A Few Thrift Store Finds

I was not going to the Thrifty Store this week
I have enough "stuff"!
Oh, but I just couldn't stay away. . .
And there is always room for more "stuff".
So here is my junk  "stuff" I found. .
 What if. . . I had not gone, I would have missed this beautiful
Silver dish
And just look at the plate!
 Oh, heaven forbid if I would have missed this beautiful plate.
 And the purple vase. . . . for my dear friend Sue.
She loves colored glass.
I just had to give it to her.
 The amber hob-nail candy dish. . . I couldn't pass that up..
The black vase I know I will use it somewhere, sometime.
And the amber-ish vase, let me tell ya, the picture does not do it justice.
It is beautiful
I simply can not miss a week  going to the DI (thrift store)
I am afraid I will miss something. . . someone else will get it.
I think it is the thrill of the hunt. . .
Just finding that tresures. . . .
And
I can always make room for "STUFF"
I am linking this to:

I will have more thrift store finds to show you, that's for sure!

    I really am envious of all the wonderful things that my Stateside blogging friends are able to find at Thrift stores, imagine if you had stayed home and missed all these lovely items.

    Hi Karie,

    Boy do I hear you and relate on this post! I have to stay away as much as I can now because I'm not working, but it is thrilling to score big. You did great on the things you found.

    Thanks for stopping by yesterday,

    Kathy

    OOO, you did, indeed, find some amazing things. They are all pretty. Good for you.

    I went yesterday and came home with an arm load of "stuff". :)
    Ever so often, I go thru my hutch and other "dish stash" places and take a load BACK to the thrift store. Sometimes, I am afraid I am going to buy back my own STUFF...Ahhhh, but ain't life grand!!

    Hi Karie, I'm going to say right off that I'm jealous! The last few times I've gone to the thrift store there was nothing enticing. I think everyone has stopped cleaning their homes right now :(.

    You are sooo right! Just when I think I cannot bring another thing into my house, I find a deal that I can't pass up, and then I somehow find room for it in my home. You got some really pretty treasures. Love the plate, and that silver dish is gorgeous. thank you for linking to Favorite Things. laurie
