Yard Sale Treasures


Do you remember these stools?  I do - I remember sitting on a stool just like this and talking on the phone - I could just pull the foot rest down whenever I wanted, relax and chat with my friends!  I found this great old stool on Saturday at a yard sale - the past two Saturday's its been rainy here - but by the looks of the people that were out and about - it didn't matter..


The lady told me that lard came in these containers.  Her mother in law had owned them - she had a piece of masking tape on each one - one was for dates, another for raisins - that tape has been there a long time - no amount of Goo Gone will take it off.  These are so cute - the colors are so bright, there's no rust inside either.


These other goodies are resting on the stool - a 403 Pyrex bowl - it's an old one - it doesn't even say 403 - that's going to my daughter - she only needs the red bowl for the complete primary set.  I also got a miniature pie plate and two Termocrisa bowls - they're a great size for a small bowl of cereal.  I paid $7 for those items, including the stool - the stool alone was worth way more than that!

My next sale was a huge outdoor church fundraiser - it didn't start on time because of the rain - it was well worth it for me - I got some cute things - I paid $10 for the box of goodies.


A nice pair of Forest Fancies bowls


I'm adding to my Delphite collection -  I found 2 larger plates and one side plate - they were hidden away in a box.


This little fridgie is a bit weathered but the price was surely right.

This is an Anchor Hocking gravy boat - I guess it isn't old, but it took my eye.  I found a nice Pyrex measuring cup - the one I use all the time is Fire King - it'll be good to have extra.   I also found some custard cups - two different sizes - I'm sharing with my daughter.

One man stopped me and said I had a good jar - I don't know if that is true or not, I bought them because I love old jars - for decoration or putting things in.  One has a green tinge to it - it's a Crown jar, the other is Canadian Jewel - the old glass lids make them really unique.


I love this seafood bowl!!


You can't tell by looking at this - but this little Thermos is about 5 inches tall and it's an Avon bottle - how cute is that???  It's one of my favorite purchases from the day!
