★ THRIFTASAURUS ★
This was another week I didn't rock it too much. I had a thrifting trip planned out this week, but it didn't pan out the way I planned (does anything, really?). I found a few things at the first thrift, which did it for me. I'm in love with the ice bucket & the table runner. I don't know the area very well we were in, the BF does & I was trying to get a grasp on where he was going & he skipped over one of the thrifts on my list. I was a bit ticked off.
My first buy all week were these vintage Daisy Lady glasses/tumblers. I bought them because I found them hilarious. I would have loved to meet the woman who had this set of glasses. I haven't been able to find anything like them online, if you know something, let me know. I am also looking to sell this set. If you are interested, let me know. I can't take a fab pic, but stay tuned.. give me a few weeks. I had planned on keeping them, but want to raise some money to buy the table I have my eye on.
Another ones of these, very adorbs! I can't not bring one of these home.
If you are interested in purchasing this, let me know.
Cute ass tea towel, no? I ♥ dogs. If I ever won the lotto (I do play - sometimes), I would open some kind of dog sanctuary..
I wanted this tea towel, but I think I may be selling it to pay for the table I want.

Anyways, I have 2 Christmas table runners in the same/similar colours & fabric. Now I have an Easter. FAB! Even the BF had nice things to say about it & that don't happen very often!
I bought these little NOEL choir boys that were in a grab bag. I had thought that one of these guys were the missing choir boy Erica from Pyrex Thrifter Sisters had broken... but, upon further investigation when I got internet access, it wasn't. This NOEL set isn't even that rare - I will still complete it though! Ambitious! & a Santa mug.
JUST LOOK AT THIS ICE BUCKET!
It is an ice bucket, right? Not sure if someone changed their mind or the shelf putter outter thought it was a planter since I found it with the planters... when I'm in a rush, I usually don't check that aisle, but I am in the market for planters for Spring, but nope! Too hard to find something when your looking for it. You all know what I mean.
I went to my first estate sale.
Alone.
Alone.
I was on my way to the doctors office, which is 2 city blocks away & off my road was an estate sale sign. I went over. Always wondered what those houses looked like inside (pretty dumb). Not sure if the place was insanely, completely picked over by 9:30AM, but there was nothing there really. Some old postcards, I picked these 2 out for a quarter. I think the person was downsizing, I imagine old & can't climb the stairs anymore as each room was on a different floor & all the furniture was out of the house.
* note, I am from Windsor, ON.. which is why I bought the postcard.
If you are in Toronto & would like to accompany me to future estate sales, let me know! I need a friend like you.
Anyways, hope you all had a satisfying thrifting week! Can't wait to see what you all have found. Have a great week. Join up below with your latest post with your second hand finds.

love the choirboys , keep them saying NOOOO
ReplyDeleteOne too expensive flea market today. Same nice old sweet ladies selling things reasonably, rest of the many other sellers stuff was ok/nice/fine but too pricey for a reseller. Bought a bag of mixed wood/plastic spools from the sweet old lady for $5 which was good. She had stopped sewing and was clearing out her thread. Found a tasty bakery and bought a cinnamon bun. Cold, windy and fresh today. Thanks for Thriftasaurs.

You found some really good stuff this week. I don't know anything about the Daisy Lady glasses, sorry, but they awesome.
ReplyDeleteThanks for thinking of me with those choir boys. I think I have the ones you found. The ones I have that I am missing the letter on are pretty rare. I have never seen them anywhere since I bought them. Love that ice bucket. Don't sell it! It's way too awesome.
ReplyDeleteWhen you win the lotto, Hanna & I will volunteer with your dog sanctuary. We are both dog obsessed too and often talk about have a rescue or just a business where we pet and play with dogs all day.
