Lucky Luggage!

This is another item I found yesterday but it was in a great need of a makeover!  

Just look at this beauty!  Samsonite Streamlite in the Hawaiian Blue color!

It actually has silver sparkles throughout the color!

Now, let's take a look at it closely!

It's filthy dirty but I could see the potential in it!

(Before)

Armed with my trusty Mr. Clean Original Magic Eraser and Nev-R Dull, I got started on it.

Even the top was so dirty, it didn't have a chance at a good home!

Take a look at it now!

It's cleaned inside and out and looks awesome now!  I don't clean it to the point it looks brand new, it's not and I don't want it to look that way.  I stay away from the threads used for stitching as I don't want them to get wet, so there is some dirt still on the piping.  

Best part?  It only cost $3.15 including tax.  I don't think anyone wanted to touch the filth!  I'm sure happy I did.  LOL!

Thrifting - On the Road! Part Three!

I'm pretty sure this is some type of torture device!  Actually, it holds items like cheese, the huge roast etc. so you can then slice it.  Love the chippy look!

There's no reason whatsoever to purchase something like this next bowl.  Okay, yes there is.  First off, it was only .50 cents.

And it is perfect for my felted acorns!  I think I might need some more acorns to fill it out.

This next item is a covered bowl that was so filthy dirty, the lid wouldn't fit on it properly.  Once cleaned up, it's a beauty!

Something else I purchased for myself!  My friend found this purse and thought I had to have it.  I went back and forth, for $1.99, how could I lose?  I couldn't put it back.

It's a Longaberger!  I had no idea they even made things like this!

Yep, it's mine, all mine and I'm pleased with it!

I really wanted to get out of the luggage business, but saw this one and had to think it over.

It's a Samsonite and I fell in love with the design. 

Nope, that's not runny dirt, it's the pattern in it!

It's not squared, the bottom flares out a bit that gives it a wonderful look!

That's it for now!  Thanks for stopping by!

Last of my antique finds!

Some more of my finds on my last trip!

I love finding things in their original boxes! This one is really super!
They stack together for storage!

The colors are awesome! They are snack trays, cup goes in the center and food all around the cup, you can hold onto the bottom easily for strolling around while you snack!

I was looking for more sheet music to make beads, what I found was this box of a complete set of music lessons for a xylophone! 50 sheets, it's almost too neat to cut to pieces!

Best part, it was only $5.00 for the entire box!

Metal painted storage unit for foil, wax paper and paper towels.

This is definitely the best buy of the entire trip!

The shape is even neat!

The condition is unreal!

It's a Samsonite suitcase!

I better get selling to make some room! I go again in 2 weeks!
