<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marko, post: 252411, member: 210&quot;]Nice, Cxgirl.&nbsp; I have to google EAPG glass.&nbsp; If they wrote a book called Glassware for Dummies, I&#039;d be first in line to buy it. </p><p><br /></p><p>I couldn&#039;t sleep today, so I was out of the door by 6:30 a.m.&nbsp; The weather was threatening storms, but there was an advertised yard sale a few mile from me I wanted to attend.... they weren&#039;t set up, so I drove to a church sale.&nbsp; I was sitting in the parking lot waiting for everybody to show up, and unbeknownst to me, they were having the sale outside and cancelled due to weather.&nbsp; I went to a yard sale four blocks away, and somebody had just beat me to grandmom&#039;s jewelry boxes.&nbsp; A few things remained, not much.</p><p><br /></p><p>So now it is 8 a.m. and I head back to the yard sale I wanted to go to.&nbsp; Unbelievable.&nbsp; Most of the stuff was 10 cents to 50 cents.&nbsp; I found a table with jewelry and it was all 10 cents.&nbsp; So I grabbed a bowl and went to it.&nbsp; Three families with multiple members were still unloading...... the furniture was $5 to $10. Brad would&#039;ve been in heaven.&nbsp; I saw a bench there for $5 that goes for $150 in our antique shops.... but furniture is not my forte.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>So between the two yard sales, here are some of my favorite finds.</p><p><br /></p><p>First, taille d&#039;epergne (I know I am spelling it wrong.)&nbsp; Note how the set is mismatched, but I believe it was made that way because all the parts match in size.&nbsp; [ATTACH=full]77935[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>This necklace was missed at the first yard sale because it was hidden in a box with a small bottom drawer.&nbsp; The jewelry there was 10 cents to a quarter.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]77936[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>The rest is from the second yard sale.&nbsp; This is broken, but where it is broken is knotted and I plan to join the ends by stitching it with vintage thread.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]77937[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]77938[/ATTACH] </p><p>And this was some of the gold, sterling, and better costume.... the yellow gold is 14k.&nbsp; The strawberries are Weiss, missing two rhinestones at the bottom.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know if the pansies are sterling, it is a brooch/pendant piece.&nbsp; The Celtic harp is stainless?&nbsp;&nbsp; The dummy also grabbed some glassware this week, photos later.&nbsp; [ATTACH=full]77942[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
