Thriftasaurus #111


Thriftasaurus CXI

How are you all? How is everything in secondhand shopping land? It's still alright around here... 

I bought this hand keychain. It was 49cents. I also bought that lovely orange retro treasure box. I posed it with my retro scrapbook... my favourite scrapbook I own, I think! 


I got 2 & a half pairs of these vintage Rosti utensils, which were made in Denmark. Don't the orange ones match my new Catherineholm pot perfectly (lol, I don't know if I will ever get tired of showing this pot off...). Anyways, these were pretty cheap ($1.49) & not all chopped up with dents & stuff like a lot of plastic items I come across. 



Put these together. I really don't know how many sets of salt & pepper shakers I've got, especially since I have so much stuff packed away. These need a good cleaning.


The very tiny bit of thrift store vintage Christmas (don't think I'll find very much this year). 



Kneehuggers! I bought these when I was in the states last week. & isn't the one in the shoe adorbs? Antique market buys... cheap.. the larger one chimes.


These I bought for my instagram or eBay sales. .. however... not including until I get used to USPS. 


& lastly, from an antique market, this 1959 Holt Howard candlestick holder... only $3 because of a teeny chip on the backside. 


Lastly, some Vernors cups! Wanted to pay homage to Windsor/Detroit area & well couldn't afford what they wanted for their Boblo merch... so these were the right price!


I am cleaning out my Pyrex collection, just really need duplicates, not like 8 or 10. I think my hoard might start to cause problems in my relationship (I think it already is). It's a bit hard to sell locally on Craigslist, people who check it already have all the common crap!

  3. You just keep showing off that Catherineholm as much as you want to! It's super amazing and I for one will never get bored of seeing it. It looks awesome with your utensils too!

    Weeding out my Pyrex collection too. I don't even think I want duplicates!

  4. I would show that gorgeous bowl every chance I got, it is worthy! :) Looks great with the orange utensils. Sweet kneehuggers. Is vintage Christmas hard to find for you? It is getting that way for me too.

    Joining in with my fun hankie find. Thanks!

  5. I think there comes a time we all have to weed out the Pyrex - we only need so much!!!!

    You know I love the knee huggers - the shoe one is so cute and so different.

    It's been pretty well Christmas junk so far at the thirfts, hoping for at least a couple of beauties to pop up!!

  8. I am so jealous of your kneehuggers. I've only found one, so far this Fall. I found a bright pink one that still had the made in Japan sticker on it's back.
