Good Monday! I had quite the weekend with my kitchen project. Putting up shelves led to painting the kitchen, which led to cleaning the kitchen cabinets and all the doors/frames/molding (thank you to whomever invented Mr. Clean sponges), which has led to a purge of all things not needed. Which, in my case, is a lot. Oh, what to do with the ceramics from art classes through the years? 
No, really – what to do?
I did manage to get out on Saturday to a garage sale and estate sale in my neighborhood. My daughter and I were driving by the garage sale doing the whole “quick drive-by scan” and it looked pretty dismal. I was about to keep driving but as we were actually there already, we decided to quickly stop and take a look. There was the typical junk but as I approached the top of the driveway, right next to the garage door, was this sweet little table. 
With fantastic detail…
I asked “How much?” and the kind woman said, “Oh, it’s part of a set that’s upstairs. It was my husband’s grandmother’s bedroom set from the 1930’s. Do you want to see the rest?” Um…yeah! So, upstairs we trooped and there was a matching, gorgeous vanity/desk…
A hanging mirror… 
As well as a very large dresser. Sorry for the bad pic but you can see the size and detail…
Just look at the sweet detail on the top drawer!
I bought the lot! What was almost a drive-by turned into a beautiful score! Seek and ye shall find!
We then went down the street to the “Estate Sale” which turned out to be a glorified garage sale. Fine by me, I already had a great day!

Oh wow! My jaw is still dropping! To find just one of those pieces would have been a score! You hit the jackpot! 🙂 Well done!
What a score! I love when good things are found a yard sales. Happy days for you!
Love your new photo! Looks like you really look!
That vanity/desk. It’s going to be dynamite when you get finished with it.
Not so sure that is a good thing, LOL!
Now THAT is a beautiful set!!! Can’t wait to see what you make of it! All those little pottery things the kids bring home? I have a stash of them in a buffet drawer in my kitcehn! LOL!! 😉 Can’t ever get rid of them.
Thanks, Tina Marie! I have put the artwork away in a safe box. I can never get rid of it, either!
WOW….what a beautiful find….love, love the furniture…
Oh my goodness, I cannot believe your find! Amazing detail on the furniture, can’t wait to see what you do with it.
