Yard Sale Finds- April

Yard sale season has started!  On a rainy day last weekend, my mom & I went to one that was a fundraiser for a local wildlife sanctuary.  We had never been to this one before, and were worried it would be cancelled due to the rain.  But we headed over anyway, and we're SO happy we did- we found a bunch of great items!

Here are my finds...

This canister is going over on our coffee nook in the kitchen to hold packets of hot cocoa.



I loved the blue & yellow in the feathers of this chicken.

More fun decorating above the stove!


Next I found this fancy little cup that's on the left of the photo... It matches my canister set (bought years ago at a flea market in NYC).

For just 25 cents, I couldn't leave it behind!


The baskets were also just 25 cents each... I'm usually not big on baskets, but found these two that I think will come in handy.
This oval basket struck me as the perfect size for putting out
utensils at a BBQ or picnic.

This basket is hand-made.
It can hang on the doorknob or a wall hook.

For the outside, I saw these little garden markers.  
Sure, I could have made these myself... but for 10 cents, now I don't have to!  

Then there's the holiday decor... Halloween this time.  This pumpkin is made of metal and has a heavy duty hinged stand attached to the back.  It's about 20 inches tall and will be fun for decorating outside next October.


The next two finds I think I'm going to use in the master closet...
I've been on the hunt for pretty hooks, and these will fit right in.


I spent a total of $15, and had a fantastic time!
