. Regrets, I've had a few! 

There were several boxes of Madame Alexander dolls. 

They were $12 each. That's less than they probably paid for them when they were bought. 

This picture tree was pretty. 

I can't imagine trying to fit little pictures in it though. It was $20

In the basement there were tons of empty cigar boxes

This is just a couple of the areas. 

There must have been 200 of them scattered throughout the basement. There was no price on them. Someone was a cigar aficionado! 

And here's more proof

Huge jar filled with cigar bands! It was priced $30. I don't know. Are they collector's items or something? 

There were a few pretty nativity sets. 

I liked this one, but I already have a nice nativity set from Home Interiors.

$20.  

$12

This was called a delft blue nativity set. 

It was $30

This wolf picture was pretty cool. 

$25

Lastly, I don't know what this is. 

I wonder if it has anything to do with cigars? $255

This is the only thing I bought at this sale. 

We have an old plastic tool box that has screws and nuts and bolts and nails and other misc. stuff in it. I figured we could use this to organize it a little better. 

Total spent: $1

In other news: The boys had their last day of school on Wednesday, 

Next year 3rd and 4th grade! I can't believe how big they are getting!

That is all for now! 

Until the next time take care and thanks for stopping by!
