First day of October! It's finally here! And.. it's been raining for 3 days straight. I do love rainy, fall days, but I really planned on doing some outdoor decorating today! I feel like I'm so behind! Oh well, hopefully tomorrow is better. I did get up extra early for a church rummage, where I only spent $1.25 - unfortunately there was a huge mob of people and they were selling mostly newer stuff. I did manage to score some goodies today at a few picked over estate sales and a rummage sale.
Cute cat figurines.
Floating candles.
An unopened package of made in Japan Styrofoam Easter chicks. .25 cents!
One of my favorite things to find: plastic clothespins!
Really adorable recipe box. Now if I could find a matching bread box..
Knickerbocker toys: a pink chick, and a stork rattle.
Some eighties today: a Care Bear Cousin, a chipmunk, Gloworm, cabbage patch kid, and half of a Nerful!
Some old ornament caps. You never know when you'll need a Shiny Brite cap!
Libbey frosted ice tea glasses. These are addictive!
Four red and white striped Hazel Atlas drink glasses and a gold drink holder: $3.00!
I saw these in a picture ad for a rummage sale at around 2:00pm. I expected it to be long gone! So happy it wasn't!
Baret Ware tin. I'm always a sucker for Baret Ware.
I got this at the same rummage as the drink holder/glass cups. Also $3.00. It works great! I needed a "new" kitchen radio.
Dennison paper die cut. The cat is too cute.
Another Dennison die cut. I have a smaller version of this too.
Bummer. But it displays nicely in my vintage Halloween cabinet - you can't really tell it's cracked from the front, which is a good thing. I tested the light with some fresh batteries, and it doesn't work. I think I need to pick up a new bulb
A happy pair of JOLs!
Cute little recipe booklet. The colors are what grabbed my attention.
My October kitchen cart set up. Lots of oranges, yellows, and reds.
You can even see my orange Pyrex nesting bowl. :-)
I also displayed my 2016 Halloween Pyrex. They have them at Target for $5.00 a piece - black cats, sugar skulls, and owls.
More Halloween on the top of my kitchen display cabinet. The poofy owl cracks me up!
And finally, a picture of Nermal the Cat. His favorite spot to take a late afternoon nap.
