A Thrifty Adventure for Vintage Finds!

I was recently made aware of a large estate sale being held in my hometown this week, which promised to have all sorts of vintage treasures and antiques, so I took the day off and set out to find some great deals, and I was not disappointed!

At the estate sale, I was lucky enough to nab a beautiful antique gold sitting chair that now looks perfect in my living room, a beautiful perfect-condition 3-tiered candy dish which is now being used as a jewelry holder, two gorgeous vintage dresses, two beautiful and perfect-condition vintage pearl necklaces, a lovely set of vintage gold and pearl earrings, a cute vintage one-piece swimsuit, and a vintage toggle bracelet.

Since I was in the bargain-hunting mode and had the rest of the day to use, I set out to peruse the local antique stores in hopes of finding some more treasures. At one of my favorite spots, the Greeneville Antique Market, I picked up two gorgeous vintage cloche hats, a lovely vintage brooch, some beautiful vintage earrings, and a perfect-condition vintage handbag.
