Yard saleing

No real goal of yard saleing, but when I was out I stopped at a few. The first one was right across the street from me and it was so good I stopped by twice. The first time I got a brass chandelier ($4) that once I paint it black will replace the track lighting in my bedroom. Oh yeah... track lighting and an ugly ceiling fan seem to be the theme here. I also found a 5 qt. cast iron dutch oven ($5) and a peg coat rack thing to hang on the wall (75¢).

Second yard sale was on the way to the store for the boys to stock up for movie night. Found a king size duvet and matching shams ($5) that should look pretty good with my new headboard. Also got a chenille throw that matches the duvet ($1), a solid wood shelf ($1), 3 rectangle vases (25¢ each). At the last yard sale I found two small framed mirrors ($1 for both).

On my way out with a friend I stopped back at the one across the street. They had just put out 4 plastic chairs and a matching table. (You know... those green ones?) I got them all for $5. Considering that we are having a bunch of people over on Monday and only have 5 lawn chairs, it was a good find.
