Weekend Thrifting for Treasures

Hi Friends,

Weekend thrifting at my local thrift store, I came home with a few treasure.
I'm always on the lookout for rolling pins wooden trinket boxes, little salt box houses, candle sticks, pewter, old silver items, salt and pepper shakers, and fabric items (hot pads, dish towels, yardage, placemats ) etc.


I found a rolling pin for $5.00 "CHECK"!


A pewter platter for $4.00

some little salt box houses, so cute "CHECK"!


Who knew about these small brass bowls, I do have brass candle sticks and a brass bucket so maybe I'm starting a new collect? "Who knows".


This cute little kids spoon caught my eye, I have a small collection of vintage spoons.


A wooden trinket box "CHECK"!

I found some great items! Next post I'll let you see how I display them around my house. 

Thank you so much for stopping by to see what I have been up to.  

So until next time....

May God Bless You and Your Family.

Yard Sale - Thrifting Again!


Hi Friends, 

Thank you for stopping by My Little Colorado Cottage.

I went thrifting again, this time I hit a couple of yard sales with my youngest grandson.  

We found a few wonderful things.

Old westerns Louis Lamour paperbacks for only $.25 each. Of course these paperbacks are going into my personal library.

A cedar jewelry box for $1.00 that is in nice shape I'm not sure if I'll leave it original or paint it.  We'll see.


A wicker hurricane lantern with handle for $.50.  Wicker isn't really my ever day style, however I'm thinking maybe use it in my Christmas décor?


Very cute vintage wooden snowman for $.25. I'll definitely be using this snowman in my winter décor.

I also found a vintage Santa figurine for $.25.  Not sure how vintage it is ,but I believe hell look very nice in my Christmas vignettes.



I was very surprised by the prices, most of the yard sales around my area are pricy. 

I believe I will pack away the Christmas items, but come back by to see how I'll incorporate the wicker lantern and cedar jewelry box into my summer décor.

So until next, May God Bless you and your family.
