~Estate Sale Goodies~
My mom and I went to a local estate sale Thursday. At first, I thought everything was overpriced (in the house), but when I went out to the garage, I found some vintage goodies that were more in my price range..... 
Such as this vintage wallpaper-covered box with drawers. I have wanted one of these "4-ev-uh"!! Finally I have one!!
Also this old sewing box, still filled with notions. 
The inside is a bit musty smelling and dirty, but I'm sure I can freshen it up!
Sweet little band of old flowers.
A vintage wastebasket with a bluebird on it! Oh my!! Also needs a (very) good cleaning, but..... !!!!! My mom found a cute little rabbit for her garden..... my mom is not into vintage/shabby/chippy/rusty like I am, so we shop well together! (well, except for her wondering, sometimes outloud, "What on earth do you want THAT old thing for?" LOL! )
Hope you have a great weekend!!

Becca, love the boxes and the little drawer thing is amazing. I never have a way to go to estate or garage sales, so Goodwill is my only outlet, but I have found some great things. I love your living room and who would have thought of putting a beautiful dresser in it. Oh girl, you are filling my head with dreams. Love Ya, Pat
Love your finds, especially the vintage drawer box. As I write this comment, I am looking at a pict of the most lovely cups from your previous post and a wonderful table setting with jadite cups on your sidebar....Wow, you really have my decor favorites to a T. :-)
My dad used to say the same thing to me! He said I should have lived in "another time"...lol. I love to find old sewing items! Amazing what people store in there!~Hugs, Patti
OMG and they weren't overpriced! awesome! they are amazing storage goodies, looooove them, especially the boxes. oh and that sweet birdie!
What sweet finds! Sorry that your mother doesn't appreciate your tastes, but like you said, it makes it easier on you when you shop...no fights! lol
You always can share your shabby chic/chippy finds with us though....we love them.
Basements and garages have the best stuff at estate sales!
Sweet finds, Becca. Have never seen little drawers like that! Never know what goodies you will find at these sales.
