I mentioned in my last post what fun I had hitting a few church yard sales last Saturday. I was out for about two hours and came home with some really cool finds.
Like these two antique Bibles
They are really small and oh so sweet!
Ten cents each
Who let’s this stuff go ?
This lovely silver tray
For $3
Love these handles!
And another pair of silver platters
I have been collecting these for a while now to use as chargers. With the addition of these I now have eight and no two are alike.
$1
For both!
Now the absolute deal of the day
Yep. An antique kitchen scale, in blue
no less.
$3
No joke!
One last thing and it’s a BIG one
This buffet came with two beautiful surprises!
And they actually work!
So last night around 9 I got a color on my crazy little head and I managed to actually pull it off!
I hope to show you the final result later in the week.
I will tell you this:
I made the color out of these
And it’s heavily distressed.
Heavily for me anyway.
Have a great Thursday!

Great finds! Are you going to just tease us with that little close up of the sideboard?! I want to see the whole piece…
Yes! I still have to sand down the top
What a great idea to use silver platters as chargers! Love the keys and I think I am in love with your color….looks like it's on the aqua side!
I cannot believe this scale was $3! I'm so jealous!! Looking forward to seeing how that piece turns out.
I am totally in love with that scale! I am amazed you got it for $3!!!!
Wow, you got so amazing finds and I can't believe the prices! The scale is amazing and I love all the silver.
Fabulous deals, I love them all. What you did with the table is amazing!

Who in the heck sells that scale for $3?? Great find! Looks like you hit the jackpot at those sales. I can't wait to see the finished sideboard. Already loving the color!
I know! The side board is done any I love it! I did a blog post about it last week.
Please let me know what think???
Somehow I had missed that! LOOKS AWESOME! I absolutely LOVE it! I love all of the details, and the color is amazing. I also like how you used the dark wax instead of stain. Perfect!
That scale was a STEAL! Thanks for sharing at Talented Tuesday!
