Woods and Whites.

Part three of my rummage sale haul has to do with the above. Yep. You called it, wood and white items. Whenever I am out pickin, my eyes are always drawn to woods and whites. My whole house is basically covered in woods and whites, and now I am slowly adding pieces to bring more warm & cozy vibes. See the prices I paid for the items below!

Above, I bought corbels (75 cents a piece); Vase (10 cents); White spools of thread (all $3.00); Two crocks (all $4.00); And a ceiling medallion (25 cents).
I’ve been on the hunt for old, vintage hymnals. I FOUND some!!!! I paid thirty cents for all three of these beautiful, old beauties….I still cannot get over the prices of this sale.
Landed this old, patina rocking chair for $7.00.
The wooden fruit baskets were ten cents per stack; It was $2.00 for a bag of old clothespins; Fifty cents for the two brushes; and 25 cents for the frame.

One thing that I didn’t share was that I landed a lot of this on the first day of the sale, where I spent nearly two hours sorting through LOTS of items. The key to going to rummage sales is prepping your mind and going in with the mindset to not get overwhelmed, even in the midst of the chaos. It was super chaotic, but whenever I felt overwhelmed I walked to another room to “take a breather”.

I went back the second day of the sale, to finish picking up all of the ironstone dishes that I had purchased, and I ended up looking around and found some more goodies. Then, I went back the NEXT day (the last day of the sale)..haha I know. Insane. But the last day of the sale was “fit everything possible into a bag, for a whopping $3.00 a bag” day. It was seriously just fun. Fun looking. Fun sorting. Fun digging.

Go with a purpose. What would you look for? Specific colors? Specific pieces? Specific themes? Whatever it is, go with it in mind, and choose to focus on that!

I LOOOVE seeing what people find, what they paid for the item, and where they purchased it. Do you have any recent finds? Share any of your pickin’ finds with me on Instagram, I would absolutely love to see them! Tag me @thisoldbrickhouse

Thanks for reading buddies!
