Thrift and Yard Sale Finds

On July 31st, I found some great deals when my sister and I went to Grass Valley to visit a friend, and managed to hit some of the thrift shops on their half-price day! We hit an estate sale before we left town, and I found these:And a couple of the items in this picture:
This Ransburg set is, of course, missing the grease jar lid, but I was still tickled to find it!
And these orange juice glasses were half price:

I found some pretty great stuff that day. We also were so happy to just barely make it into Clocksmith Antiques right before they closed, and we got to meet Karla and Kristi from Polka Dot Rose! They even gave us sweet little gift bags - how nice was that? They are the very first fellow bloggers I have met, and we were all very happy to have had the opportunity to say hello! It was such a pleasure, ladies!
