Yard Sale Finds – June

I am determined to catch up on my June treasures here before the end of the month! It's been tough with a busy yard sale season, Clover Markets, end-of-school activities and a big birthday number for me and Little Miss VJIMT. Lots to blog about!

I found this whole box of old photos at one sale and started sorting through them.

Don't know what I'm going to do with them or how to sell them, but I love the Christmas ones!

This one cracks me up.

Love the skier!

Here are the rest of our finds. You can't see them, but there are two great suitcases piled up under all that stuff. Not as good as the ones Melissa's Antiques found recently, but still.

Little box of bits and pieces for crafting and a vintage beaded plant holder. I had to ask what it was on my Instagram page and luckily, Monkeybox Shara had the answer!

A couple of wedding cake toppers from the 1960s, Christmas bells and linens, and a white rabbit fur stole.

Adorable Christmas mouse guy, some silverplate, a tin shovel, and a sweet blue/green teapot. 

I bought these Victorian cast iron claw and glass ball feet off of a local vintage-selling Facebook page -- I've always thought they were pretty cool. Don't know what to do with them though -- too heavy for jewelry yet too light for bookends. Any ideas?

Oh, yeah, this pale green vintage wicker desk and chair too. It was a great deal!

I found those bells in the original box at a yard sale a few years ago. Every year, I struggle with how to display them! They may end up getting sold this year. I say that a lot :-)

Keep 'em comin'! I think I like those old Christmas photos too!

How large are the claw feet? Depending on the scale...

Could you use them as pegs for a coat rack, hat rack or something like that?

Could you use them as legs for a funky old cabinet?
