Hope you all had a fab bank Holiday
We had a nice relaxing one, Everyone was at home so it was nice to
have some family time.
Our village held a May Day fair which I went with my husband in the
afternoon. Both our children have been many times so they chose to relax at home instead.
It was a shame it rained but there was still a good turnout.
And we only got a little wet....
When the weather was nice a few weeks ago I managed to pop to a local boot fair.
I can not resist a good boot sale. Can you?
You just never know what you will find and I love the haggling over the price.
These are just some of my recent finds.
First I picked up these scales with their weights.
Then I found this vase which I thought was small and cute.
A perfect size for a single flower.
And then I found another jelly mould in perfect condition.
All in all a good day and lots of fun.
Have you found anything at your local car boot sale.?
we call then garage sales here, as they are held at your home. The season is only just beginning for us, I never normally attend them.
ReplyDeleteHi Gill. We have garage sales here but they are few and far between, the boot sale is more normal held in a field.

You did well

Only a couple of bits Julie, as that boot sale is small. Waiting for another boot sale to start which is much larger

I went to one yesterday, I can't believe what some people have on their stall, so much rubbish about, but that doesn't deter us, you never know one day we might find that rare minton vase x
ReplyDeleteYes I agree too much rubbish, But amongst that some treasures. Ours were not on as we had rain most of the day.

Ooh, love love love those scales - what great finds! Haven't been to a boot sale for years, I really must rectify that soon :-)

I love to go even if I come back empty handed. Gilly.

I am way too lazy to get up early enough to go to car boot sales!
ReplyDeletexxx
I know what you mean Lyn. I am only up early because of the dogs. They need letting out around 7ish. So no lay in for me.

The scale is great .I have a few you cant use them so many way
ReplyDeleteHave a great week

I also have one in white with all the weights. I will probably sell this one on. People love to put them in their kitchens for display. Laura. Hope you are well.

I have not been to a boot sale this year, the nearest is Carmarthen and I have been very busy. A few more weks and I will fit a visit in. You have some lovely things there.
ReplyDeleteWeather not been so good here Pam so not many on at the moment.

I enjoy going to garage sales but haven't been to one yet this spring. I did browse through some antique stores yesterday but restrained myself. I really like the scales you found. Good job!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

I wish we had more garage sales here. You were good Betsy.
