I really found some fun things at the garage sales this weekend--a great old copper tub, a wooden box, a birdcage, a scale and some drill bits for my husband.
I was thrilled to find this old Wayrite scale. But....the biggest bummer of the day was that a girl right before me grabbed the cutest rusty old blue scale. And she paid $3 for it!! I would've preferred to have not even seen it. :) But, I keep telling myself that I have LOTS of scales, so it was not for me this time.... And, this scale that I did find is very fun!
Here it is in the house with some other recent garage sale finds (and a bird feeder from HomeGoods).
This little birdcage caught my eye. I didn't care for it in black, but figured I could paint it.
Now it's blue/green.
I love this old box! It's a perfect size to hold lots and lots of magazines.
My husband is in the process of cleaning up the copper tub. I will post about it when it's all spiffed up.
Thanks for your visit!

Oh, and I know what you mean about the scale! Twice, now, on eBay, I have forgotten about (and therefore missed) two fabulous scales...missed them by $1!! (It doesn't bother me if I miss out on something that goes for big bucks, but when I'm outbid by $1, it really gets me! LOL)
ReplyDeleteAnne
