Thrifty Finds

I paid a visit recently to my local Goodwill and found a few sweet little things! I love this lady figurine which I do believe is the top of a pincushion. The little Japan cup and saucer is just as cute as a button!! Also found this embossed pot ~ again I think this may be a Mc Coy!! Also scored these nice restaurant china bowls too.

Sweet pieces of vintage jewelry ~ a pin with lovely baubles and a souvenier bracelet from Washington D.C.

Then on Friday morning I stopped at about 5 or 6 garage sales--and I was rather successful!

These are such fun! Vintage store display pieces for sunglasses! I just wish I had a slew of old glasses to display on these!*! I paid a whoppin' 25cents each for these cuz the lady was cleaning out and wanted to get rid of them!! Happy day!!

At another sale I found this awesome old paper umbrella! I LOVE the pretty graphic blue & white!



She also had some lovely china pieces ...

wonderful biscuit tin with great color and a lovely old comb!

I found a few other things, but I'm saving all the white stuff for my next White Wednesday post!


But for today, I'm joining Linda at Coastal Charm for Nifty, Thrifty Tuesday!

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Thriftin'!!!

Friday Morning Finds and Frustration!

I only had time this morning to hit 3 sales. Two were duds and one was pretty darn good! I managed to find some cool stuff at this one sale and the prices weren't bad either! Got these colorful pool balls! These work great as bowl fillers or in a big basket! I also found these Gurley candles, some are in better shape than others, but still cute!I especially like the turkeys!

~ A pretty Germany cup and saucer and old clock keys~

I think this is my favorite find of the day! I love this amazing feedsack quilt!

It's in excellent condition and has the most adorable patterns and colors!

I collect vintage feedsack and hope to make myself a yo-yo quilt someday! Maybe when I'm old and gray and have nothin' better to do!!

They also had this gorgeous buffet mirror ~ has the best frame and I love the etching in the center section!


So, not bad for one morning outing ~~ 1 outa 3 ain't bad!

And now for the frustrating part! I'm so mad I could just #%@!

For some reason Hotmail has been messin' with my email account! They say it's for security reasons. I can't get in it and I can't change anything, so I'm about ready to scream! So until further notice, please refrain from using the email address I've provided until I can get this thing straightened out or come up with a new one! If you need to contact me, just leave me a comment, I do check them quite often! Well, let's hope for brighter tomorrows!
