Best thrifty day ever!
I had a great day at the yard sales today and wanted to share. This is gonna be quick with just descriptions :)
Chair I am going to refashion in aqua and red. I am gonna paint it in the same blue as the candelabra. Paid $5.00.
Candelabra that was off white, dingy and dirty. I cleaned it up and painted it. Paid 50 cents.
Disney, Peter Pan, and Golden Book records. I think I am going to start collecting these because I love the illustrations. Paid $1 each
More records. Paid $1 each.
Vintage embroidery transfers. Paid 50 cents for a large bag of them.
Fire King Sugar Bowl. Paid $1.
Pyrex bowl. Paid 50 cents.
Glasbake divided dish. Paid 50 cents.
And the find of the day! A singer featherweight with case and buttonholer. Paid $20. I am so glad I found one of these. I have been looking FOREVER!
Have a great weekend ya'll :)
What a score! I can't wait to see the refashioned chair, I love red & aqua. :)

I'm sure you know how much this featherweight usually costs, what a steal!!! The pyrex in light blue pattern is almost free, too... you got a crazy deal!
