Raise your hand if you would stand outside for an hour outside someone's house that you don't know, on a cold Minnesota day, with the temperature hovering around 10 degrees? All for an estate sale that you have no idea if there is anything good.
The person I stood with for that hour is my estate sale partner-in-crime Jennifer Murphy who made it much more tolerable by recounting her recent trip to Rome and other delights. Still sound crazy? These were some of my treasures. Totally worth it!

Hope you have a fantastic weekend.
i live for the perfect sale! the thrill of the hunt!
ReplyDeleteI've never been to an estate sale, but I think it would be worth the fun! I love the white letters. You'll have fun with those.
ReplyDeleteMy hand is raised!!!!
ReplyDeleteNothing better than braving the MN cold, in line with others, crazy enough to do the same!!
Reminds me waiting for the Cities 97 Sampler every year.
Painfully Cold FUN!!!
Looks like you got some treasures that's for sure.
Looks like a lot of fun schtuff! ;D
ReplyDeleteB
sounds fun to me! of course I would have a cup of coffee to warm me up. Looks like it was a successful day though, you got some great stuff!
ReplyDeleteOh oh oh....that must have been worth the frost bites. Wish I could have been there...I LOVE scrabble tiles. I miss the cold weather since I was born in Sweden and now live in California...I need to freeze and hibernate in the winter. :)
ReplyDeleteI went to an auction and about froze my butt off, so I understand! It was worth it though.... not as much as your estate sale. Those are great finds!
ReplyDeleteWorth Every Second You Stood In Line...I am jealous!
ReplyDeleteSonya:)
Ohhhhhhhhh. I LOVE the New Year's hats. That's my birthday and it's my most recent obsession of collectible. If you ever decide you need to relieve yourself of one or two, I'd be happy to take them off your hands. For a price, of course.
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous of the estate sales you have around your neck of the woods!
ReplyDeletejust hanging with jennifer murphy would make it all worth while if you ask me! but you did find some sweet things!
ReplyDeletevivian
Hovering around 10 degrees? Oh my gosh! But you persevered and found some great treasures.
ReplyDeleteI just noticed you're participating in the Easter Egg swap. I am, too. Should be fun!
Keep warm and enjoy those treasures.
I would have been shivering right next to you!!!
ReplyDeleteHmmmm....Kari.....I think the former owner of all of these treasures must have been a kindred spirit of yours!
ReplyDeleteMaybe she would also have been a "partner in crime". ;-)
Wonderful finds!
Diane
Totally Worth it! I'm always on the prowl for those white letters! I'd have stood out there with you all day! (Seriously- so much fun to be with the two of you!?)
ReplyDeleteoh that was totally worth it! what fun!
ReplyDeleteOhhhhhh those hats...and those little white letters...
ReplyDelete*sigh*

Rising hand over here! I think you have to really love it to do that in MN weather...but of course, we do! You got some fun treasures for your trouble--yeah!
ReplyDeleteSmiles, Karen
It looks like it was worth it for sure. It must be so much fun, I have never been to an estate sale before.
ReplyDeleteKaren
I'm weeping.
ReplyDeleteYou have the best estate sales. I never find the stuff you find in my neck of the wood in Tx.
ReplyDeleteWow it sure was worth it. So many fabulous goodies!!
ReplyDeleteAlison
Great finds, love the white letters.
ReplyDeleteI'll trade you, you can have some of our heat if we can have some of your cold.
Magnificent purchases! I would have been right there with you freezing in the cold! Holley B.
ReplyDeleteoh my...... it was totally worth it! LOVE all the letters and scrabble pieces! xo
ReplyDeleteLooks as though you made good on the wait! I hope there was some hot coffee or cappucino in there somewhere. I'm chilly just thinking about it! Love the goodies though!
ReplyDeleteI am sooo jealous! I used to live in Missouri and attend estate sales all the time. They don't have too many on my side of Michigan. Very cute canister, by the way!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Totally worth it, I can see :)
ReplyDeleteYou really had to much fun! I love sales, I can hardly wait for Spring Yard sales. I love all the colors, you do show things so sweetly. Hugs, Mary
ReplyDeletewhat exciting things to discover at an estate sale - I think I would have a heart attack if I found any of those treasures at a sale!
