Fonda's Fabulous Funday Finds #1 {one large green frog comin' up}

For my birthday in August of 2016, I wanted to meet up with Donna Wilkes of  distresseddonnadownhome. She's a sweetheart, and we quickly became friends. On the way to meet her, we stopped at a yard sale in Sumter, SC, just outside of Columbia. I wanted to break up our long-ish drive, so I checked Craigslist for yard sales. These photos are of the items we found at that yard sale:

Aluminum Bundt pan

Isn't that a wonderful shape for a Bundt cake!?!

Pens, nibs and rulers

I love office supplies, and this bunch of goodies was for me.

Sewing and knitting supplies plus buttons

I also love needle arts supplies. There are some old patterns at the back right that are in great shape. The buttons are bright and new, and I should find a project for those. The brand new sewing machine needles always come in handy. The contents of the box are the office supplies shown above.

Fat quarters

Look at the fat quarters! Brand new batiks and quilting cottons.

Flower frog

Everyone needs a large green oval flower frog! It's about 5" long. {Correction: It's 6.5" at the base!}

Slide Rule

The slide rule has a broken piece, but I'm thinking about selling it to a collector on eBay.

So that was our visit in Sumter. From there, we drove to two quilt stores (stay tuned). After that, we went to our motel where Donna would meet us the next day. I'll save that excursion for next time.

From Bundt pans to large green frogs to slide rules...and everything in between...
