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.

Decorate with me....... Small Area of the Living room with Some of my Collectibles

Hi Friends,

Today I'm playing around with a vignette on a book shelf in my living room.  I gather a couple of my vintage chickens, some of my gramma's measuring cups, a jadeite salt shaker, a metal recipe box my son Mod Podge way back in high school, one of my brass candle sticks, a couple of vintage cookie, and a dark green depression glass salt shaker.

So lets see how I rearrange these pieces to find the prefect arrangement.

Changed it up a bit by adding a rusty tin for a riser

I'm loving this little vignette I put together for summer.

Thank you for stopping by.  Let me know what you think?  Is it the milk glass vase or the brass candle stick?

Until the next time .....

May God Bless You and Your Family.

Treasure Hunting for Vintage Farmhouse Décor

Hi Friends,

I'm on the hunt once more for vintage farmhouse décor.  Thank you for stopping by to see what I found.

This Norman Rockwell America book was such a great find it has so many amazing pictures.  I will probably incorporate this wonderful book on my coffee table 

 I was lucky to pick up some old elementary books.  I love the old graphics so I will be adding these books into my library

I thought I really got a deal on this bag of cookie cutter when I got home I found I had a few copper cutters and cutter with a green handle so cool.

I also purchased these vintage Christmas nic-nac

Look at this set of wooden boxes for Lillian Carter catalog. I've been on the look out for these wooden boxes to display around my home and also use as storage.

I believe these kitchen curtain are hand embroidered not sure how I will use them, but I will save them for my April décor I think.

I found some great farmhouse items today and very excited to incorporate them into my every day décor.

So until the adventure, God Bless you and your family.
