Five (5!) boxes full of DMC floss! Two of the boxes of floss are not marked with any numbers, so I'm assuming they are DMC. There are also a few Marlitt and J&P Coats flosses in there too.
Next is.........
A double sided Plano box (probably a tackle box) FULL of DMC floss wound on the larger plastic bobbins! There was also a small pair of stork scissors, a project ring, and about 20 unused plastic bobbins.
And next is.....
A Cottage Garden box that matches a couple others I have. Originally, these are about $30 and I got this one for $8!
And lastly.....
Two afghan books. Vanna's is all crochet and the Herrschners is mostly crochet, with a couple knit. Originally, these are between $25 and $30 brand new and I got them for $2 each!! Woo hoo!
I got good deals on all of this for a total of around $50. And had SO much fun doing it! When I found all of this, a few other things I had picked out were put back on the shelf! :-)
I'll be back in a couple days with a couple finishes!!
All in all, a great labor day weekend!
