Dear ebay, you are awesome

Posted on | April 24, 2009 | 7 Comments

I can be a little dangerous when it comes to impulse buying random vintage treasures on ebay. I have plenty of friends with ebay problems, but they buy clothes, shoes, handbags, etc. Not me. I like searching the random antiques and vintage treasures. It’s like a flea market on my computer and I can type any old thing I want to into the search box and bloop! there it is. It’s really a lot of fun (too much?), but I have to watch myself. Here’s some of my newest finds; 8 vintage glass mason jars and a vintage 1962 Coca-Cola (sidenote: ATL forever) Wooden Crate. I still have to find a permanent home and uses for them but until then they sure are making me smile. I also recently bought a random box of old recipes (who does that?), I don’t have a clue what I’ll do with it but it is exploding with fun old recipes and it smells fantastic (to me at least). But then again, I’m a little bit odd.

    It’s so, so dangerous, isn’t it? I love that Cokacola box though!

    I love it! But this is exactly why I rarely allow myself to check Ebay. It’s just too easy to buy!
