I had so much fun this morning - all in about one hour!!  I saw a sign in my neighborhood that said "Mile Long Garage Sale".  Well, come to find out, it was a neighborhood association sponsoring a garage sale that encompassed one square mile that surrounded my house!  SCORE!

 

It was just one sale after another and I did find some goodies.

 

 

 

 

Aren't these plates gorgeous?  The blue china "thing" is made to hold mail.  Some pretty little dishes - see the one with the cherries in the upper photo?

 

 

On the whole front of the table are baby clothes.  The lady said they were hers and had been made mostly by her aunt and grandmother.  There was a whole sack of them.  Can you see all of the beautiful embroidery on this one?

 

 

This wooden duck is a sewing caddy.  The wings are padded for a pincushion and the dowels hold thread.  There is a hole going from the back to the front of his head to hold a small pair of scissors.

 

 

I've always wanted a Hummel - but for fifty cents????

 

 

Of course, I found some pretty linens and doilies.....

 

 

a pretty piece of Silverplate.....

 

 

and this dainty little cup and saucer.

 

 

My good friend Dorothy has been helping me collect vintage salt and pepper shakers and had found all of these for me.

 

Thanks Dorothy!

 

So, I had a very good morning.

 

Enjoy!

 

Till next time, Judy
