3 1/2 Hours At One Estate Sale!

This was one "Honey Pot" of a sale...so much great stuff!!  There was a ton of digging, two trips to the car, and a couple of (excited) heart palpitations!  I have never spent this long at an estate sale, but I knew when I walked in the door and read the first few price tags that I was going to need these... smelling salts!









These lace pillows are gorgeous; they have button backs over silk forms.



How about these brown polka dot gloves?!  ...Wait, did someone say "Polka Dots"?!!  These would look mighty fine in The Polka Dot Closet!!!



Be still my heart (I love vintage lace)!!



This bedspread was so hard to get a good photo of. It has two layers of pattered tulle with a layer of tulle over the top. What a perfect flesh color...Why, I think this will be sleeping on my bed!





I was in vintage lingerie heaven.





Oh goodness!! This was so fun, I can't think of a better way to spend a Saturday morning!

  I also found some great frames and small pieces of furniture; projects I'll blog about in the future. Some of these treasures I'll keep and the rest will be going in my booth at Orange Tree Antiques.

  

Happy Creating!
