Doesn't it feel good to get what you want and not have to pay a fortune?<br /><br />I love hearing about your boys. I always wanted three boys because I had three nieces and I was ready to buy some boy things. I had a son who was severely disabled so I elected not to have any more children so I could take good care of him but I would have loved to have some more boys. I live through your stories. The first post I read of yours was the toile story and your son's room and picture frame. I laughed because it was so sweet. I added you to my feed list right then. I love the energy of boys-so fun, so playful and just joyful. My son is a lot of fun as well and very boyish. <br /><br />My ultimate garage sales find was actually found on Craigslist for $39. It was a Louis XV giltwood mirror worth thousands of dollars. I didn't know what style it was when I found it but I did know that I LOVED it. I went to pick it up and it wouldn't fit in my car! When I couldn't find anything like it on the internet, I began to think it might be worth a fortune. I e-mailed the man to get it's history and found it was his Grandmother's and it was over 40 years old. I haven't had the antique appraisal yet but I did some research and found the manufacturer and a nearly identical new one was $4000 and mine is 40-103 years old (the company that made the mirror has been in business 103 y years) so I imagine it's closer to the $10k range. I'll probably get it appraised later this month. I have it on my blog and will probably do a post on it when I get the appraisal in. The picture is on my website if you click on tablescapes. It's the gold mirror on the wall with the ornate detailing (not to be confused with the green/gold one for this week's tea tablescape).Dream Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18351348027973964625noreply@blogger.com
