Vintage Jewelry Treasure Hunt

Hubby and I were off and at 'em this weekend to our favorite Saturday morning treasure hunt.  It's been a while since we've made the trek to the Barnyard Flea Market because our Summer seasonal business is in full swing, but we finally took a much needed weekend off.

I found several pieces of vintage jewelry and other things to put in my Etsy shop.  I love the jewelry of the 50's, 60's and '70's.  I'm always on the lookout for it - either to add to my collection or to re-sell.

It was not a very productive day, but there's always another time and another treasure hunt just around the corner.

I found several unmarked brooches.  Vintage sparkly jewelry makes a beautiful accessory to giftwrapping for the Christmas Holidays.  For Girls Only.   Just pin one in the center of the bow.  It really dresses up a Christmas package!

This whole box of vintage Christmas stuff was only $2.


It included a Hallmark ornament of Pepe Le Peau

And a Kurt Adler circus elephant ornament

I love old church plates.  This one was done in 1965 for 1st Baptist Church of Brunswick Georgia

Love this little Oil & Vinegar set!

I went away from the flea market wishing I had a place for this lovely old sewing machine.  It was only $100 and it worked, was in excellent cosmetic condition and had all the original attachments! 

Until next time....Happy treasure hunting.
