Some upcoming estate sales...


This was my view outside yesterday morning. 


It was 4 degrees and my boss agreed we should work at  home till we saw how the roads got. This was my road at 9:00 yesterday. Needless to say it didn't get much better.


We have had some of the coldest days I ever remember these past few weeks. I can't wait for spring and yard sales and estate sales. I did notice that Craig's List is already listing some upcoming estate sales in my area. So I decided to do a little dream shopping. I don't know if I will make it to any of them or not. But if I do, here are some of the things I want to look at. I love this old Hamilton Beach mixer. I have the big mixing bowl but have not been able to find the little one. The ad says this still works perfectly and they are selling the whole set for $30. Wow, what a deal


One place had this old swing for $20. I would love to have it and paint it white and cover it with pretty throw pillows and an afghan draped across the back.


Do you remember these TV trays from the 60's? These are the sturdy ones not those flimsy ones like you find today.


I love this punch bowl.


I spy Spring Blossom and Butterfly Gold Pyrex dinnerware!


Love this typewriter.


This would be perfect for my back deck. We really need to do something with it. It has nothing on it at all since we don't use it, but it is visible from the back road and looks blah.


This would be a great table for my craft room.


I love this rocking chair. It would be perfect in the corner of my living room. 


I spy Pyrex a Butterprint dish.


Love this little quilt. I want to find some used quilts this year at yard sales but don't want to pay an arm and leg.


Well, my "excursion" into estate sale land is over and I enjoyed checking everything out from the comfort of a warm house. Can't wait till spring.
