Some of the best memories I have from my childhood involve my dad, chocolate doughnuts, and garage sales! On special Saturdays my dad and I would wake up really early and head to Southern Maid Doughnuts. There always seemed to be a plethora of elderly gentlemen sipping coffee and reading the newspaper. After eating a sugary breakfast with the old folks, my dad and I would be all hyped up and ready to go on our treasure hunt! I don't remember buying much at those garage sales, but I will always remember how much fun we'd have wasting the day away rifling through other people's junk.

It's been ages since I've been garagin! I don't get up as easily now-a-days! But my husband and I had this past Saturday free so I used my dad's old tactics and tempted him with some doughnuts! IT WORKED! haha we got up early and headed to good ol Paradise doughnuts.

Once we had sugar and coffee we were ready for the hunt! We were amazed by all the goodies we found. We found a beautiful lamp for only, two vintage suitcases (one of which I am in the process of upcyclying and will definitely be posting soon!), an iron skillet, a vintage radio, an adorable vintage dress that I will refashion later, and my favorite find... a box of sewing essentials for only $2.00! All in all we had a great time and I hope to build more memories and find more treasures later! :)
