1. Wear as little clothes as possible. 2. Be heading to the pool to cool off.
Thankfully yard sales around here start at 6am. I am done and home before it is too bad outside. This week was a slow week but I found a few goodies.
Wooden tealight holder $1
Rollercoaster car $5 The lady started the price off at $10 when I asked and seeing me pass it she just kept dropping her price until I said I'd take it. The kids have rode this nonstop!
White Dishes/Pots 50 cents each. I'm thinking succulents for these.
Shelf $10 This was marked $15 but I heard him offer it to someone else for $10. When that person didn't take it I snatched it up! I thought it would look good by the pool but it may stay inside. I'm in love with all of the curves.
Birdhouse for 50 cents. This will get a coat of white for sure!
Old Library Card Catalog Holder $2

Hi Chanda! You got some great buys! Love the shelves!
Thank you for visiting my blog. I came on over to see you. First off, you garage sales start at 6am? I would love that! I like the wire shelf the best. So many things would look good on it!!!
You found some wonderful things!! I love the shelves!!
Chanda, great iron shelving unit AND you know I love those white pieces. Beautiful. Love the birdhouse too. You did really good!!
I know what you mean about the heat. Hot, hot, hot!
I sooo feel your pain. We have been at a 100 at all weekend. I'm ready for fall. Love all your thrify finds.
I live in southern Alabama, so I hear you on the hot, hot weather! Great finds this week, especially the little tea light holder.
WOWOWOWOWOW! You got a birdcage for 50 cents! Whooo hoooo for you!
You got lotsa good stuff. And it's bad hot here too.
Wow ...... I'm really jealous of your birdcage and the shelves! I looked for those all over the place but couldn't find any cheap enough!
I love your bird cage, and that shelf is an absolute steal.
Hi Chanda,
This is my first visit to your blog via Thrifty Treasures. Well you got some really great stuff. I love birdhouses and own three. No birds just the houses! I like your idea of putting succulents in the little white containers, very trendy and chic. I imagine your kids had a blast on the funky rollercoaster car; it looks like a great ride. Cathy
Love the tea light holder and the idea of succulents in the white pots :)

What fabulous finds! I particularly love the birdhouse, the rachk and the library card holder!
Thanks for sharing!

Great buy on that Skitter. That costs $75 here at an outlet mall!
Great finds! I especially love the library card holder.
Rollercoaster car looks life fun; I'd love a ride on it! You got a lot of great deals; nicely done!
That would make a cute accent piece outside by the pool or in the mudroom/hall, etc. And great little white pots for hens and chicks! Sue
Looks like you found some great buys
The white dishes will look beautiful with succulents!
Love the shelf too. What a deal at $10!
Don't forget if you can't find white dishes you like you can always spray paint them (unless you are wanting to eat off of them). :)
I enjoyed reading about YOU in your last post. I also work part-time and enjoy it (most days). Sounds like you've found something that fits you great and that's awesome!
Love the little white jars/vases. And the library card holder is such fun! Darling bird cage! Linda
