As promised, here are a few of the things that I bought on my trip.
Believe me Sista and I worked really hard to find good stuff.....the only problem is that we both want the same things, so we've learned to compromise or in some cases be the one that gets to it first!
She spotted this beauty and decided that it would be perfect for my booth.....I grabbed it fast before she changed her mind...(gasp!)
I lucked upon this vintage jar carrier with the mason jars at the flea market. Home with me baby!
Sista found these fabulous screens in the back of a shop. The shop owner was thinking about throwing them out! No, no, I'll take them for $5.00!! They are already gone from my booth.
Another great find is this metal bottle carrier. I'm keeping this one for myself. Right now it's parked on my kitchen table.
Be sure and stick around this week. I've got more pictures of my sister's home to show you.
Now get out there this week and create, make, draw, paint, photograph, write, cook, repurpose and find something wonderful and share it with us.

This fabulous shabby prom dress took my breath away. I had to have it. Even though it was dirty and dingy and was gray with built up dust and dirt. A good soak and fluffing, she is now purdy as can be.....
I think she makes a nice prop for my booth.I lucked upon this vintage jar carrier with the mason jars at the flea market. Home with me baby!

Oh Sissie some great finds!!! Some of my friends are taking me out on an antiquing thrift store outing in a few weeks for my birthday and I sure hope I find some goodies like you! Would love to find a vintage dress like that!
I get to spend a little time with my 2 sisters this next weekend as
we are meeting to go to a bridal shower together. Not a weekend just a few hours but so looking forward to some sis time!

Great finds! Funny how one persons garbage can be another person's treasure! Love that bottle carrier. Looking forward to seeing more of your sisters house:)
Sissie, you found some wonderful things when shopping with your Sister. That chandelier is top notch! I love the metal bottle container. In fact, I think it is my favorite of your finds!
Surprised the chandy wasn't snatched up yet! Love your new bottle carrier, need to find myself some of the mason jar flower frogs-too fun:@)
I can't believe all the great things you found, Sissie! So glad you saw past the dirt and grunge on that dress. It is stunning now!
Wow, I love it all! That dress is especially impressive!
You found some great stuff. I am not surprised that the doors sold so quickly.
Oh...fun, fun, fun stuff!
Sounds like you and your sister had way too much fun, Sissie! My favorite is the bottle carrier, I would have a hard time parting with that, too:)
Oh awesome finds! I can certainly see why you kept the carrier. Looks awesome on your table with the greenery in it.
Beautiful finds! Your cheerful presence here is so welcoming! Blessings to you sweet lady!
Love the bottle holders. I would have grabbed those jars too! Makes me shudder to think of someone throwing those away!
You did good!
What great, great finds! You know that chandy? My hubby's family used to own a lumber yard and it sold everything from screws to light fixtures to furniture.
This chandy was sold in the late 70's and originally sold for $59...(quite a lot at that time) My friend bought two of them and used them as swag lights by her kitchen sink. Guess what? She still has them (I called her to see what she paid-and I THINK that was the company cost on them..rather than retail...because she was an employee there and could buy at cost). All your other finds are great, too! xo Diana
LOVE your finds! The dress is to die for and the rest is just as fantastic!!! :D
Hugs,
Great finds Sissie! That sweet little chandy is my favorite!!
Of course I love everything you do!! That chandelier and prom dress...OHHHHH!

Great stuff! Love that bottle carrier on your table with the pretty plants. Imagine something that was gonna be thrown out was snatched up right away in your own booth. It's true what they say about another man's trash ...
