Welcome back to another week of garage sale finds Friday, where I share with you my favorite garage sale finds.
This week I've got some fun woody goodies and a pretty little something. One of my finds even got a little transformation that will be revealed on Tuesday. Wonder if you can guess which one.
I'm a sucker for these old secretary desks. I just love how they open and hold all your desk goodies, but close and keep it all a secret. I love being able to close the door on messes!
I rarely go to multiple day {or weekly} garage sales because so much of the good stuff has been picked over, but I happened on one that had been going every weekend and I hadn't been to it because we had been on vacation. This desk was originally marked $40, but they crossed it out a few times and it was down to $10. No negotiating needed on my part.
I rarely pass up mirrors at garage sales. This guy is heavy! You can't see it from the picture but the mirror is starting to do that cool patina aging thing where it turns colors and it's awesome. There really is nothing special about the frame, I just loved the aging mirror part! And for $5 I couldn't pass it up.
I love a good frame. I'm pretty sure this one used to hold a canvas of some sort because it's got a cool linen surround but the canvas is there no longer and for $2, it will be perfect for a holding some kind of sign or picture I create.
And finally, check out this adorable yellow plaid cup and saucer. Isn't it the cutest? It actually came as a whole set but this guy was the oddball. I just love how happy and yellow and fun it is don't you? I paid a quarter for this guy and have gotten a quarters worth of joy out of it already.
