Christmas Vintage-Farmhouse-Rustic Thrift Haul

 Hi Friends,

I went shopping again after work and look what I found.

A county Christmas


Guess what? ...  I wasn't really looking for clothing today, but I came across this beautiful red sweater for only $4.00. Guess what, it was in my size! I couldn't believe it!

I picked up a box of Holly glass ornaments for $1.50, the box is kind of beat up but their were 11 ornament in this box, so less than $.25 a piece.  

I didn't think was a bad price for American made glass ornaments.



This box has a bit smaller ornament, plus a few more if the box was complete.   However, for $1.50 I was able to savage 12 glass ornaments made in the USA.

Bells, Bells, Bells I really wasn't thinking about using Christmas bells in my décor this year, however I just kept finding some. lol!

The bells on the red strap is the second of this kind that I have found, pretty excited about that.  I also the the bell wreath, it will look nice hanging from one of my window frames, I do believe. 

I also picked up a bag of bottle brush trees, for $.25. I have seen all over social media many ways to display using these little bottle brush trees. 

I was thinking, I have some child building blocks and thread spools, maybe I could add the trees to them. 

For $.50 I thought I could definitely use this red trimmed napkin with the pretty poinsettias, as a table scarf.

Some glass Christmas ornaments for $.75, that I had to pick up.

I found this cute red boot $.30.  I had to look it up to find out when it was made. What I found was that this little boot was made by Rosbro, and was filled with candy back in the day.  I'll probably add a bottle brush tree to this cute boot. 

The angel candle holder had some great patina to it, I paid $.75.  I went to google to find a manufacture and learned a little more about it, even though the angel looks like pewter or brush metal, it's actually made from brass in Hong Kong.  Who knew?

 

Best find today was this Mrs. Clause carrying a bag and candy cane, I'm super excited to find this treasure.

For $1.50, who could pass up this gem!


It is stamped Japan.


Super Cute!

Thank you for stopping by to check out my haul.

My God Bless You and Your Family.

A Small Thrift Haul Looking for Vintage Holiday Décor

 Hi Friends,

This is Thanksgiving Eve!  I haven't be to my favorite antique store in a while and just wanted to check in to look for a few vintage turkeys.  

Didn't find any, however I did find a few things.


A wonderful green metal box, I can't wait to use in my Christmas décor.


Look at this nice brass candle stick I'm going to add it to my small collection of brass candle sticks I already have.
 I also found a cool looking wooden plaque to hang keys possibly?
For $4.00 I picked up a vintage door knob.

And lastly, a little plaque that says, "God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. AMEM."
I love it!


I was kind of bummed that I didn't find any more vintage turkeys, I'll just keep hunting.

Thank you for stopping by.


May God Bless You and Your Family!
