Christmas is Around the Corner! - Friday Thrift


Hi Friends, 

 I'm so glad your here! I stopped by my local thrift store and found a fannel shirt for me $4.00, but why I stopped by the thrift store was to look for Christmas wreath on sale.

I have my eyes on a couple of Christmas wreaths and was hoping Christmas wreaths would be half off, I was very suprised every I bought was discounted!
***

 I though this Eucalyptus Wreath was beautiful,
for $5.00, which really is not a bad price.
***
I have also been keeping an eye out on this cute little snowman hat for a $1.00, I'm still not sure how I'm going to display it.
***

I thought the foil cupcake tins ($.50 were cool and had Christmas color to display on a kitchen shelf.

***

( The item is the bag is a Multiplication gadget for practicing multiplication facts. $.75)
***
As you know....I love to pick up grab-bag and this bundle of horses, (for $2.50) was prefect for the grandkids.

***
Grab-Bag of  1950 or 1960's plastic Holly and Berry stems. ($3.50)


I've been using some the these stem for outside decor.
The label

***
Looking in the Sporting Goods area I found a Stanley thermos for $3.00.


***

Two wonderful kid christmas movies $1.00 each.

***
A bag of 12 Santa Shower Curtain Hooks, How Cool!
I'm going to use them as decor or maybe magnets,




(I just easly brook the hook of the back)
***
Lastly, a wooden shoe form for $8.00 I paid $4.00. I think the painting is so sweet I might leave it alone.

***

 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.

 I would love to hear what you have found thrifting and how you style it in your home. 

 So until my next post......

Vintage Inspired February Décor

Hi Friends, 

I'm so happy you stopped by 'My Little Colorado Cottage' today!
It's February 1st and time to add a little Valentine décor. The month I'm starting with the guest-room High-Boy.

I've gathered together a few heart shape items, I have thrifted lately to incorporate with my February/Valentine Décor

*****
These items were recent purchases for the local 'Community Budget Thrift'.

The shell heart box had no marking on it but was lined in red felt.  The footed trinket box was handmade with a mark of 1974


This cute footed hat pin vase was also thrifted I added a dried rose to this grouping


***


The pretty pin was in a grab-bag I purchase for $2.50


This cute vintage Valentine, I found on a trip out of town and on the back it has writing To Alice From Grace '1929'.


Isn't this vintage Winter scene beautiful?  I found this amazing framed print at my local vintage/thrift store for $1.00 about a month ago.


***


Lastly, the curio shelf I thrifted at a yard sale for $1.00, all of the cute little vintage bottle I've been collecting over the years, the most I will pay is $2.00 a bottle.
