the end of yard sale season


As yard sale/flea market season draws to a close, I am happy to have found a few end of season bargains. This enamelware container is perfect for storing baking soda for homemade cleaning recipes...

{I will never go back to harsh chemical cleansers...Rhonda has a great article with many good recipes for homemade ones, in case you are interested.}

I couldn't resist this little drying rack for a quarter...

...or these linens which I found at the flea market...

Maybe some of these will become tea cozies {now that Fall is in the air I think we will need a few for the shop}. All sewing projects have been sadly neglected of late, so I'm looking forward to 'dusting off' the sewing machine as the days get cooler.
