~GARAGE SALE DAY..~

Saturday was garage sale day.  We both enjoy getting out and having a little treasure hunt. 

I found some things I really liked this time!

This little oval silver box was the first thing I came across.  It is quite heavy and was so tarnished that I didn't even realize the name "Rosemary" was inscribed on the lid. 

I photographed it on my hutch and the floral arrangement reflected in the lid.

 ...so I took another..

This inside is lined with deep blue velvet.  I just put a necklace inside so you can see.

$3.00

(Wherever you are, I will take good care of it for you, Rosemary!)

Next I found this oblong lovely silver jewelry box.  No inscription on the lid this time..but once again very tarnished.  The inscription plate was blank but now gleams.

This lovely box was $4.00

This lovely silver dish was another find.  My favorite pattern.  Again..very heavy but very tarnished.

Price?  $2.00

I have MORE to show you tomorrow.  I tell you, it was a GOOD day!

I also have a story to tell you and I want your advice.  It's a "what would you do" story.

Ok?

So...off to bed to do some reading about King Henry the 8th and his wives.  Love that English history.

I think it's the photo's and descriptions of the palaces that fascinate me.  Nothing like I envisioned at all.  Cold, dark dreary.  And the antiquated toilet system...horrible! 

No more Fairy Tale idea's.  Reality sets in with History.

Really fascinating!

..nity nite!
