Sneak peek of the estate sale haul with just the things I brought to my house. Erin took a lot home with her. She'll get a picture as soon as she can. But there's a good bit more than what I have here.

I got there 2 hours before it started and enjoyed the Estate Sale Social Club while waiting. Shopped for another 2 hours. Always looking for the best we can bring to you.

Wednesday was another slow day for us. Only two things found new homes, but I'm sure they'll be happy. And we appreciate each and every purchase!

The entwined swan planter and a Hummel figurine of two kids that I never got a picture of.

It's Thursday, time to start planning your weekend. What are your plans?

We need to make room in the booth! Who needs a small, Colonial style table? It's 45" diameter with two 10" leaves. $125.00. In booth F26 at Angels Antiques & Flea Mall

What a difference a day makes! Some days we're hot, some we're not. Yesterday wasn't good for our booth. One $4 wall pocket found a new home. And that's it. Frankly, I'm surprised anything was purchased. The mall was fairly busy, but when I went there around 4:00, we were at zero dollars. So, shout out to Asian wall pocket buyer! Thank you!

Spring snow. Shedding snowball bushes, that is. We had a frost that really bit the top of the flowers and hampered the blooms. Then some hard winds. I guess if the bushes didn't get to show out as much as usual, we can appreciate the petals on the ground.

Two days, 2 states, 4 different cities/towns (Not as dramatic as it sounds), 10, TEN, DIFFERENT thrift stores, and this is all I have to show for it. It's not bad stuff by any means. It's just a lot of effort for little reward. Y'all, we work harrrrrddddd to find the best we can for ya!

So happy for these items to go to their new homes yesterday.

*Not pictured: Large mirror

*Two hooked rugs. One was a dog (Correction. It was a flower pattern.) pattern, the other a black, folk art floral
*The 1950s-60s oil painted couple
*The furniture pediment that was just added. Gotta love the circle of life on these things. I bought it, put it in the booth, and it found its new home all in less than a week.
*Newly added brass reticulated tray
*Floral creamer
*Floral print
*French enamel tub and stand. I hope they plan to plant this!

There was also a $3.00 "cromartie" that doesn't seem to be ours. Nope, I have no idea what a cromartie would be. Fingers on the wrong keys?

I'm usually not one to publicly call out thrift store prices, but in this case..... What the heck ReStore?!

Thrift stores are like the rest of us. They can price anything as they see fit and we can buy it or not. Sure, we want these things to be next to nothing, but how they price is none of my business and besides, that's a whole 'nuther discussion that we all could gripe and grumble about or defend from now til Jesus comes back or they change, whichever comes first.

I've, and everybody else, I'm sure, been looking at this gorgeous vase for weeks. The first time I saw it, I thought I'd found something. Then I saw it. No, I *felt* it. The vase didn't feel solid when I picked it up. I knew immediately it was cracked. And boy hidey, is it ever! It feels like a good thump with your finger would shatter it. And yet, they still hope someone will pay $20? Maybe it's valuable, if in good condition. I really don't know, but even if it is, is it worth $20 in such badly cracked condition?

Chinoiserie values really aren't my wheelhouse, I just know pretty when I see it.

We got to shop another curbside boutique Saturday. Erin had picked up our son, her brother, at his house and they were coming to our house and going the "back way" of our neighborhood and spotted a pile. WITH a baker's rack! We can always use baker's racks in the booths.

She and Philip loaded it onto the truck, she picked up a couple of things, then they came on over here. She and I went back and gathered the rest. Saving these beauties from the landfill

There was also a quite rusty cast iron skillet that we haven't investigated. I believe it's still in the back of her truck.

These things found their new homes on Saturday. The mall was, of course, closed yesterday, Easter, so I decided to share Saturday's things today. It was a decent day. Not the best for a Saturday, but not the worst.

I don't have pictures of everything. There was a vintage, black slinky, jumpsuit, and a vintage Alaska pillow cover that I don't believe I have pictures of anywhere.
