The Estate of the Nation

Today my friend from Bumbershoot Designs/Supplies and I went to our first estate sale.

(These are some buttons from her supplies shop, which I refer to as "my buttons". You can not sell "my buttons"! They are mine! How many looks have there been on "my buttons"? No one can buy them! They are "my buttons"!)

(She graciously gave me some for my birthday.)

It was our very first estate sale but it was a treasure trove of stuff!
Like these,

two complete sets of vintage plastic dpns!!!

Can you believe it! Both are complete! Wow.

Some stunning vintage gloves. (Let's play "Who Wants To Look Like Audrey Hepburn?"!)

And a really pretty 40's photo that I really liked.

Last but not least,

a 1950 pattern book with fifty two patterns in it! Most of which are still really quite wearable.

It was loads of fun!
Right after we finished and were heading out I asked my friend when the next one was, "Two weeks," she said. Two weeks, I'll be ready.
