The estate sale season is officially underway and Chris and I hit one decent 50% half sale Saturday morning.
One of my cherished purchases is this stack of vintage books from the 1930s illustrated by one of my favorite children's illustrator...Fern Bisel Peat.
Such gorgeous illustrations.
Chris spotted them for me and I was honestly surprised no one had picked them up at 50% off.
These beautiful books are in great condition.
I can't wait to "gently" share them with Josie.
Other purchases included these pretty glasses.
A basket of vintage Christmas.
More Christmas.
You already saw this mug back on
this post to use for Josie's Western cowgirl party.
I also picked up this stack of bushel baskets to use for birthday party decor.
Although I would prefer to get all of Josie's birthday decor at estate sales, I couldn't help myself when I found these vintage place card holders from
StraySquirrels on etsy.
Thank goodness for color copiers/scanners.
Giddy-up!
Kim,
ReplyDeleteThose little cowboys and cowgirls are too cute! I love the vintage children's books....one of my weakness's for sure....
I so wish I lived where there were good estate sales...not here...that's for sure! And the thrift stores are really slim pickings now....
Have a great week!
Sandy
