Featured Collectible – Vintage String Art – 70’s Craft Series #1

The next several Featured Collectible posts are going to be a series about one of my current obsessions – 1970’s crafts! It seems like there was just as big of a crafting trend happening in the 70’s as there has been in the last few years… Luckily a lot of those crafters’ work has survived to be re-discovered today! I will be forever grateful for all the “keepers” in this world… ;)

I’m starting off with vintage String Art – not only are there amazing finished pieces out there, there are also a lot of unopened, original kits that you can buy if you want to give it a try. Let’s take a look – as always just click the link below the photos to check out the listings!

Thrift Haul – Church Rummage Sale Goodness!

      6 Comments on Thrift Haul – Church Rummage Sale Goodness!

I had a busy weekend of treasure hunting – 6 estate sales, a couple garage sales, and 2 awesome church rummage sales! Oh, how I’ve missed the church sales… Let’s check out the haul!

009Could YOU leave behind a Miracle Whip cooler? I couldn’t! ;) The Snap-On tools clock works, the Burwood clock doesn’t – I might try to buy a new mechanism for it, it’s in great shape otherwise… The wood piece behind the Snap-On clock is a menorah wall hanging, which I thought was kind of unique.

The rest: metal file box, 3 Applause figural mugs (Cruella, Foghorn Leghorn, and Grumpy), metal boats, a Shmuzzle Puzzle, Hy-Score binoculars, a teak cheese plate, some Coca-Cola Christmas ornaments, and a gold glass chip and dip bowl set.

014The flower vanity mirror lights up – I held my breath as I was plugging it in to test it! The fiberglass floral set has a tray, a serving bowl, and a double snack bowl. The 4 needlepoints are all different U.S. postage stamps – that Zeppelin one is my favorite!

The 6 cast iron candle holders are marked Denmark. The mugs have little gnomes on them, which are super cute. The plastic jars I actually have another set of waiting to list, so I picked these up to sweeten the pot. Last but not least, a little Enesco clown bell. (There were about a hundred bells at that estate sale – I only came home with the one!)

What did you all find out at the sales this weekend? Feel free to leave a comment if you would like to brag, um, I mean share! ;)

Thrift Haul – 1st Community Yard Sale Of The Year!

Have I mentioned lately how much I love Spring? It’s THE BEST. This weekend I hit 2 church sales, 3 estate sales, and the first big community yard sale. The community sale was so packed full of people that I literally couldn’t find a single parking spot on the first set of streets that I went down – luckily, the other side of the neighborhood was less busy, so I was able to find some fun stuff over there. But enough of all that, let’s check out what I got!

001West Bend Pizza baker, Couroc tray, Mirro teapot, Libbey wheat glasses set, chalkware mushroom wall plaque, Hasko trays set, ceramic Beethoven (!!!), green elves cookie jar, Kenwood pitcher, and the plain box has an amazing WWII photo album full of photos that were taken in Hawaii.

011American Express carry on bag, amber glass pitcher, vintage crock pot (yes, it says Crock-A-Dial on the side!), two sets of 4 Spice O’ Life mugs are in the Houze Art boxes, vintage men’s Dexter shoes, an amazing food warming tray, and a little metal table top bookshelf.

016Last but not least, a set of Hull Pottery brown drip dishes – I got some plates, mugs, a cookie jar, and a pie plate.

I’m on track to get most of this stuff listed this week, check back on Saturday for links to the listings!
