Friday started off great! I went to a Sales by Helen in Upper Darby where I picked up a beautiful set of China that completed a set I already owned. On my way home, I found a neighborhood yard sale off the corner of routes 926 & 52. Shortly after stopping, a mahogany end table caught my eye for my daughter's room.
Saturday was extremly rainy and cold all day. Connie and I headed out anyway to see what we could find. However, the day was packed with yardsales and we made out like bandits. Burried deep in a box, I found a antique canope cover that took over an hour to untangle, but the end result was worth it. The piece fits the top of my bed perfectly! Other finds included occupied china pieces, old shutters, and of course, a dog bed for the new puppy. On the way home, I happened to see a 1950s Goodyear Marathon peddle bike for free. I quickly snatched up the item in order to give it to my brother who collects antique peddle bikes. The day was a complete success and only spent 15 bucks! Talk about the bargains!
Happy Dumpster Diving
