Every year, my church has a huge garage sale, where all proceeds - from donations made by attendees - go to help local homeless outreach programs.
It's always a fabulous time. There are many things to search for, dig through, and discover as buried treasure - feeling slightly like a pig looking for truffles. It's a sure fun time. Nothing like a big old garage sale to get my vintage juices flowing.
I found a few things, most going to my vintage shop. And the Pyrex? Well, that's one for me to keep (I didn't have this one. Hooray!)
Here's what I got:
- a vintage '80s wool skirt
- a vintage '80s wool sweater
- a vintage '80s wallet
- a vintage '50s silver mesh purse
- a vintage '60s pair of faux fur snow boots
- a vintage '70s bandana
- a vintage '70s Autumn Harvest 403 Pyrex Bowl (for me)
- a vintage 80s adorable (Bernese?) dog mug
Plus a candle and dish towel. Ten items for $10. Can't beat that.
I volunteered two years ago for this event, and plan on doing it next year (this year didn't line up right with my schedule.) It's so fun to shop at these events and even more fun to help set up.
Until the next vintage haul, my vintage friends, have a great day. ♥
