Well, of course Saturday was garage sale day but didn't come up with a whole lot. Besides, we were both coming down with colds so it was a very short morning.
Poor Patient Husbands voice was unrecognizable! Would he stay home? NO!!

I did find something a bit interesting and wondered if you might know what it was used for.
It isn't a curtain..but it is fairly long as you can see.
Whatever it is, think it is lovely. It seems to be specially made for something. I thought perhaps an alter cloth? Any idea's? Just a tiny seam is at the oposite end..The plain white fabric is very soft and delicate. Price was $2.00.
Next I found a pair of sconses. Extremely heavy! No glass shades came with them but since I collect shades for such things and have a shelf of them in the garage, it was no problem at all finding a set to fit them. See? A tiny bit of hoarding can be a good thing. Maybe? :)
Sorry these pictures are so bad.
I have no idea what they are made of but they are not silver. They are beautifully made. We had to drill into the morter as I didn't really want to drill into the brick.
I think we hung them a wee high and a wee wide..but that can be fixed...someday. What a pain it was trying to figure out where to put them. They are just too high to suit me...
They cost me $3.00 for the pair. Not bad at all.
This 13 inch tall tin pitcher with an embossed leaf on the side. My favorite butter yellow and so perfect for a spring bouquet. 25 cents.
And last of all, two novels by John Grisham, one of my favorite authors. Price? 25 cents each and I don't think they have ever been opened.
By this time we were ready for our coffee, juice, hotcakes and eggs at our favorite little Lucky Greek restaurant where the owner, Tony, always wants to know what we found, sits with us and chats it up for awhile.
Total for the mornings shopping.. $5.75
And that was our Saturday morning.
Love and hugs,
Mona
