Saturday Yardsale Finds

My sister, sister-in-law, myself, and my 2 month old baby girl went yardsaling today. (I have to bring her as she's pretty much attatched to me for food!) We had a great day. I found 4 things for gifts that I can't post in case the receiver reads this post. Here are the things I found for myself.

This is a piece of Louisville Stoneware. It's a little pitcher with the recipe for a mint julep. Totally Kentucky chic! I'm sure this thing is worth about $50 new. I paid $10. Steep for a yardsale, but I love it!




I found this adorable MA Hadley Pottery lucheon size plate with an adorable pig on it. MA Hadley Pottery is another Louisville local pottery company. I'm sure it's worth at least $20, if not more. I paid $0.75! So country chic!


It must be a pottery day! I found this great piece to hold my cooking utensils. (Ignore the mess in the kitchen, please!) It's much better than the one decorated with chickens that I'd been using since we've been married-8 years! It's pretty simple, but that's what I like about it.


My last find of the day was this electric kitchen knife. I've been wanting one forever to use when I bake bread or for when I cook roasts and such in the crock pot. Now I scored this one for $3 and it's never been used! Score!



I'm pretty happy with my finds. I wish I could show you the gifts...sorry! :) Did anyone else find any special treasures this weekend?

  7. You found some great deals! I like the pitcher with the recipe on it--cute! I have a Hadley bowl, which I know nothing about, just thought it was cute. Now I know where it was made!

  8. Great pottery finds. We pass by Hadley on the way to see our daughter in Lexington. I know it is pretty expensive. I see it up here sometimes. Happy Thrifty Monday.
