Smalltown City-Wide Garage Sales 5.20.2017

My husband and I drove away on a foggy, cold Saturday morning to attend a very small neighboring town's citywide garage sales.  They were supposed to have about 16, but the rain kept a few people from opening up.  Nevertheless, we managed to get a few treasures:

Hard plastic santa light - works!
He is just a symbol of the boxes of vintage Christmas
that I bought that day

I do like majolica.  But I don't care for this dog plate
That must be why I keep finding them,
this will be the third of this pattern that I have sold.
Bought for $1, sold for $35.

It must have been a fish themed day.
Starting with these guys.

Victorian Aquarium Stand.

It is really beautiful.
Going on ebay.
Purchased for $50, sold for $90.

  1. That happened to us on the last city wide garage sale we went to. Unfortunately, we had to drive about 1 1/2 hours to get there. But, it worked out okay. We went on down to Metairie, La. and shopped.

    Like the finds you got. I don't think I've seen those fishing lure ornaments before.
