Garage Sales and Hidden Estate Sales

I had the intent of going garage saling today, which worked out great, because I found some hidden estate sales, you know those ones that are basically garage sales but they are all vintage stuff they are trying to get rid of for mom and dad? Yeah I found some of those. My whole day ended up setting me back $3. I also hit a barn sale the day before and found some great finds there too. 

From the barn sale:

 
I have always admired these industrial metal '50s lamps. I figure it will go in my office and match my industrial desk lamp!



Never have seen one of these before, a vintage chrome towel rack? Yes please! 



Now for the garage sales:



This little guy is going to be GREAT! I'm so happy about this find.


Still in the box with manuals and warranty (yeah that's useful)




Sears electric knife, with an awesome Starburst on the handle. They had two vintage ones at the sale, this one, and another that was still in original packing which looks of a higher quality. I decided to buy both. This one would look cool mounted (minus the blades of course someone would think I was crazy, not that they didn't already buying two electric knives!) and the other one for actual use. 

 
Can you say Woolco in original packaging? 







I also saw this and thought it was gorgeous as I was driving through the neighborhoods. 

I admit I did skip posting my finds from another sale, I have been so busy. I only found a vintage Montgomery Wards bun warmer and some vintage Christmas lights, so it's not totally worth posting just a couple items.
