Yard Sale Finds... Dolls and Dogs

Hello vintage lovers!! This is a yard sale finds post!! This weekend I came across these super sweet dolls and rubber dog at a yard sale I came across. I could not leave them there. I used to collect vintage dolls years ago and these brought me back to that time. These are unmarked but still very pretty for their age. The bigger doll was $2, small girl was $1 and the pink squeak dog was .25!

Christmas in July... Angel girls...

Hello vintage lovers!! It is another installment of Christmas in July!! Over the weekend at a yard sale and the goodwill I found me a couple of angel girls and a little mandolin playing boy.

An Estate Sale Find... Ideal Petite Princess Pamphlets

Hello vintage lovers!! This is another installment of the infamous $18 estate sale I went to not that long ago. We are going to be looking at the pamphlets that came with the Ideal Petite Princess doll house furniture line. I got 6 of these with the doll house furniture I purchased and thought it would be fun to take a look at. They are all the same except 2 are black and white and the other 4 are in color. This is what all the little girls would look through to see what they needed to complete their house. 

An Estate Sale Find.... Ideal Petite Princess doll house furniture

Hello vintage lovers!! This is another installment of my infamous $18 estate sale haul I went to not that long ago. We are going to be looking at the ideal petite princess doll house furniture set. These items are too adorable, they are plastic and satin of course they do show some age, especially the couch. There are some really cool pieces in this lot. Just look at that cool green couch and the pink chaise lounge and head board on the bed. This is a real depiction of what it looked like in the 60s. The gong is really amazing to me, was that a thing in the 60s? Like an oriental theme or something? The most amazing thing to me is the books with book ends, that baffles me how they kept up with that stuff for all those years. 

An Estate Sale Find..... Paper dolls

Hello vintage lovers!! This is another installment of the infamous $18 estate sale I attended not that long ago. We will be looking at the different sets of paper dolls I picked up. I loved paper dolls when I was little, of course mine was strawberry shortcake and barbie and the rockers but still the same concept. These books have the most amazing graphics in them. Not all the piece are there in each book but they are still fun to look through and would be good for crafting. So vintage I love it!! 

An Estate Sale Find..... Japan Child's Tea Set

Hello vintage lovers!! This is another installment of my finds from the infamous $18 estate sale I went to this weekend. Guess I'm starting a child's tea set collection? As you know I already own a made in Japan child tea set I found at goodwill a month or so back. I could not help it this set was so cute and it had all of the pieces (one plate is broken but glued). Not sure what I will do with them yet but had to have it. 

In this set I got the tea pot, sugar bowl, creamer, set of salt and pepper shakers (they even have corks), platter, serving bowl with lid, 6 dinner plates, 6 saucers, 6 cups and red plastic utensils for 6. It is white with a black, red and silver design. I believe it is from the 60s. Perfect to add to my new collection or whatever I decide to do with it. 

An Estate Sale Find.... Hazel Atlas Milk Glass Strawberry Jar

Hello vintage lovers!! This is another installment of my infamous $18 estate sale I went to not that long ago. This is one of the items on my vintage thrifting wish list. It is a hazel atlas milk glass strawberry jam jar. I have wanted one of these for a while I found it in the house in the very bottom of a big box. I wanted to do a happy dance but thought that might seem weird to the other people in the room. Or would it?
