The last few weeks have been a slow time for me at the thrifts. I've been thrifting but I haven't found very much that spoke to me. I finally set up at the local flea market and got some stuff out of my house so I can work on revamping my front room. I am seriously considering mid century modern decor. My problem is in my area it is pretty slim (and the few things I've found are way out of my price point). I did manage to find a few keepers this week though.

| I found this Contempo Frost pot at the GW for $3.03. I really like the clean simple lines it has. |
I bought this cute little bookcase from my favorite junk store for $5.00. The owner is amazing and comes across some really neat things. I overheard her talking about selling the other day and it really worries me. She has been telling me times are tough and I fear my place may be closing soon. I have been a big shopper at her store since I got married 18 years ago. I can literally stand in any room in my house and find 10 things I bought from her store. The light colored chair below came from her shop as well and it was half price of the original $5.99 price.

| I am in love with this cute little bookcase. It needs to be cleaned up and shined with some Howards but I will get to that soon. |

| I bought the lamps and the black chair at 2 different GWs. The lamps were $17.97 for the pair but I fell in love with them. The chair cost me $5.95. I just need to find the perfect shades for the lamps. I really like the color and texture the lamps have. |

Some very cool retro finds. I do think that bookcase is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThat's a very nice coffee pot, lovely shape...I think it's funny that it cost you $3 and 3c..where did they get the 3c from?
ReplyDeleteThey mark all of their wares that way to avoid people changing the price... $1.01, $2.02, etc... Kind of crazy pricing system but that's the way they do it around here.
ReplyDeleteI have that EXACT SAME bookcase! I'm looking at it right now...right across from me in my office! I really liked the angled shelving on it, and for its size it really holds a lot. Nice find!!
ReplyDeleteCan you hear me yellin !? I love those lamps and the earth tone colors!
ReplyDeleteSorry I just saw your comments. Thank you so much.
