This past weekend my cousin came out on Saturday and we got in the car and hit 7 local secondhand stores and 9 in the surrounding area. We even managed to get lunch in between. The only problem with my cousin and me going together is we both like a lot of the same items. It's a challenged to see who gets through the door first and who finds the things the other one would like first. We're at the point now were we say if you don't get it I will. Boy did I get a lot of stuff. As soon as I get the pictures done I'll post my finds.
These plastic containers reminded me of my grandmother. I'm not sure why they do they just do.
This pamphlet I found in my grandmothers stuff it's B.C. Electric Home Service News from October 1948 it has recipes, tips for sending things overseas for Christmas and things they might like for Christmas in England since there were still shortages because of the war.
More Fall Color Pyrex.
This small blue art glass vase I found at the local flea market. It has no markings the lady who sold it to me said it is Yugoslavian glass.
This brooch is unsigned but made me think of Fall.
I found this biscuit tin and thought with the ducks on it, it would be good to get to use in a Fall display.
I do not know who's in the car but I'm guessing the car might be a Ford at Central Park in New York 1916.
The little girl is either my boyfriends mother or her sister.
Thanks for visiting.

This past week I've not had time to get out and look for some new finds so the following are some items I haven't had time to post. On Saturday we had a garage sale that went well though the rain did not stay away the whole time. We had quite a few people, including some interesting characters.
This collage of photo items are finds, gifts and family items.
I'm storing my grandmother's vintage wedding dress for my mother. My grandmother would have worn it in November 1943.
The necklace on the top is made by Sherman and a birthday gift to me from my boyfriend.
The necklace on the bottom is Scottish.
From The Family Collection
This picture of these flowers made me think of something you would see at a wedding.
I took this picture of a wedding cake topper at the antique mall.
I saw this classic Limousine stop and some grad students all dressed up got out. I had to go over and have a look I should write information down when I get it but of course I don't if I remember right I believe he said it was a 1938.
I found the Fire King Jadeite mugs at the local secondhand store last week.
