Antiquing Like Nobody's Business

I went to the Sacramento Antique Faire this weekend, which is the 2nd Sunday of every month. Sure, it's under the freeway, but it's a pretty great market. I was in search of a file cabinet similar to this one or this one. I'll start the post with some things I didn't buy that I thought were pretty ridiculous, including one that looks like a giant smiling piece of poo. I repeat I did not buy these things:




Now, on to things I did purchase:
1. A triple-decker glass candy jar that I will immediately turn into a triple-decker terrarium. ($4.00)
2. An awesome set of lockers for by the door to stash our shoes, keys, bags, etc. (I've been looking for the right set for some time and these are nice and small and therefore easy to move.) ($75.00, talked down from $95.00)
3. A cute little birdie! ($2.00 - probably too much but I'm always looking for little guys that are just the right size for my small terrariums)
4. Two brand new retro tea towels ($2.00 each, not pictured)
5. Large glass cookie jar, similar to these ones I found last time, but RED and with a painted flower motif ($7.00, also not pictured)
