Our first dig! I don’t know if we can top this one, but we will be keeping a lookout. <strong><span style="color: blue;">Too Much Fun</span><span style="color: blue;">!</span></strong><br /><br />We’ve enjoyed going to consignment shops, thrift and antique stores for some time, but this was a <strong><span style="color: blue;">totally new experience</span></strong> for us. <br /><br />As Yancey said, I’m not really into the whole idea of battling a huge crowd of folks pushing and pulling each other for cheap junk -- I would rather have a root canal -- but this was actually pretty great, at least on day 2, Saturday. Not too many people, and those there were happy and well mannered and chatty.<br /><br />The cool thing about this estate sale was it was in the lady’s home, which was great, because you could <strong><span style="color: blue;">see the style and whole Mid-Century story clearly</span></strong> – so much more than just a single disembodied lamp in a consignment shop.<br /><br />It was like uncovering a long lost golden, leopard skin covered, kitchy civilization! Like stepping back into a <strong><span style="color: blue;">1950’s Bling Time Capsule -</span></strong><strong><span style="color: blue;">Mid-Century archeology!</span></strong> <br /><br />Everything was tagged with a price, and there was no auction, so you could just walk around and shop. Day one was full price, day two 25% off, day three 50% off.<br /><br />I thought I would share some pictures from the estate sale web site for your viewing pleasure. It was definitely<span style="color: black;"> a treasure hunt!</span> If you haven’t shopped one of these sales, I highly recommend it – even if you leave your checkbook at home. <br /><br />Hope you enjoy! <br /><br />Shine on! <em><span style="color: blue;"><strong>Braxton </strong></span></em><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
