a funny thing happened on the way to a garage sale....

i love subdivision sales...lots of houses in a small area.  shannon and i hit one up a couple of miles from me on friday.  friday is trash pick up day up the road from my house....on the way there we saw a 

huge pile of furniture tossed in a heap in front of someone's house....

hmmmm...

we had to stop.

i'm glad we did....this is what we found

a twin headboard and footboard

another headboard

a picture frame

a couple of chairs

 that were in pretty bad shape, but i just want the legs

i know this one is broken but i think if i cut it off just below the break i could still use it as legs for a coffee table or spares for another chair.

they have a pretty shape....

and best of all....free!

the last piece was this dresser.  the drawers were broken or missing but i 

think it would make a really cool bookshelf.

i love the size and i love the design on the front sides.

and it's solid wood...

i think this one will be cool when i'm done with it.

the van was full before we even made it to the garage sales...but we wanted to hurry up and get there 

so we had to have some of the people hold our goodies until i could unload this furniture at home

but free is good....

i will share what we found at the garage sales in the next couple of days.

here is a sneak peek...yuk!!
