Red, White and Blue Vintage Finds
It all started out as a trip to the bank but little did I know the garage sale gods were aligning the stars in my favor. I've been on a self-imposed, buy nothing but work with all the crap vintage treasures you've bought for the past several months, hiatus. Needless to say, I hit two garage sales this morning where the prices were cheap and the goods were great. I promise I was just on my way to the bank.
Red child's folding chair...it's absolutely the perfect shade of chippy red and is super heavy. I think it might be cast iron. Some junk lovin' patriot will flip for it when they see it in my Etsy shop.
Creamy white chalkware bookends...wouldn't you have taken these two darling kids home? I mean, really?!? Some shabby chic, chalkware collector will love those pie faces.
The blue Pièce de résistance...this guy is gonna live with me for a while because I am in love with his perfect shade of blue, his square nails and remnants of a brass lock and his perfectly sculpted domed top. It's getting warm in here. That's all I got to say about that.
I purchased this perfect blue man at Gold'n Country Gifts. You simply must check out their store if you are ever in the area. In fact, let me know when you're coming and I'll go with you and we'll do lunch.

Which would you choose? The red, white or the blue?
