I bought an old wood table and chest, plus a well loved teddy bear, a doll, an old coffee can and a hat. I also bough a very old wood dolly that is already somewhere in the garage!
Then, when we got home, we found out that our friend and fellow dealer Karen was having a huge sale... Karen lives only a few minutes from us in a gorgeous farmhouse!! The horses wanted their barn back and she was practically giving things away... And prices kept getting lower as the weekend progressed!!! Every husband's nightmare (I know mine was less than thrilled...)!!!
Here is my pile (which grew a little more after I snapped this picture...)! Behind it are a set of 5 Eastlake chairs that I was thrilled to get for a song!! Oh and I also bought those owl fireplace thingies in the second picture above...
Some of the things I found at her sale (plus a couple of items I found at the Vintage Gatherings sale in BG).
You would hate me if I told you how much I paid for these iron headboards...
Those were great finds you found. The sale you went to at Beth's is not far from my house. They used to have a primitive sale every year and now they just do this with all their close friends. I agree lots of meals and some pampering time is in order.
ReplyDeleteIsabel , I love that chair! Is it a Keeper or is it for sale? If its for sale , Let me know before you give it a redo , ok? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThese are some awesome finds!! I LOVE those iron headboards!! So lucky!! Can't wait to see what you do with all of it.

Hi Isabel! I just got back from vacation in Oregon. I made it to the Barn House for their wonderful event with Willow nest. Wasn't it just magical!!1 I found a few goodies that I brought home for myself. I also found the Vintage Gatherings event on the way out. Unfortunately I missed this one that you've written about, but I did find a few goodies at some local garage sales. We (I) had a great time. Thanks for telling me about Barn House. I might have missed it otherwise!!

Hey there Isabel,
ReplyDeleteWhat a treat!! OMG, I wish I had been with you..we would have fought over the OWL andirons!! LOL That was the first thing I saw in that picture. :0)
The pictures are just wonderful..I was wondering if you would allow me to save a few to print and use in my decoupage..I'm decoupaging everything in sight in my new home..LOL I love junk and these days when I see a piece of furniture that's all beat up the first thing I think is, "I can decoupage that!!" Please drop by my blog and let me know if you don't mind...
The pictures of the old barn red cabin with tin roof is one that I love and the one that shows all of the furniture outside.
Have a great day,
Stephanie
Girl, I am SO jealous! I want to live (okay, maybe just visit with a big trailer) there!

What a fabulous garage sale, in such a lovely setting. I really like that chair that you found - make sure to show us after you've recovered it, Isabel.
ReplyDeleteI am definitely coming junking with the two of you one of these weekends!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous Friday my friend,

Isabel, I am so jealous!
ReplyDeleteWhat great sales, and you found some fantastic items.
I love the chair. Can't wait to see it recovered.
I've found little to nothing around here lately. A few fabrics, but that's about it.
Have fun with all you new treasures!
Kimberly :)
I wish I could see your husband's face when you get home with all your goodies...lol...
ReplyDeleteLove that chair!!!
You make me smile :)
I so would love to shop with you. You find the most wonderful things.
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh! I read your post title to hubby and showed him the stuff you brought home and told him how LUCKY he was that I only brought small things home, that this addiction I have could be much, much worse! He calls these treasures "firewood"... imagine that!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your lovely finds, I'm totally jealous.

What a SCORE. Lucky you.
ReplyDeleteI just used old shutters as outdoor shower doors. I painted them red to match the outside colors I have. i will post about it on Outdoor Wed.
Oh I wish I would have been there. We don't have things like that around here.
I'm glad you had fun even if hubby didn't : )
Have a great weekend
Love Claudie
