Yard Sale Finds....

I lucked out the other day on my way to run an errand. I had no idea about this HUGE sale going on right outside my town. It was one of those things where you really don't have the time or shouldn't really stop....but, you just have to! So I turned the car around and went back and I am so glad I did! There were treasures, unfortunately I only had $5.00 with me.


This hooked chair pad was only .50 cents

I picked up 4 of these "like new" fall garlands, with the original tags still on them at $29.99 each.
I got them for $1.00 each! There were more ;( but I only had $5.00 and no time to go back to an ATM for more money. Turns out it was perfect because I put 3 of them on my dining room window ledge and one on my china cabinet.
Love it!


But what I was most excited about was this wire basket/cart. I am assuming it is an old laundry basket, at least that is what I will be using it for. I think I am going to spray paint it black. Right now it is just rusty dirty looking. But what do you expect for .25 cents!

  1. What!? .25 cents for the laundry cart? Amazing deal. And I love it. All your finds were great, but the cart just blew me away. Aren't you glad you stopped? You should share pictures when you are done transforming it. I ♥ yard sales! Have a great weekend.
