Yard Sailing....

my-oh-my... it was a great weekend of treasure hunting. I got a lot of jewelry... for fa-ree!! CrAzY! A lot I can repurpose.....
Along with some junque jewelry.... for pirate loot...
I got seven unopened boxes of tie dye kits and three packages of tie dye markers. New, the boxes were $12.99 and the markers were $8.99 for a total cost of: $118.00. I paid three dollars for all of it. Next summer, I see some tie dyed bed sheets, t-shirts... and whatever else my two grand kids want to tie dye!
A lot of fabulous cook books for baking cupcakes and cakes...
and some craft books, these two piles for only $5.00!
Thirteen sets of brand new alphabet rubber stamps,
and an assortment of brand new chalks, chalk brushes, ink pads, molds, embossing powders, a pile of stickers, more stamps and 3 rolls of washi tape. I got everything shown above and below for only $10.00.

Fun times, fun times... now to find the time to play with all this new stuff!

  5. Fantastic job finding all the jewelry....nice. My mother picked up this busy necklace and earrings at a yard sale that was a bit much for me, but I ended up making two pieces (2 necklaces and two pairs of earrings) so far with parts from that one....and still more to go. You could turn out some great stuff with all that.
