I'm doing what I call my Diamonds In The Rough! features? It's where I show you my weekly buys from garage sales, tag sales, thrift stores, etc. Then I promise to show you what I make with them or what I use them for.
I've got to tell you, today, Friday, I only went to four garage sales. I got a lot of treasures and some really great deals...
Here you see:
A vintage picnic basket~To sell in my antique mall booth
Plastic file keeper~Great tax paper storage
Aluminum cake carrier and pitcher~To paint like MacKenzie-Childs style and sell like this...
Lots of easels~I'm always needing these in my mall booth
Small bottle brushes~I have wished that I had these several times to clean small things
Old tea strainer~I collect these and hang them on my kitchen Christmas tree
Two black round pieces of wood on little feet~Great used for lifts and levels or craft projects
Plastic measuring cups~Great for dipping out pet food and just leave in the pet food box for the next feeding
Plastic scoops~Great for using with flour, sugar, etc.
An old armless Kewpie doll and old doll head~To sell in antique mall booth
And the cream of the crop...
A vintage Hoosier Coffee Glass Canister~Paid 10¢, value $39*
Old Blue Ball Jar~Paid 50¢, value $5-$8*
Cute glass jar~Paid 10¢ and looks great with old buttons in them, etc.
GORGEOUS square cake pedistal~Paid $7.50, value $52*
*value based on what ones just like these sold for on eBay
Now let's see what I find Saturday!
