I found a community garage sale not far from me last week. I love these things because I get to hit more garage sales in one area at one time. Here are some of the great things I found.
I’ve been keeping an eye out for books. I see a lot of paperbacks at most garage sales, but at this particular sale, this lady had out some nice looking books.
I picked up the four classics for either myself or my daughter {my daughter took them}.
I bought the little red books for myself ~ Hans Christian Anderson Fairy Tales. I love the bright red and their little size.
At this same house, I also found this blue key plaque {which I’ve already started painting}. At another house, I found lots of linens and bought these two sets of napkins.
I bought this little guy at a house where I purchased a counter stool and a vanity stool. I showed you the counter stool makeover here and I’m working on the vanity stool now.
I also got a little wood sled that is also in the midst of being painted and I hope to show that soon, too. All in all, a fantastic garage sale day with beautiful weather {before the heat wave hit} and lots of great things to buy!

Great finds Kathy! Garage sales have been slow here because of the heat and rain - but I am hoping this weekend I will find some treasure since the weather has been beautiful the last few days here in Ontario!

What fun finds, Kathy! I always look for books, don't know how I'd style anything without them! :)
Great treasures. It has been way to hot to go to sales here. I love the linens and the books, gorgeous. Hugs, Marty
I don't blame you for picking up those red books I would have too. It looks like you got more lovely things from the yard sale too.
Love it when there are a few garage sales in one area! The red books will be nice for decorating with too!
LOVE your Christmas stockings!
Happy Weekend!
Warmly,

Great finds Kathy..Having just moved, books were the hardest things to get rid of..Have a great weekend.
You found some really great things and I LOVE those little red books! xo Diana
Wow, you have had a great time at yard sales. I haven't been very lucky lately. I like those neighborhood sales, too, except for the traffic- it can be a nightmare navigating through the double parked cars!
Great finds!
Wonderful finds, Kathy! I especially love the set of napkins with the lace edges.
Have a great weekend!
Hugs,
Julia
Kathy, you really hit the jackpot! Wow! I love the vintage books and linens- my favorites! The key is a great find too!
