What I Brought Home From The World's Longest Yard Sale!

And now the moment you've all been waiting for! Ha! Here is what we brought home from the World's Longest Yard Sale! I felt like I got way less than last year, but comparing it to last year's picture it seems about the same. Check it out!

I got two flocked reindeer for a quarter each! The little fawn lamp is so sweet. I put it on my bedside table. It is perfect for reading late at night when Travis has already gone to sleep. I'm on the lookout for a small fiberglass shade for it.

I got a few pairs of salt and pepper shakers for my collection, just like last year. Elsie and Elmer are so cute. Elsie is one of my favorite advertising mascots of all time! You can see the peanut shakers we got there to the right.

I have been wanting a set of cute cows like this forever! I see them a lot, but never at a price I liked. I'm glad to finally have this cute pair.

 Poodles of course! i can't resist this style especially. 

 And you know I couldn't resist this little homemade guy with the rhinestone eyes. 

This mug is pretty much all Travis bought. He said he used to go to Druther's when he was a kid. Under the mug is a milk glass mixing bowl. I had been looking for a bowl that size.

I really didn't see many dream pets this year. But I couldn't resist this little guy from Six Flags over Georgia! What a cute souvenir! I need to cut that ragged ribbon off him.

I didn't realize how much I loved old trophies before. The taller one is for Miss Chattanooga in the Miss America pageant system. The little one supposedly belonged to a cowboy who participated in rodeos until he was 85! I love how the plastic horse looks on top. It will look good with my collection of old horse books.

 A close up on pretty Miss America.

 It is hard to get a good photo of this dish, but isn't it pretty? I try to store all our food in glass instead of plastic, so I'm always on the lookout for good looking glass storage pieces.

This is a sheet of temporary tattoos from the 1950's! The vendor who had this actually sells at the Nashville Flea Market and I've almost bought a sheet of these so many times! I finally bit the bullet. I plan on framing them for my wild west guest room.

I bought that big photo of the baby for the frame. I love the black and gold floral detail. I'm going to put a photo from my collection in it, I just haven't decided which yet.

 Speaking of photos, I brought home a BUNCH. Including a large tinted one!

I mostly brought home dog photos, as usual. With a few Christmas, Halloween, photobooth, and vacation photos sprinkled in there. I'll scan some and show you the highlights another day!

 I found this sweet little album as well! It is totally blank, and I'll fill it with some of my photos! It is hard to read in this photo, but it says "Snaps" on the front! I've seen these before, but not one with a dog on the cover. It couldn't be more perfect.

And last but not least, our last purchase of the weekend! I found this fiberglass shade hanging from a rope in a tent. The lady didn't even make me barter, she came way down on the price before I even said I was interested! I have been looking for a shade like this to go with the masonic temple lamp I bought at an estate sale last month. 

 Here it is in action! Perfection!

Notice the fancy cat hole in my blinds. Haha. I keep saying I'll replace those, but really, what is the point?
I feel pretty happy about what we brought home this year! We even came in under budget!
