Garage Sales!!

Since this is my very first post for Decor on a Dollar I wanted to share with you one of the great places I like to find those "one-of-a-kind" pieces!!

This past weekend was jam packed with garage sale hopping!
A nearby town was having a community garage sale {which are the BEST} and we found great little treasures around every corner :}

Here are a few of my favorite finds:
Starting at the top left:
*Never used, 6x8 ft piece of carpet.
We are planning to use this for our daughter play area
in the garage! PERFECT!
*The cutest BEE broch!
I just had to have it, I am a little obssesed with
birds, pears, and bees!
*The Radio Flyer Ride-on Car was FREE!
I know crazy right, but our neighbor was just giving it away,
so of course we wanted it, my daughter loves it!
Bottom left:
*YES!! A vintage wooden skate board!
This is actually a gift for my Dad,
he used to have one just like it as a kid and I think he will love to have it!
*Cast-Iron mini bird bath, another must have, especially since it already has that great distressed, rustic look!
*This was just a fun find for my daughter, I am calling it an "astro ball" because I am not really sure what it is called!
{Anyway, my husband always wanted one of these as a kid, so he might be playing with it more than the kids... just kidding honey ;}

Do you have a favorite garage sale find?


Happy Hopping,
Erica

  1. Congrats on all you great finds. My favorite garage sale find is a chenille bedspread, white on white with dots and great fringe. I love that bedspread.
