Weekend before last, I stopped by an estate sale. When I stop now days, I usually go straight to the area where the jewelry and/or small trinkets, etc., that can be repurposed is displayed. Not a lot to choose from, but did get these pieces. I got the red bead necklace to take apart and repurpose the beads. Got it home and found the little Monet metal tag and did a little research. They are considered vintage and on ebay from buy it now $4.95 and up - the highest I saw was $24.50 - I paid $1.50. May leave it intact and add something with it. Got the other necklace (no markings) for parts for $3.
Locket - $1.50.

Not sure where I am going with this just yet - I have a heavy chain it may be going on. May add more trinkets/charms, etc..
Playing around with photobucket.
80% chance of rain and high of only 52 tomorrow, so sounds like a good day to address Christmas cards, work on a piece of jewelry and any other hard job like that. :D
Someone else has an opinion about the up coming weather forecast. :-D Wonder which one of her older siblings taught her to stick her tongue out!?!? :D
ETA: Photo removed.

You always seem to find the greatest pieces. Love the picture of your newest grand. She is a doll ;o)
Sounds like a good day to play in the house. I really like your jewelry finds.
Hi Glenda! I'm so glad to see the baby!!! SOOOO CUTE! You picked up some good stuff! Can't wait to see what you do with them! God Bless! Lauralu
Oh, that baby is precious!!! I love her headband. I hope I get the pleasure of a granddaughter one day, though I am surely enjoying the boys.
Awww, she is such a little cutie! Great buys on the jewelry, Glenda. I can't wait to see what you do with them. I took out the leopard rug. It was pretty annoying cause it kept getting out of place when you step on it, lol. Thanks for your honest opinion....Christine
Hi Glenda!
Thanks for stopping by my blog the other day! I agree that wild truffles are an "aquired taste" and not for everyone as they are kind of earthy in flavor.
I like your jewelry finds -- I love lockets.
Your little sweetie is so cute!
You did good and I really love the charms. I've just recently started a charm bracelet after wanting one for years. I've got to find someone to put it together for me. Hugs
What a cutie pie! They grow up fast!
Why didn't they have those cute hair things when my daughter was little? It looks as if you found some prettie! I think the domino piece would be great hanging on a purse.
Glenda,
Love your jewelry finds! I love vintage jewelry and I look for it myself.
Baby is just precious!
Hugs,
Donna
She's so cute Glenda!
And getting so big too. That pic is a keeper!
And I love your bracelet/locket so neat!
Hugs,
Cindy

Cute baby! I love that dice piece. And all the jewelry you've redone on the sidebar. Cute stuff.
Wow! Great treasures here...including the little two-month-old one here at the end. So PRECIOUS!! : )
You find some great things at those estate sales! The pearl and gold chain actually looks very in style right now.
Love that face!
Glad you dropped by. Since I'm starting a new life I figured I should start a new blog. :-)

What a cutie pie! You got some great finds.
Great jewelry finds ... love the vintage charms. I saw another blogger added vintage finds to her charm bracelet ... really neat. And the last picture of the cute baby is wonderful! Love the tongue sticking out!
Aww you must be a pround gramma! That key chain is really neat. Reminds me of someone who loved to play games.~Ames
