Thread: I Love A Good Yard Sale Halloween Find

Tweet

The warm weather is launching everyone into a yard sale frenzy. It seems every block people are selling things cheaper then the 1.00 store around here. I went out this morning and hit a couple nearby. I scored this set of goodies for $2.50. The gargoyle talks and flaps his wings with light up eyes.

Anybody else score with new yard sale goodies this weekend?

great find!!!

awesome deals, Mr. Gris! love that the wings of the gargoyle flap!
I went to a couplde of sales, all I got were a couple of ceramic JOL candle holders, they are about 5 inches in dia. I mostly have outdoor decorations, so ma slowly adding to the indoor stash! paid 2 bucks for the 2 of them.

mom got this for me last week for $2, I finally have a mask for a animated reindeer body/ standing wolf

She placed it on the living room floor for the duration of the party and I noticed one of my cats was not hanging around like usual. When it was time for everyone to leave (it was my b-day party) , I found kitty and held him to say my goodbyes. My cat was digging his claws into me and getting jumpy and was staring down. We were commenting on it and followed his gaze. We all came to the same conclusion that the mask was giving him the heeby jeebies and I went a little closer to see.

His tail became the biggest poof Ive ever seen! He was so terrified of the mask he had hidden himself away for 4 hours and now when he is face to face with it he is veeeery scared. We all couldnt help but laugh and console him.

After showing kitty the mask some, we put it on and tried to get kitty comfortable with it, he was nervous but friendly towards the mask. Now if you try to scare him with it to get off the counter or something he just loves up on it, like "see, were cool buds now".

I hope kitty does not think the mask is his new mate!

lol, no he has no urge for that But on the plus side he isnt afraid. I was thinking of using it to scare him off the counters, just mount the head up there, lol. But he got over it pretty quickly.

those are great finds, i really love the gargoyle. Today i scored 8 large plexiglas framed motivational posters for $2.00. Now i can start on maybe doing a peppers ghost!

Well I got off work and decided to give the new cauldron a make over. I watched Addams Family while working and it made for a great night.

I love the Gargoyle as well I cant seem to find it online to figure out where it is from so it may be a bit unique.

nice finds! and awesome cauldron

Great finds!!! and very cool embellishment to the cauldron. Gives it a whole new bit of life.
