Garage sales are pretty much done for the season here in Minnesota. Here are some of my later season garage sale and thrift shop finds.
A wooden calendar with hand painted months and days. My first thought was to use it as a Church sign for hymns. Not sure yet, but it's a fun find. $9.99 at Goodwill.
$10 local thrift shop stool with rush seat. Sturdy.
A little "too cutesy" with the hearts. It will get a makeover!
$3 wood and metal kitchen recipe holder.
This has possibilities as a photo holder as well. (Not many recipes on cards anymore.) A makeover/re-purpose coming!
A $2 find at the thrift shop.
An already re-purposed shelf/tray made from yardsticks.
It had two holes on the bottom. Maybe a shadowbox.
This could be used "as is".
Garage sale set of three vintage cherries on stripes metal canisters.
They are in excellent condition. Not rusty, but a few small dings. They seller knew they were in great shape. I paid $12.
An enamelware red and white pot without lid on the garage sale free table!
A rather rare flour sifter from Occident. The little measuring cup with red wooden handle was free.
I paid $10 for the sifter!
25 cents a piece for the Eiffel Towers in metal.
I'd say the sellers took a trip to Paris in the past and brought home a souvenir.
One was a pencil sharpener.
A small washboard for $1 at a garage sale.
It almost seems like the washboard has Rit dye stains on it. I may paint it.
From Goodwill, a very well made oak Lazy Susan.
I paid $6.99.
Small rolling pin from a local thrift shop with black handles. $2.
A garage sale mustard colored window! $1 at a garage sale.
An Ansco Cadet camera from about 1960, 127 size film. 50 cents at a garage sale.
Another 127 film size vintage camera, a Mar-crest. 75 cents.
And last but not least, a vintage Kodak Tourist folding camera for $5 at a garage sale.
Adding these to a small collection of older cameras that I use for decorating and staging.
I hope that you enjoy seeing my finds.
Thanks for visiting!

My heart stopped when I saw the cherries canister set. Really hoping they don't get a makeover.
