Saturday finds

Pam and I found quite a few yard sales this morning. Here are my treasures...
 These lamp shades were 25 cents each!
....and here they are on the chandelier I bought a couple of weeks ago. It wouldn't work in my bedroom, but looks great as a porch light.
A collectible tin for $1...this reminds me of my daddy..
Wicker frames $1 each........I might use them as wreaths..
More toys $1.50  for all....You should have seen Pam and I digging through boxes for these!
A collectible spoon for $1.... I got this because Justin is from West Virginia..
K for Kayla...I got it for $3 instead of $5...
A martini lamp for $2.......book 25 cents

Candlestick 25 cents and wooden model $1....
Toys for Della..$1 each.......
Japanese ceramics $2....
Ceramic toothbrush holder 25 cents....
Shelf for $3 and  8 notebooks 25 cents each....
Brass Buddha 25 cents ... elephants 25 cents each...
 Trinket boxes 50 cents each..... The lady that had these elephants had a small shed full of elephant figurines. I'll bet there were 100+ elephants in that shed! After we got home, it dawned on us that we should have taken a picture of all those elephants. DOH!
 Spool of twine 5 cents, wooden spool, thimble, small donkey, and the box they're in ..25 cents each.

Runner for my hallway $5..... Pam got one just like this and a round rug..

Whew! I know that's a lot of pictures but I enjoy showing you all of my deals.
I finished another shawl last night. I used Lionbrand Suede. The pattern calls for Lionbrand Amazing which I will try next time. Sloan was my model.


See the popsicle in his hand? That's mine! :-)
How was your Saturday?

I was just wondering where Sloan was, and there he showed up! Did he shop the yards with you today too?
