Junk Shopping Day !!!!!!

17 years ago

I took the plunge and went shopping today. Two resale's and a Goodwill.

It was Grab Box Day at one place!!!!! $3.00. I could hardly wait until I could get it home and see if I got lucky.

    There was a LOT of stuff in that box! I like the little gal with the yellow flowers, looks like she's a spoon holder. And the smallest one next to her in the last picture. Almost looks like a clothespin doll, cute. Have fun!

    garden2garden, Yes that is a clothespin doll with a ribbon to hang her up. And that is indeed a spoon holder. Wonder how she would look broken into pieces and then mosaiced into something?

    Leveta, That little mouse is plastic stained "glass".

    The colored baskets could hold smaller pots of flowers at Easter maybe.

    I've got a little neighbor girl who is 10. I taught her how to make totems. I will probably call her in to pick out what she wants. She has started her own business.*grin*!!!

    I will use the blue vase pieces added to what I already have and make a blue bird feeder or bath.

    Lucky you. I wish they would have those boxes in my area.

  • 17 years ago

    I can't believe all that stuff in one box for $3!!! Sooo many neat things.. We need follow up photos.

    I have never gotten a grab box before. They were having a house cleaning it appeared. I kind of wish I would have bought all of them. They had 6 but I couldn't lift some of them. If I get to use 2 or 3 pieces it is worth my $3.00. There was an ancient bag of potpouri (sp?) I put it in my compost.

    What a GREAT Grab box!!! I love the lil guy in the garbage can and the flowers peeking out of a pot in the 1st pic.

  • 17 years ago

    What an awesome haul! You lucky girl! I love that swan planter and the CD holder (or whatever the blue wooden thing is). Our thrift stores don't offer grab boxes like that, I sure wish they did!

    SusieSunhine, right about now I'm tempted to say let's pack our bags and head to Texas! It is so freakin' cold here! Subzero temperatures with windchills of -20+ degrees. Brrrrrrrrrrr!

    Oh, I think the blue wood holder with tulips should hold some greenery for 1 of the houses. it looks like a good size for that! Great haul!! Jan
