You and Amanda both look so adorable in your non-vintage garb! I normally go to estate sales in normal clothing too, to fake out the competition and to keep my vintage for getting dirty while digging in basements and attics. I bet Amanda's suit is super, gotta love vintage bathing suits. I am loving the new old furniture from your Great-Grandma. I bet you are really enjoying it!!! Oh, and I saw your comment about getting a Swirl, I can't wait to see it's debut on the blog!! :)Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16649228794272554685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1085997960024984026.post-476845505254362312010-06-08T20:38:08.830-04:002010-06-08T20:38:08.830-04:00So how do you find out estate sales?
