Emily and I spent Saturday garage and estate sale hopping. We found some great deals and had so much fun. We arrived at the first sale at 5:00 am and hit about 5 garage sales; then, after stopping at home to unload our treasures, we went to at an estate auction where we spent the rest of the day.
Emily (you can read her take on the day here) and her garage sale "finds": three pairs of shoes, blue sandals for Smith, Banana Republic jeans, a blue cardigan, two blue trays, a Radio Flyer push wagon, a green vineyard ladder, three frames, a mirror, a small planter, two topiaries, a shelf, and a mirrored tray.
This lemonade stand at one sale was just precious.
I spent a total of $130, and these are my all of my "treasures":
four of these antique dining chairs
2 full-sized bedspreads
a pink pillow for AP's new "big sister" room
a camera for my favorite photographer
a Melissa & Doug clock puzzle
an apron and oven mitts for AP
one of my very favorite Disney movies
a small painting
a framed print
CD's to put me in a good mood on the way to work
a box full of craft, art, and sewing books and magazines
a cookbook
a Shel Silverstein book
a birthday cake book
three books: Wild at Heart, The Millionaire Mind, and You: The Owner's Manual
We got all of this before 7:00 am! There's so much more to tell about our experience at the estate sale, but I'll save that for another post.
Right now, we're planning our next garage sale shopping spree!

WHEN did you get that cookbook? Did I totally miss something? Isn't that the cookbook Darby has posted about???
