Vintage Thrifting over the Weekend

Hi Friends, 

 I'm so glad your here! 

Today, I'm so excited to share a local my vintage finds  I found at my local vintage/thrift consignment shop.

This store has also raised their prices, I'm sure I have mention this before. 

But, I did find a few treasures at reasonable prices, let me show you what I brought home!

***

Starting with a couple of green vases and a couple of small bottles

***

I placed the tall light green vase in a vignettes in my China Hutch -I paid $2.00

The emerald color vase I placed in a cubby -paid $0.00

I gather a few of my small brown bottles together and incorporated the new little brown bottle I found on this thrifting trip. Paid $1.00

The small green bottle I also grouped with a few other green bottles in this vignette, paid $4.00

I found two more small bottles, a cute perfume bottle for $1.00

I've display with my other perfume bottles on the high-boy dresser in the guest room

The adorable ink well I paid up a little for it -$10.00

looks great in the little shelf in my computer nook.

***

When I spied the Tupperware condiment tray $1.99 and tumbler $1.00, I had to pick it up!   

While visiting my Daughter a couple of weeks ago she had mentioned she collected Tupperware. She also said she was looking for these clear glass candy containers, ($1.00 each) for sugar and tea. So I'm shipping this bundle to her.

Very cool look cigar Humidor, I look this up couldn't find and exact style, but it may be 1960's or 1970's Humidor It does have a sticker on the bottom (Kaywoodie made in Japan) Paid $7.50

It was added to the shelving that houses my Tobacco Paraphernalia collection.

You know my infatuation with cookies cutter and Jello mold could not pass these treasure up!

I paid $1.00 each and the heart and oval cutters were stamped Germany

Their going into the star colander along with the cute Jello molds

I paid $3.00 for the pack of Jello molds or $1.00 each.

Cute little aluminum Hen cookie cutter

The red handled scissor were $3.00 they had KITCHEN stamped on the blade.

The green aluminum lids and the two canner racks

Look great on the shelf above my kitchen cabinets and adds another layer.

Lastly, 

I picked up the Doll book because I do have two dolls that have been past down from my Great Aunt Jessi.

I thought this picture look similar to the taller doll I have. I did find out my dolls are from Germany

***

Oh! I forgot about this enamel wash pan I've been watching for over a couple of years the tag had a price of $40.00!

this day I looked at the tag and all you could see was the '4', so I took a chance...

When I got ready to pay for this tub the clerk said you know this is priced at $40.00 

I said it's been around a while, so he offer $20.00 and I agreed. 

I'm not sure if it's really vintage, but I'll be using this tub in my yard for the potted plants.

Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to
stop by to see what treasures I have found out thrifting this week.

Late Summer Mantel With Sunflowers Accenting Vintage Bottles

 Hi Friends,

Today I'm changing up my fireplace mantel for late Summer.  With sunflowers, black and white homespun, a crow here and there.

I left the blue framed rooster picture on the vintage window frame, I love this picture!

I brought in a few of my hens from my collection.  This year I have adding touches of Spanish moss, I think the moss gives a more primitive/rustic farmhouse vibe. 

I  just the the added touches of blue and green I also pulled in vintage toy blocks a pottery piece my oldest daughter made in school years ago.

I also included some vintage bottles, a couple of aged books, old tobacco tin.

I really like how my mantel turned out this summer, with the sunflower garland layered with the age light blue jean rag garland with a black and white home spun mixed in.

Thank you so much for stopping by, so until next time May God Bless You and You Family today.

July Patriotic Touches - In the Kitchen

Hi Friends,

So glad you stopped by, today I adding a few Patriotic touches above my kitchen cabinets.

This vintage brown rooster I bought at auction at least 25 years ago. I haven't seen another one like it and no marking that I can see. I add pip berries all through out my house.

The blue glass bottles are added to the collection when ever I come across them.

Same with the tins, I'm always on the look out for vintage tins.

This vignette I add a large glass jar with my collections of cookie cutters

In this vignette I added a couple of items I collect. The tin box is a Madel coffee tin 

I added a sprig of ivy in white enamel pan with red trim, I have also had for a long time

The pfefee pepper shaker is the largest shaker in a small collection of these little people shakers

-blue candle in prim candle holder that I have had for a few years

-As you can tell I used a couple of aged books to give a little height to this vignette.

Thank you for stopping by to see some of the patriotic vignette I added to my kitchen.

God Bless you and your Family,
