Thursday's Thriftin Finds

Decided to hit a few thrift stores yesterday and I'm really glad I did. I should have been home working on some projects, but shopping is way more fun. I did the usual Goodwill, Value Village, Salvation Army route and this is what I found to bring home.

Cute scrolly wicker shelf, floral tin, decanter, two vintage jewelry box (only one shown), vintage baby ben clock, glass jar, brass towel holder, handpainted trinket box, vintage hankies, revolving display thingy, two clipboards, miscellaneous crocheted doilies, crocheted collar, pink bath pillow, glass paper weight and vintage plastic bowl. Sorry my picture is so dark, but if you click on it you will be able to see the individual items better. I scored at Value Village with several 50% items and a 30% coupon on all non sale items.

I also found this snowy white chenille spread. Large enough for my queen. Not a vintage one, but still pretty.

Here is a close up of the jewelry box dancer. She is a little underdressed, but I love that she doesn't just twirl when the music is playing, her legs dangle too.

When I got home from thrifting, I had a couple packages waiting in the mail for me. One was this lot of vintage rhinestone jewelry that I bought on ebay for a song.

This rhinestone tiara came in the same package.





















This one too. Not so vintage, but maybe I'll wear it when I go out clubbing. ha ha

I also got these five vintage watch bands on Etsy. I have some ideas for these.

Last weekend I went to Monticello for my weekly visit and of course could not resist stopping at a few thrift stores along the way. Here are a few of the things I found that day. Little handmade vintage box with drawers (already gave this one a makeover with some paint), vintage suitcase, wood folding stand.

Rose still life painting.

And finally, another shopping cart and another lap desk. This one is a lot bigger than the other ones I found and will get a make over with some creamy paint.

That's all I have to show you for now. My next post will be on Sunday when I am participating in Analise and Cerri's "Show & Tell Sunday." Should be a lot of fun so make sure to come for a visit then. Until then, have a great weekend!
