<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marko, post: 393637, member: 210&quot;]I was tripping over goodies this past weekend....here are my most favorites.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have been looking for a vintage pink clothes hamper (I have an older one from teh 80s now), and I finally found it- this is listed on ebay in blue for $100.&nbsp; Mine was $10, from a four-story house packed with oldies.&nbsp; The top is pearlized lucite.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]136690[/ATTACH] </p><p>From the same house (that had loads of jewelry, I got there an hour after it started on Friday and half the stuff in the entire house was already gone) come these vintage circa 1960s 100% cotton percale sheets, a dollar each.&nbsp; I search for the older sheets because they are cool and crisp.&nbsp; These actually crinkle when you hold them they are so divine.&nbsp; From W. T. Grant, USA made.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]136691[/ATTACH] </p><p>From the same material, these embroidered pillowcases were $3 a pair.&nbsp; Everything washed up great with Oxyclean and a bit of bleach.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]136692[/ATTACH] </p><p>The house was amazing.&nbsp; I will have to post a few good jewelry finds from the first day.... the jewelry was separated into lots of $14 each, $8 each, $4 each, and $1 each.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>After the sale on Friday (I went both days), I hit a few thrifts.&nbsp; I almost fell over when I saw this bracelet for $8 in a thrift shop.&nbsp; The lady said she looped it and it wasn&#039;t sterling, only made in Mexico.&nbsp; I did loupe it right there and agreed with her, but didn&#039;t tell her it was marked &quot;terlin&quot; because part of the sterling rubbed off, and also marked Lido.&nbsp; 1940s Taxco.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]136694[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]136695[/ATTACH] </p><p>The lady told me she does pricing for another thrifts shop, a new one on my list, so I drove over there and picked this up for $12.&nbsp; Modernist? rock crystal sterling ring.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]136698[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]136699[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I have to photograph more finds from the two days.... there was some gold sold as costume in a few places and some great costume pieces.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
