My neighbor Walli called this morning and asked if I’d like to go to a few estate sales. So off we went.


Above are a few of the scores for this day. I also got two table water fountains for $5 each. A primitive little wooden birdhouse for outside for 50 cents. And the large green bowl below. I just couldn’t pass this beauty up for $10.


You really wonder about the people who owned these items. Whether they’ve recently died. Whether the item in question was a cherished belonging. What they’d think if they could see their life’s possessions lined up on tables with hanging tags. Part of life’s circle.


The paintings below I found at my favorite consignment shop, Rega Of Paris, a few weeks ago. I hung them in my garden room. I love white, blue and yellow together. These two are very similar, so I wonder if they’re by the same artist?

  6. Hi Brenda.

    I’m going to move to where you live. You got some great finds at the estate sale. I can’t resist anything blue and white or that green majolica looking china. Fun!


    Thanks for stopping by and leaving a sweet comment.
