Hi Friends,
Today is overcast, the outside temperatures are cooling down, it's getting closer to Autumn, I just want to give a last view of some of the great thrifted treasure I found in the month of August and September and how I've incorporated the awesome items into my home.
*****
In the family room on the red shelves a very cool rusty bucket with lid and a handle! I think the bucket looks great on the shelf with a few other thrifted items and the DIY Felt Crow.

I've been looking for a long time for lead flower frogs, just a few weeks ago I found the two green flowers frogs and the gentleman asked me what they were, lol! I couldn't believe it.

Some of the little bottles I have picked-up this summer thrifting.

This summer I was very surprised with the amount of reasonably priced Hens/Roosters I found, (I guess hens and rooster are going out of style), Oh well, I'll still be looking.

and the hunt for the perfect copper lid, lol I'm still looking.

In the living room I have cubbies in the hutch that serve space for a few of my collections,
red pepper shaker and a very cute ribbed salt shaker and the saucer was also a find this month
If you missed the Late-Summer on the Hutch you can see that seasonal display.

I was very blessed to be able to find a few milk glass pieces that has expanded my Milk Glass collection.
I think these treasures were my favorite thrifted find. Milk Glass candy dish for 1.00 and the Wedding compote for 2.00 dollars. I have think I have found a place to show off the milk glass I have collected so far.
I don't know maybe the milk-glass nesting hen is my favorite find.
and this awesome retro yellow glass vase

the hand made mug, the cute silver-plate dish and the little baskets
shaving cup on a shelf in the bathroom

Thank you for stopping by My Little Colorado Cottage to see what I've been doing.
I hope I was able to inspire you that thrifted item will add a little whimsical charm to any vignette. If you need more Late-Summer inspiration, please follow the link late-summer Sunflowers and Vintage on the mantel
So until next week.....
May God Bless You and Your Family,
