Once again Lucas had to be chauffeured to Sacramento for his engineering camp. So, what's a girl to do? Shop. For some reason Christmas things were just jumping out at me. I know....stop. It's nuts but, Christmas has already been discussed in our family. Sickening. So, here are a few of the things I found. I really needed a new tablecloth (Sure) and I was really pulled towards this one. Maybe it's the 12 days of Christmas theme, maybe it's because it's obviously never been used, or because it's Macy's Charter Club...who knows. I like it. Doesn't match my wedding china, but maybe I'll find a set Christmas dishes tomorrow.

| Got this nice big rusty bucket today too. $4.99. I might do some up-cycling. Not sure. Since I am on a Christmas kick...it WOULD be good for our book a night advent calendar. |

| 10 pipers....11? Pipers piping.... |
 |
| some number drummers drumming.... |

This also played a role in why I bought it.

| Thought these were adorable. "A Happy Holiday To You" Royal Crownford, By Norma Sherman. Staffordshire, England. |
 |
| I don't even remember 1996. No milestones...what's wrong with me? I'll probably start a whole new collection now! |
 |
| 1995....nope. Nothing. But it's cute. $2.99 each. Steep for this garage sale girl but, I like them |
 |
| Awwww |
 |
| Not sure what was going on today. Maybe I slipped and fell and hit my head on some mistletoe? I was not seeking out Christmas stuff. I just realized later that...that's what I got. At different Goodwill stores too. This is Target...I recognize it. Tag said $14.99. It is like new and I like hook rugs. It matches my colors...I paid $3.99. |
I like the warm colors. Will be nice in the entry...in half a year!!!!! LOL
Hum....I am craving eggnog now. :)

What great finds! I seem to buy most of my Christmas stuff in the summer months - especially at yard sales :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful finds - It is not a bad thing to find Christmas things now - it will be here before we know it! I usually skim over the Christmas things at Goodwill - I should pay more attention - LOVE your rusty bucket! Great price - I have enjoyed my stroll through your blog and am your newest follower,
