Yesterday, my husband Ray and I drove north on US 11 Antique Alley from Gadsden Alabama to Rising Fawn Georgia. This event happens every year, where people living along US 11 set up mostly garage sales and antique sales in their front yards. The drive was beautiful, especially north of Fort Payne, where the mountains became more prevalent. Good deals were made along the way, including four ladder back chairs for a little less than $30, an old fashioned push (not motorized) lawn mower that a friend has been wanting to get, some old paint by number floral pictures, a chair pad that massages and heats up for 50 cents, and a quirky wooden clog I want to use as a planter! What I would consider a very successful trip!
Cute stuff!! The paint by numbers are even nicer looking than I imagined!
ReplyDeleteThanks Stine! I've seen that kind of stuff in magazines and on etsy decor sites, so I was happy to find them so cheap! I love ya!
ReplyDeleteMan I wish I had know about this I'm in Jax and would of totally driven. Great finds though :)
ReplyDeleteRenee, in August, The World's Longest Yard Sale starts in Gadsden and runs for like 5oo miles north! I've gone the last two years and always find some treasures! It is held this year August 6-9th. You can google 127yard sale and see the map for it!
ReplyDeleteThat sale sounds really fun. I think I read about in a magazine somewhere.
ReplyDeleteHGTV always covers the longest yard sale!
