You would not believe the stuff I bought at just one yardsale. I spent a total of $27.00 for all of this. I was so excited when I got home and went through it again. I looked at everything and found things that were worth a lot more than I thought. This group was 1 of 6 that I had that morning. By far this was the best group of things. One box was full of different tins for $1.00 for the whole box and the other big box was full of different type of decorative interior pots. That box was also $1.00. What a bargain.
My youngest daughter made this. It was one of the cutest wreaths I have seen for a sewing room. She had made it for her boyfriends mom. His mom has a sewing room and collects anything that has to do with sewing. She was excited to get it because that was her first sewing wreath to add to her room.
I wasn't sure if something needed to be added to this one. I kinda like it because it's so simple. The skeleton was a little creepy but I guess that was the point of it. I love the spider, it looks so real in person. Halloween is like my second favorite holiday to decorate for.
This witches broom sold not too long after I placed it in my booth. I also made a scarecrow broom that sold. Can't wait to make more of these. I went to a yardsale a couple a days ago and they had several brooms for 25cents. I bought them all.
Here is another wreath I made recently. A wreath with frame normally run about $10.00 for one like this. I have some request on this type. It looks really good even with different colored frames.
Homemade wreath
I made this wreath. I love making wreaths and selling them. This type of wreath is $20.00. I can't wait to start making Christmas wreaths. I am going to attempt an all Christmas ball wreath. Really not a sure how thats going to turn out. Guess you will have to wait and see.
I made this little dishwasher magnet for my daughter. It was not very easy to make but turned out really cute. It looks cute in her kitchen. I think I will make somemore using different colors.
