This is probably the most unique Girl Guide item found at a yardsale...so far. I did not even know that such a thing existed. I have no idea where it was made nor how old it is. There are no markings on it. The funny thing is that I was on my way to the Year End Guider Banquet {June 2011} in Sydney and decided to stop along the way at a couple of yardsales in St. Peter's. I could not believe my eyes when I spotted this little item. I asked "how much for this?" ...she said $1...I said SOLD! So glad I stopped along the way.

| This older style Guide scarf was found at a church fleamarket last May. The colours are so vibrant and of nice quality designed by Jean Miller for "The Girl Guides of Canada". |

| This 1977 Brownie Handbook was found at Value Village thrift store last spring. I adore the artwork and colours! |
You never know when or where old Girl Guide Stuff will pop up! This is why I love going to Yardsales, Garage Sales, Fleamarkets, and Thrift stores. I have more Yardsale Haul photos from last year to be posted soon!

Yardsale Haul- Brownie Uniform
For those of you who know me , know that I LOVE yardsales and thrifty finds. I started taking photos of my Yardsale Hauls last year and so I thought I would share with you some of my Girl Guide finds. I found this 1990's Brownie Uniform at a community fleamarket in the country. Our current uniform is an orange T-shirt with navy blue sleeves. Our tie has changed and the badge sash is now navy blue. We no longer use the belt and pouch which is a shame because they were so cute! This ensemble was $2.00... What a bargain!
Once I go through all the pics on my computer then I can post more Yardsale Finds! Yardsale season will be starting in a few weeks in this town and I just can't wait! Leave a Comment if you too have found any Girl Guide stuff at Yardsales/fleamarkets/thrift stores.
