But to make sure that I have enough cash left over for the things I actually NEED, I set rules like - no more than $10 for an old/broken necklace (if the beads are worth more than that to me), or no more than $4 for an old key. It helps me from going overboard...unless I find the motherload, lol!!!Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00507261694124497683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271508841165439447.post-12807727655495601702015-03-16T22:55:56.572-04:002015-03-16T22:55:56.572-04:00Good post!

We are kindred spirits.
...Splendid post, Lindsay! We are kindred spirits. <br /><br />I wholeheartedly endorse what you said about if you can't stop looking at a thing or fondling it, BUY IT. <br /><br />And I have noticed that really good items do call to us from five feet away. "Over here!", they seem to whisper. I notice this not only with junking, but with photography and haiku.<br /><br />I saw once on a blog where an artist was using links of antique belly dancing chain!!! I so want to find one of those! There is a super wonky antique store in Dallas called Dolly Python where all of the sellers in the co-op are covered in tattoos. If I am going to find my belly dancing chain it will be there!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10023545217757195011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271508841165439447.post-70692781991492786182015-03-15T10:49:45.238-04:002015-03-15T10:49:45.238-04:00I've found some pretty cool things in architec...I've found some pretty cool things in architectural salvage shops antique shops, junk shops, flea markets, etc. But I have yet to find a piece of vintage jewelry that appeals to me enough to pay money and break it apart. I usually only find (what I consider to be) junk or way overpriced stuff. But I still look. Thanks for letting us see your treasures and the tips for finding our own treasures.

I got a bracelet that I think is a Miriam Haskell at a thrift store for $2.00.Becky Pancakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08683182644887296641noreply@blogger.com
