Boy I feel lucky today! I had no plans to junk or garage sale , only to get our truck washed from the road war of last weekends big trip to Alameda and to get organized and start cooking for tomorrows Easter celebration, all the kids are coming home! on my way to the car wash I noticed an estate sale sign and my curiosity got the best of me, it was already 11:30 so I figured all the good stuff would be gone, but I thought oh well.......it'll only take a few minutes to walk through. I promised the hubs I would be right back to help with the painting of the new master-bath remodel, this project has already taken forever so I didn't want to hold it up any further, I miss my bathroom! I walked around and I was right most of the "good" stuff was already gone, then I rounded the corner to this small bathroom and stacked up inside were 5 rose pictures in absolute mint vintage condition, the frames are equally beautiful, I guessed someone might be hiding them and going to come back later.....you snooze you lose! I of course snatched them up along with a couple of cute Paris prints and that darling lampshade with the pale pink ruffle, there was also a great old frame.......lucky.lucky.lucky....
Those are wonderful. You are lucky!! Now will you sell them or do you have a special place in mind for them?
