Estate Sale

Estate sales around here can be pretty disappointing. If granny chic is your style, this place is a goldmine…but affordable scores can be elusive for me. So, I was pretty excited to bring home this little stash for $10.
The CC has had his nose in this awesome book since the moment I brought it home. (Think how to make a molded plywood chair kinda awesome.)
I’ve been collecting these Dorothy Thorpe glasses for about 12 years now, but ever since Mad Men featured them... poof! The lamp requires no explanation.
Have a great weekend..go junkin’!
Nice finds! Thanks for giving me the bug, now a thriftin’ I will go.
Dorothy Thorpe! I have many of these glasses in my bar-ware collection and I had seen the name before but couldn’t remember who they were by. Nice little haul! I haven’t done estate sales in a while. I can’t just hit 2 or 3. I have to hit like a dozen and it starts at about 7 am (P.S., I’m not a morning person!) and last until about 1 pm. Ugh, it totally kills the rest of the day. And then it just kills me to walk up to the door and see someone walk out with what turns out to be the ONLY thing that I would have bought. It can be so frustrating. But then again, sometimes you find those true gems!
