Yard Sales



I'm so excited for the warmer weather and for the great time of searching the yard sales for great treasures. I woke up this morning at a leasurely 8:30am, and realized I was late. So, I jumped out of bed, threw on some clothes, and a hat, and I was off. Luckily today's great find was just in my own neighborhood.

The first place I went I admired a picture, and she said just to take it....free!!! Score for me. Even if I don't like the picture, the frame is pretty and can be repainted.

The next place was across the street. I mostly just went over there to say hello and noticed in the back of her garage was a headboard. I've been looking for one for quite a while. We've never had one and because of cost have put it off. Not only is it a headboard but a footboard as well. All for the right price of $40. Some may be impressed, but I know my yard sale buddy guru could have got it for $20. Oh well, I have a new bed. Awesome!

  1. Pretty! That is awesome! I need to start scrounging. We are in need of a new coffee table. Frames can always be reused. Better to get them used & cheap. :)

  2. Wow! Very pretty! I am always impressed by yard salers. I never find anything good so I don't go very often.
