My Community Garage Sale Haul

Well, after weeks of high hopes of finding lots of things for my booth at the community garage sale here, I was a little disappointed.  I did get several things that I was quite happy with.  The best thing I found was a jogging stroller for my daughter for $50.00 {it was priced at $60.00 and the people were selling it for their neighbor, with a low sell price direction from her of $50.00 ~ I originally offered $40.00}.  At any rate, it looks like it was never used and when I got home I looked them up and saw similar for $300-$400.00! 

This great chair {$10.00}, which is nice and sturdy.  I’m going to give it some new batting and change the chair seat fabric on that, but otherwise I think I will leave it alone.

Love this chalkboard {$5.00}.  I’m going to paint the face of it and add an embellishment to the top, but leave the edging with the black and white checks.

This wire basket hook thingy {$3.00}.  I’m going to spray paint this Heirloom White to freshen it up.

Three doilies {$.25 each}.  After a wash, I can use these to add to pillows or totes.  A pretty little pink rosebud topiary {$3.00} and a frame {$4.00}, which came from the same person, who told me that she thought it was funny I picked them up together as she had them displayed in her home together.

I skipped over tables since I feel like that’s all I’ve been doing lately, and there were quite a few people selling side tables.   There was also lots of baby things and clothes, which I usually pass by.  I’m sure there will be more garage sales now that the weather is nicer.  This one is nice because you can park on a street and walk along to hit the houses participating in the sale.
