Thrift Store Treasures #3

Comment # 31 Kim of Raising 3 Ladies was the winner of the Gypsy Studio Giveaway!  Thank you to all who entered!


This last trip to the thrift store was so exciting!  (yep – I’m one of those weirdos!)

I have always kept my eye out for something to hold my 10 year old daughters salt and pepper collection.  Not quite sure how this collection started but I believe I started it off with an adorable piglet set I found.

Next thing I knew, my mother in law found out she was starting up a collection and my daughter had more salt and pepper shakers than a dog has fleas! 

So on this lucky half off Wednesday I found just the thing:

DRUM ROLL………..$2.50  SCORE!!!! (I didn’t even need to paint it! – My daughter’s colors are green and pink)

Quilt made by my good friend Amy hanging over my daughters bed.

On top of showing off her entire collection (note to MIL – the shelves are full. ) all her sweaters which were previously scattered across her floor shoved in a drawer now have a place to stay!

The next treasure was this super OLD antique mirror.  The details were so pretty.  It weighed a ton! (BTW – that lamp was found for 10 bucks at the same thrift store – I had to fix it up a little though, oh, and so was that tissue holder and the greenery)

Isn’t she pretty!

This wooden mirrored treasure was only $7.50 and worth every penny (especially since I was convinced that behind the boards on the back might be an original copy of the constitution or something – don’t you just love those kind of stories…….”next thing I knew I was a millionaire”…..OK there wasn’t anything behind the boards except a crazy amount of cobwebs which did freak me out a little)

Last but not least, I found a set of NEW drapes for $1.00.  Two panels for $1.00.  I still can’t get over how cheap they were!!!!!

Till the next thrift store adventure my friends!
