I went to my first Estate sale today. I felt really badly about walking through someone's house and picking through their things, but I'm sure I'll get used to it. I plan on going to more. I got a vintage gold clasp belt and a little leather coin purse for $1. There was a vintage bowl set that I liked, but I really don't have a place for anymore dishes. I have serving pieces stashed everywhere. I need to have a party of some sort to use some them. Anyone want to come over for a cookout or dinner party? There was also a dresser that I really liked for future baby O's room, but I didn't have a way to take it home with me. Oh yeah, I really wanted a vintage alarm clock that was there, but, unfortunately, someone went to ask how much it was when I happened upon it. Better luck next time.
I spent the entire day shopping, mainly for niece's and nephew's birthdays, but I came home with little, which is good. I did score some $2.99 Diesel sneakers for my nephew at Goodwill, along with a gold/topaz crystal serving plate (cough *see above* I know, I know, I have a problem). I picked up some Spyware night vision glasses for my nephew, who's party is Saturday. They were $18 at Target, but I found them at Ross for $10. Score! Check out the outfit for my niece Maddie, who is a budding fashionista. I swear, if they had it my size, I'd be wearing it too. That child is going to be very expensive when she is a teenager.
I'm heading back out to Dickson tomorrow. Have I told you how much I love working on the weekends? Sigh. One day I won't have to, but until then I'll make the best of it.
a.) I'm always open for hanging with the Os and eating your yummy food.
ReplyDeleteb.) Did you ever try the rompers at New York & Co.?
c.) Wanna have lunch on June 1st, 4th, or 5th? I think that's a Monday, Thursday, and Friday. Adam's on vacay so I could dine sans rugrats.
Holla back, yo.
