Friday - Thrift Haul - on the Hunt for Vintage

Hi Friends,

I did visit my local thrift store hoping to find more Thanksgiving treasures or maybe a couple more unique pumpkins, I didn't come home with pumpkins or unique Thanksgiving pieces .....

but, I found a few more things for Christmas and I did find a few bucket list items.

I have a collection of moss rose china that was handed down to me.

Any time I find a piece I pick it up. the little covered dish/tureen had a sticker price of $10.00 - I got it for $6.00. YIPPIE!

The Peter Rabbit plate made by Wedgewood in England, I do already have a plate, saucer, cup set. I just couldn't pass it up for $3.00

The vintage salad plate had no marking, but think it might be a Homer & Laughlin piece, $.50

Cute Christmas hand towel for $.50

A very cute violin shape clear glass bottle made by Maryland Glass Company in the 50's possibly,

 I used in my November Fall décor.

*****

Craft supplies are on my list of things to look for because as you know the prices are very reasonable bag of bells $.75 each, sequins $.15 each.

red beads $.30

*****

For $1.00 I found a bag of tinsel

A box of Christmas tree coasters $1.75

     

               

a super cute velvet potpourri cone ornament $.50

 

*****

I spotted the glass handle door knobs that were in a glass case, I asked to look at the knobs and for $6.00 I thought, WOW!

after getting them home I'm not sure if there vintage not much wear-tear, but $6.00 isn't bad for a new set I don't think.

*****

Super cute bird house for $3.00, I'll be using this birdhouse outside next spring

Lastly, Who can resist a grab bag or two? 

$0.75

$1.50

Not a super big haul but found a few special pieces. 

I would like to know what item did you like? 

What are some treasures on your list to hunt for?

Thank you so much for taking a little time out of your day to check out what I have been doing here at 'My Little Colorado Cottage' 

Please check back soon, I'm hoping to start decorating for the month of December next week.

Until the next post .....

Vintage Sunday Thrift Haul

 

Hi Friends, 

My local vintage/thrift store was open again on Sunday, so I had to stop by to see if I could find some more treasures...

The two plastic pumpkin buckets were $.50 each and Ill be using them later for my Halloween décor.

$1.00 a bundle for the wire hooks

to be used on a few of my small shelves

I saw on $2.00 for the door latch and $.50 for the two piece door knob

would love to find skeleton keys

 I don't know much about the thread spindles I have been finding but I do like how they look cool in my sewing nook, this thread spindle I paid $.50.

Coca-Cola bottles for $1.50 each not that vintage I don't think, one bottle had a date 12-45, patent number and was stamped Thermopolis, WYO on the bottom. The other Coca-Cola bottle had a date of 63-9 and was stamped anchor-hocking with 10 on the bottom. I just love knowing the history of the treasure I display in my home.

Thank you for checking out my post today, Please check back by for other thrift hauls and how I incorporated my treasure into my home décor.

So...until the next post.....
