Third and Best Estate Sale

Third times a charm, so they say and, in my case, this third estate sale was my charm!

The advertisement for this sale says bring your crafty self and they were not kidding!

First, here's where it was:

I took this picture off the internet because I didn't take any outside. It's 1,800 square ft condo and recently sold for $239,000! It's a nice condo complex but jeez! 

Anyway, it was loaded with stuff and there were some very nice things. 

I thought this daisy dish set was so cute!

Each piece was marked $2

This vintage China was gorgeous! 

It was $100 for the set but everything was 25% off. 

This was very pretty too. It's a little pot and cup set with a plate. 

They were asking $20

This is the kitchen. 

Very small and definitely in need of paint! 

All the beauty products were on a shelf in the bathtub! 

I rarely buy any of that kind of stuff. 

This is the linen closet. 

Very neat and organized. 

In the bedroom there was every kind of wig and hairpiece you could want!

Plus, and adhesive bra! 

A very pretty thimble collection.

They were $5 each. 

This was one of the bedrooms. 

I had to crop the picture to get the person standing there out of it but it was nice and bright with big windows. It must have been a sewing room because it was filled with sewing stuff! 

This book told how to make vintage bags. 

It was $3

Then I got to the basement and oh my gosh, when they said bring your crafty, they meant it!

The basement was loaded with all sorts of craft stuff! 

This room was all ribbons, threads and embroidery stuff!

This closet was filled with large pieces and bolts of fabric! 

Stamps of every kind! 

There was a Cricut machine with all the accessories!

It was marked $100 but with the discount was $75

All sorts of stuff for scrapbooking!

I never got into scrapbooking thank goodness! 

More acrylic paints than I've ever seen in a craft store!

I could go on and on about all the crafting things there were but I think you get the picture! 

Here's what I bought at this sale:

Two new packages of interfacing, a loop turner, bias tape maker, one of those games like they have on the table at Cracker Barrel, two large pieces of pretty fabric, a cardinal yard decoration....

A window thermometer and this complete 53-piece set of ratcheting screwdrivers for Rich. 

Total spent: $35. I think this is the record for the most I've spent at an estate sale! 

I could have dug through this sale for hours, but I had to go to work. I should have gone back the next day but I figured I spent enough! 

In other news:

They had a Rootin' Tootin' lunch at work and these were the table centerpieces.

They were so cute!

That's all for now.

See you next time and thanks for stopping by!
