Look at what I got today!
I can not tell you how bad I have been needing to go to a sale. Watching American Pickers each week, reading all the bloggers who live in warm climates who have sales year around. It has been killing me.
Well all I can say is I hit the jack pot today.
I can't wait to make something from all these finds.
What do you think of the dresser? The details are very art decoish.
The color is almost perfect as is but I think it needs sprucing up. I was thinking of a color instead of the white look but since I will probably sell it I don't know what color to go with.
If I keep it it will need to be a bit more white than yellow.
What color would you go with?
Robins egg blue
Aqua
Rusty pink
Green?
Look at these handles.
LOVE THEM!
The beautiful patina.
Drool
They alone are worth what I paid for the chest.
I won't tell you how much I paid because you will have a heart attack.
Go ahead and guess if you would like and tell me what you would pay for it cleaned up.
I got more bottles to alter. I just added some to my Etsy shop.
More books to use. I love books so much I hate tearing them up. But I'm getting over it when I see what I make with them.
Awesome sheet music that is already distressed to unbelievable coolness!
Do you see the edges?
I almost died right there in their driveway.
See those 2 knobs. They were marked $3.00. Nope, not paying that.
Asked what she could do.
She put all this, the bird print, tintype frame and both knobs together for
$1.00
yup a
$1.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These will be added to something soon.
I thought this silver bracelet was very interesting.
I really likes these small beads with the silver spacers. I don't like the larger sized beads at the base of the necklace so I think I'm going to remake it into a bracelet for myself.
I didn't take close ups of the cutter quilt or the dust ruffle but they are really nice. Already washed them and am ready to start sewing something with them.
So, I think I did real good for the first sale of the year. I got my fix and now I'm ready to get busy making stuff.
Do you want to know how much I spent total?
It's going to help you with your guesses on the dresser but lets just say I had enough left from $30.00 to get a mocha!
