Recent Thrift Finds

(Just a quick break from trip photos)

While in La Grande last weekend, my sister-in-law and I went for a morning walk with mocha money in our pockets. We came

upon a barn sale...and I found a few treasures.

The little pink glass set up above is intended for Emmalee someday.

I don't know how old it is or how to find out...any ideas?

I know that it's at least 30 years old. The pitcher is about three inches tall with swans in the design.

This little guy is tiny...his head stands about 2".

I love the color of these bottles/jars.

Mom and I spent some time thrifting on Saturday.
It was so much fun...we went to just two Goodwills, but found
a ton of fun things.
The Pyrex baking dish didn't have a price on it, so I asked an
employee how much it would cost. He took a .99 sticker off of another
dish and put it on mine. It happened to be the color of the day, so I got it for .50!


I'm looking for old wooden frames for a collage I've planned.
While digging through the frames, I came across this little guy.
I immediately started laughing and decided I had to have him.

It's handmade, with a date of 1974 printed on the back.

I've decided I'm going to hang him where I can see him often

throughout the day.

These two were also hidden amongst the frames.

Again, I bought them for the frames...the needlework will likely be turned into little pillows. Mom and I were amazed by how many handmade

things made it to Goodwill. If I ever make something for you, please don't send it to a Goodwill near me... :)

I have been looking for a quilt stand for months. This one
will likely get a facelift once I decide which room it belongs in.

I was SO happy to come across this Tupperware set. This set, plus one more of the small ones is currently on sale for $47 on the Tupperware website. My price? .99 each! They mix nicely with the red Tupperware

I already have. As you can see, they were immediately put to use!

There were several handmade blankets/afghans...this

one found a home with us for $2.99.
