Met Monday

I went to a few yard sales this past week and wanted to share some of  my finds!  I was on my way to work Friday morning and I saw a yard sale sign in my neighborhood and decided to stop by for a minute and I am so glad I did.  Here are a few of my finds! 

The pitcher was $3 and the vintage silverware was $3 also…

I got the glass at another yard sale a few weeks ago…

The marble cutting board I got for $2!!  I could not believe it!  It is so heavy and I just loved it!

The little glass covered dish I also got.  I have seen these before and I don’t know what they are for, but I loved it and it was $2 as well.  The little ladies who had this sale were precious sweet!

This little dish was $1…

I also found the little rabbit rowing a boat and of course, seeing as to how I am a rabbit lover, had to have it!!  The drawing behind it I bought from Michelle Palmer.  She does the MOST amazing ink drawings and if you are not familiar with her or her jaw dropping talent, please check out her blog!!  I am SUCH a fan of hers…..

Well, these are a few of my lucky finds!  I have another one that I will share later in the week!  I am linking up with Susan for Met Monday at Between Naps On The Porch, Motivate Me Monday at Keeping it Simple and Rhoda at Southern Hospitality for Thrifty Treasures!  Please check it out! 

And thank you so much for visiting!

  1. Stop it! I have a bunny rowing a boat, too, Lou Cinda! I used to keep it right near our pond {until we filled it in}. Love the print in the background, I will have to check out her blog.

  12. You are one lucky duck! I'm so jealous! That rowing bunny rabbit - I would've arm wrestled you for that sweet thang! ha! Oh and you are the second person I've seen who puts their flatware in a glass like that and I just love how that looks!
    See? I just get so much inspiration from my blog friends!

  13. I love what you found, lady! You got some neat things there.

    I think that little box might be a butter dish, but I'm not sure. That would be my guess.

    Those rabbits are too, too cute! I can understand how they hopped into your car along with the other goodies you found!

    XO,
