A friend of mine recently started working part time for a couple of gals who own a company that comes in and does estate sales. So we thought what the hay, we would support her and go to one. Now I've never been to one before so I didn't know what to expect. But it was kind of fun. It was an indoor garage sale. Don't get me wrong, there was stuff for sale in the garage too, but there was stuff in the house air conditioned house too!
The 87 yr old woman living in the house went to a home. The house was well kept. It was dated in the 80's but clean. Some things were too high priced though. There was a set of bar stools priced at $ 115 a piece!! Seriously, Daniel Boone better have carved them himself at those prices!
I bought an old Mason jar (I also have an obsession with Mason jars right now, more later on that), a ladder for my Cat's Meows and a old spool all for $11. Then my friend had us write a few things that she could get at 1/2 price at 5:00 pm that if they didn't sell. Well I got them and I was more excited about those!!! I got a set of 5 cast iron bunnies for $5 and an old crock for $5!!! Now to go pick them up!!
I think we'll go again, I have the estate sale bug!!! I want to find some furniture to try out my chalk painting obsession (ok that's three obsessions now right??).
