treasure finds: thrift score


I have been on a mission to find a table for one of the walls of our living room, something I can put a record player (& records), books, a plant and large print on.  I have been checking big name stores, local shops & craigslist for something that just feels like 'the one, but no luck. 

Last week while out running a few errands I drove pass the mother ship of thrift shops.  Seriously this place is huge, so huge it has a cafe in it. What?  I was surprised at how empty the store was and one of the employees told me that the entire store was 50% off the next day -well well- I like saving, but I like being in an empty store more.  I took my precious time browsing and hit the jackpot with all these goodies for $39!






Since we had previously collected so many things over the years, I promised my husband that I will be more thoughtful on my thrifting adventures and I know we can use everything.  Okay maybe everything. I won't lie, I have no idea what I need a light up telephone sign for- but really? How could I not.  

Treasure Breakdown:
side table 15
lamp 5
blanket 5 (which i turned in to a rug)
light up sign 5
hanging fruit basket 3
black wire basket 2
drawer 3 (perfect for supplies in my studio)
jar 1

Oh and if you're wondering, I still haven't found the table I'm looking for!
