Back on the Horse: What I found, July 7th

After taking a few weeks off to get a handle on some excess inventory, it was time to get back on the horse and visit a few sales this weekend.  I am trying trying trying to go for quality over quantity moving forward.  That sounds simple enough but is hard for me, as I tend to grab large piles to get large discounts.  These are the things I brought home.

I found 2 Red phones- from 2 different sales.   
Red Rotary Telephone
Red Princess Telephone

This large yellow Descoware pot makes me want to learn how to make soup!
Large- either 5 quart or 6 quart Descoware. 

 I will never not buy a globe- especially if it lights up and has an awesome plastic stand!
1980 Scan-globe

I love the color of this canister!
It's marked on the bottom USA and with another mark I can't identify.  

So there you have it.  Instead of bringing home a carload, I just grabbed a few things.   In an effort to beat the summer sales slump and get some of the older goods moved out both shops are on sale for the entire month of July.  See the details, HERE.


Love learning about what others "find?"

    The colour on the canister is quite neat & that's a pretty cool globe.

      The globe is fantastic...If I didn't already have about 4 or 5, I'd be keeping it. :)

    Nice finds! I agree in theory on the "quality over quantity" thing, but I too have difficulty putting it into practice. My favorites are the princess phone and the globe--which is one of the coolest I've seen!

      It sounds so simple right- only bring home the best of the best. ;)

      Thanks! I love the color too- I think it would be so fun in a bathroom full of cotton ball. A lot of cotton balls. :)
