I Found Some Great Vintage Treasures -On a Whim, I Stopped by my Local Thrift Store


Hi Friends, 
 I'm so glad your here! 

Last week, I stopped by the local thrift store and notice a bunch of candles, not sure why I didn't bring some home that day??

So..... I thought I would stop by and check out the candle bin this week. Great prices

To my surprise, I brought home 51 new candles for a total of $10.50 Two boxes were long tapered 'Party Lite' candles.

While I'm here I'll checked the pattens cabinet hadn't in a while, found a few cool patterns for $.10 each.
check out the patterns I found for a patriotic vignette in my sewing corner next year.


Cute 'Raggedy Andy and Raggedy Ann' pattern and a 'Holly Hobby'  
I'm not much of a knitter, but thought the pattern for 'Barbie' was neat along with the vintage pillow cover pattern. I'm thinking of framing the pattern covers.

As you know I have a couple of Aunt Martha's patterns, so found one to add to my collection.

The prices on the S&P's was Great! at $1.50. 
I thought my newly shakers would look nice displayed on a shelf in the China Hutch with another set of silver-plate shakers.
***
The brass planter was $2.00
I think the brass bowl filled vintage dominos looks green with my emerald color vase collection.
***
The vintage canning jars were another great find at $1.00 each, and will go into my collection of vintage canning jars.

I have a wire basket on top of my hutch to display my new vintage canning jars, I filled them with pip berries.
***
This vintage oil lamp was my favorite for $3.50, it was paired with a chimney for $5.00, that didn't fit right, so I left it behind.

The burner on this lamp looks new, however
I read some where how to check for vintage clear glass piece by using a black light, I guess the glued seal will shine? This lamp did not glow. I believe I can order a chimney through 'B&P Lamp Supply', Then I'll find a place for this nice oil lamp.

 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 guess you never know what you will find out thrifting.
 
 I would love to hear what you have found thrifting and how you style it in your home. 

 So until my next post...... 

May God Bless You and Your Family,
