the best pgh has to offer...

well i need to tell you all a secret.
pittsburgh, pa is home to the most amazing vintage/antique things.
i have tried other places but pgh has it.
it has all items and the prices are UNBEATABLE!

i stopped at four on saturday and one on sunday.
we will start with sunday bc well it's today.

below you you will see two perfect condition pieces of fiesta ware.
bought from an estate sale for wait for it.......$10!!!
i about flipped. these babies look great with my collection.
my mom wanted me to get china for my wedding but lets be real
i am not the china kinda gal. so fiesta had my name all over it and well
my collection needs some new pieces.:)


i have been searching for these boxes for months.
i am so excited to have found two of them for a steal..
$5 each! i am making the coolest shelving unit and these babies complete it!


so i love green. any shade of green really and the table below was perfect.
i only have one giant foldable table. so this little card table was just right for us.
we are big game players in our house so this will get alot of use!



so just fyi this is only a few of the things i got.
i got my great friend caroline a knife block.
i got my wonderful friend lisa a beautiful glass pitcher.
i got three in perfect shape dresses for $10!
[i am dying to wear them]
i also found 4 things of yard.[two green & two teal] for $2

my working wish list...

so i have been making a wish list.
i have gone to many estate sales, yard sales and moving sales looking for a 
cabinet like the one below.
i want something not super fancy and not wide.
the one below would look coolio in my kitchen.

this is the number one book on my list.
the recipes are amazing and i love the southern goodness.

i am also hoping to soonish find a great camping lantern.
similar to the one in the link above.
i don't have any reason to like it other than it matches our tent.
also coleman stuff is about middle of the line which i like.:)

we also have a gaping hole in our air mattress.
i'd like an air mattress that allows for camping and in home use.
i also am always collecting more vintage bright colored pyrex!

i think this weekend i am hitting estate sales HARD!
