Fun Finds

Here are some more garage sale-ing pictures.

I have wanted this picture forever (OK, a really long time). It is an ABC print and each letter has a Bible verse with it. It is from Home and Garden Party, and I think it runs about $25 or so (if not more). I got it today for $4. The glass is cracked in one spot, but I'm hoping to replace it cheaply. I also found this felt "story" of The Little Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly". Her mouth opens and the kids can stick the animals in as I read the story. This was 75 cents.
I found these glove/ mittens for Isaiah. They were 25 cents.
I also found this cute lacing toy. It is a girl bear, but it was so cute and only 50 cents, so I got it. You take the lid off of the box and then lace her clothes on with shoe laces.

Oh I love the old lady who swallowed a fly. I just got the book for Ryan. The picture is adorable.

I love that picture

I want that bible picture. Unless you find another frame for that exact picture or cut it down, it might be pricey. I hear framing is crazy expensive.

we have a boy lacing set like that and the boys love it. it is the perfect toy to take to church with you for when the boys have to be quiet.

Matthew took the picture yesterday. He works in a framing place and thinks he can get me the glass for $2-3. I couldn't have redone it myself like I originally thought because it was professionally done on the back, not just a slide in back. Good thing I have Matthew, or it probably would have cost me a lot more! I will keep my eye out for another one of those pictures. Who knows, it could show up again somewhere!

Ohhh.. I did a close up of the ABC picture and it is really cool too. I love how the paper looks browned, like it is old and antique. Very cool. I hope Matthew can fix it for you for cheap.
