An Estate Sale Story

An estate sale.

At the home of a deceased 

Antique/Collectible dealer.

Her name was Dorothy.

Fenton, Wedgewood, Limoge, and all the Royals were there.

Paintings, lawn decor, and tools. The kitchen contained loads of jewelry. The fine china and such was in the garage. There was a Christmas closet...I did not have time to look in there.

An out building full of display cases and one dollar items and silver plate.

Two other out buildings full of glassware and  boxes.

I did not bring my camera {please pinch me}.

♥♥♥

There was a huge old garden gate,  a trellis and an arbor.

A doll and purse room in a whole separate building next to the main house.

Tents...oh there were tents for what the sellers said was "garage sale" items. Packed in boxes. I went through many boxes and found better than garage sale items.

There was a gold and pink French chair that I wanted but Joe rolled his eyes until I nearly smacked him.

Have I mentioned the prices were wonderful and they were willing to deal with you on  price?

What did we get?

Cloches my friends and lots of them.

Five to be exact {one not shown}.

One is terribly large! {in first image}

The three in the plastic container I paid a dollar for total. That is .33 cents a piece! The one in the foreground above Joe paid one dollar.

Craziness I know.

They were under a tent and covered in pollen.

I will show what I did with that metal flower thing later darlings.

Dorothy had so many items the estate sale company has been preparing this house for the sale since January.

We were at the house for two hours and did not see everything. Rats.


Joe bought a wrench. He said it was a girlie sale and it was.
