3 Estate Sales
/
Last month I visited 3 Estate Sales in the same day! Here’s a peek at what I saw and what came home to the Chalet!
You shouldn’t be surprised this book the 1985 book World’s Fair by E.L. Doctorow was the motivation for me to venture out that day. I saw it in a bookshelf image from the Estate Sale Company.
Here’s the first house.
The first house had so many lovely pieces: plates, china, art, the lamp with the lovely marbleized shade. The book I went for was still there and I found a Pringle of Scotland wool sweater.
The second house was just down the street.
The second house didn’t have many items but the cedar closet was filled with Christmas decor. Any ornament in this box was a dollar. Score! And of course I also found books!
The third house was a tent sale.
I didn’t find anything at this house but, I did stop to admire these stunning antique platters.
Here are my finds totaling $20.00. The Pringle of Scotland sweater, four wooden christmas ornaments, a learning book about Cities with overlay sheets inside showing the city today and 100 or more years ago, a lovely pictorial book about Switzerland, Art Through the Ages a college text book and of the book that started my journey World’s Fair.
Going off on my own and find a few treasures made for a delightful day. I’m not sure if I’ll be doing this again anytime soon - but Maybe!?! Til next time be well - wishing you a very Happy 4th of July! See you over on the Gram!
