Day Twenty: Holey pants and Bathroom books

Eeek! I can't believe I've already fallen behind in recording my progress! Since I last wrote, I have gotten rid of:


#98-112. magazines
#113. Christmas tin
#114. Whisk (we have a metal one we like better)

#115. ice bucket
#116-117. glasses
#118. old coffee tin



#119. Strawberry Shortcake toy case
#120. Tina Fey's book
#121. "Cake Doctor" cupcake cookbook
#122. Calvin & Hobbes book
#123. another Calvin & Hobbes book
#124. Soup cookbook


#125. yoga pants. One of my favorite pairs got a giant rip in them. I almost thought about sewing them but the bottoms were pretty tattered, too. So I tearfully said farewell and threw them away.


#126. vintage fur-trimmed boots (not pictured, gave to my Mom & forgot to photograph)
#127. metal microscope case
#128. green ceramic shell vase (an Etsy shop reject)
#129. mustard Melmac platter
#130. Bathroom trivia book
#131. Bathroom puzzle book (there's just something weird about bathroom books. They remind me of a certain Seinfeld episode.)

 
 
More to come tomorrow, I couldn't fit it all in one post!

Catching up: Day 4-7

Day Four: (no picture)

#74. book
#75. book
#76. book
(are you sensing a theme here?)
#77. book
#78. book
#79. necklace-from the 1928 line from Kohl's

Day Five:




















#80. metal jeweled barrette
#81. wooden pencil cup
#82. ceramic Santa
#83. metal mail organizer/letter holder
#84. brass plant stand on casters
#85. dog reindeer costume (both dogs too big for it now)

 
#86. retro glass (faded and chipped-threw away)
#87. perpetual calendar/pen holder (rusted/pen holder broke-threw away)

Day Six:


#88. "Something's Cookin' in the Mountains" cookbook
#89. tiny ceramic duck
#90. World's Best Mom mug (small interior chip or I would have gifted to my mom)
#91. sewing machine-shaped brooch
#92. Mexican souvenir bowl

Day Seven:

#93. vintage basket weave clock (did not sell in my Etsy shop or in my ill-fated antique booth)
#94. weird 3-sided pendant that looks like a stoplight, with red, green & yellow stones
#95. miniature cocktail shaker. I do not need miniature when it comes to cocktails.
#96. drinking glass, mod retro pattern. This is cute but not vintage and I have too many odd glasses that are not part of a matching set...
#97. purple pottery ashtray, has a small chip or I'd sell it
 
 
I can't believe I'm almost up to 100 items already!

Day Three: It's Irie.

Day Three..




















#69. Bob Marley head wall hanging (souvenir from our 2007 Jamaican honeymoon. Ya mon.)
#70. another small touch lamp
#71. ugly handpainted mug from a ladies pottery night (I am no artist, that is glaringly obvious)
#72. metal warmer stand to vintage casserole dish. Never found one that fit.
#73. wall clock with paperclips in place of the numbers.

If I get rid of all my junk, everything will be irie, mon.
