MY WEEKEND FINDS

Thanks for tuning in to another episode of My Weekend Finds, the continuing saga of one girl's quest for more junk!

The garage saling season has just about ground to a halt. Lately the pickings are so bad that sometimes we do a drive-by, not even bothering to get out of the car. That is until I saw this aqua case sitting on a table at a sale. We were almost past the driveway when I yelled for my friend Nancy to STOP!!! I was pretty sure it was something that I had been waiting all summer to find.

And I was right. Inside that case was a vintage aqua typewriter! It looks scrumptious next to the pink radio, doesn't it? I can't wait to do a little Halloween vignette around it, so stay tuned! 

I found a few additions to my holiday collections, like this Easter die cut and fantastically tacky plastic decoration. Just what my collection needed: A bunny playing a banjo!

Another Lefton candy cane girl and some little bottle brush trees.

Finally. FINALLY I found a Gurley witch candle!

Some Beistle honeycomb Thanksgiving decorations, found in a bag at the thrift store. The girl pilgrim was missing, and I can only imagine that she must be busy somewhere, rattling some pans and whipping up a fabulous Thanksgiving dinner!

I also found a bunch of vintage magazines, and this one is my favorite, because that illustration on the cover pretty much sums up how I feel about housework! So, what kind of treasures did you find last week?
