A Few Doors Down

The other day, I walked a few doors down to a yard sale down the street. It wasn't terribly interesting, mostly newer holiday decorations and assorted stuff like that. But I did find a couple of things I wanted. Doilies are always nice, and I didn't have any cookie stamps like these two pretty examples:
These are pretty boring I know, but I got an entire bag of these little jewelry boxes. They come in handy for me fairly often, and even at Dollar Tree you have to pay $1.00 for three. I even got a few little velvet boxes, and all of them for four bits:

A letter holder - nothing fancy, just sturdy and serviceable, which is all a letter holder really needs to be:

I found a Christmas tin, and a great little 1935 cook booklet:

"Successful Baking" has nice illustrations inside:

But this was my favorite find:

Another Peter Pauper Press Book for my collection! This is the first one I have ever found with it's original gift box. It was in a box with some other less interesting books, most of which had mildew damage. I love the illustrations found inside these special little books:

I didn't have much money with me anyway - only a few dollars, and the one little book was worth more than that to me.
Yippee!
