The same friends who had this amazing sale last year had another one last week and I had to go. I wasn't able to make it until they had been open a few hours, so I missed out on tons of stuff, but I still found a few treasures. Going through their stuff put me in the junking mood so I did a quick search and found a sale advertised in Old Hickory that had toys from the 50's and 60's. Sold!
Here is what I came home with:
If you've been following along you know we're in the midst of a big home clean out. So should I really be visiting sales and bringing home old toys? I feel fine about it actually. How is that moth tin so cute? I hung it in our kitchen where we have lots of vintage red stuff on the walls. I got that little Santa Claus, Indiana plate for our newly hung state plate hall. And I think I'll put that bunny plaque somewhere to hang our keys on.
I can't leave behind a flocked deer, especially not for 25 cents! And the little white tag on the bear says "Great Smokey Mountains."

Look at how cute this lady is! I haven't seen one like her before.
This little view finder was in a jumble of jewelry and I expected to see some kind of vacation scene. Maybe the capitol building or the beach. But instead I saw this:
So I HAD to buy it. I love her expression!
This little caiman was tucked on a top shelf in the basement. His hands are missing but I've been wanting one of these (another one I guess, I got one for Christmas) and couldn't pass up the great 50% off day price! Even without hands he is still cute.
I spent less than 20 bucks and got a nice junk fix. What a fun morning!
I had to share these too! Not from a sale, I got these from a friend on instagram. I LOVE THEM! I have a small kokeshi collection, and these teeny candle holders are just too cute. I need to get some vintage birthday candles to use with them. The holes are a little too small for modern candles. The box is so perfect too! Maybe I'll put this in a little shadowbox or something so I can enjoy them all the time.
