Would You Buy It Wednesday

I'm revamping my blog and hopefully my readers will participate. Each day I will have a different theme. These themes will be weekly. I will try to blog every day. Stay tuned for each day's theme.

Today is Would You Buy It Wednesday. I will post an item I either saw or bought from the thrift store. Let me know if you would have bought it or left it there.

Today's item is this funky plastic lamp I bought. It was about 4 times the price of other lamps in the thrift store but I had to have it. Sometimes you want things that don't make sense but that's the fun of thrifting.

Would you have bought it or left it there? Leave a comment and let me know.

Church Sale Finds

Today and tomorrow is one of the biggest church sales in our city. I found a few things for resale and some things for myself. The sale was definitely huge but the crowd made it overwhelming. It was annoying trying to walk down aisles when people were pushing strollers and misbehaving children were running all over the place.

I was hoping to find some Pyrex. I don't know if it was sold before I got there or there wasn't much donated. They had two woodland casserole dishes but I didn't get them. I did find The Cookie jar though.

There wasn't a huge selection of blankets but I was able to find 2 vintage ones. I also found 2 Snuffles. The pink record holder was bought at an estate sale.

How cool is this Ziggy phone? Im a little irritated because you can't make a phone call unless you smash down the buttons and hear them beep. I wish they had taped does not work properly on it when they donated it. I probably would have passed and bought the Coke cup phone instead.

We went to two estate sales afterwards. At one I found the pink record holder above and a 25" Henry dog.

At the second estate sale, I found a Lite Brite. It's from the 90's and has a plug.

I convinced my sister to go to a thrift store. She doesn't like this one because it smells bad. I swear someone peed in the back room. It was pretty bad. However, I like this store because if you ask, they sometimes will take an offer. I bought this dresser to use as a tv stand. I told them I didn't want the mirror. (which I found out later was a huge mistake) It is stamped Kroeher.

The spot on the photo is from my camera. The dresser is in pretty good shape. Of course my hubby doesn't like it but that's too bad. I really can't return it and no one in town would pay what it's worth.

Thrifty Finds

It's been awhile since I posted a finds post. I've been driving my friends crazy posting my finds on Facebook.

This was a ceiling fixture. My husband turned it into a table lamp for me.

I sold my bookcases and bought this bakers rack and corner shelf. I found the head vase at Goodwill.

Yesterday, I dropped off some things at the consignment shop and found these owls. See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil.

I've always wanted one of these lamps. It's actually pink.

I also picked up this vintage foot stool that doesn't match anything and the area rug.

Some Finds

I found two book cases this past week. Not that I needed them but the price was to good to pass up.

The first one is pressed wood but I have a matching one so I felt I needed to get this one. It is missing the top glass though.

The second one is vintage with sliding glass doors. It came from Goodwill and I was surprised the price was so low.

Ive always wanted a hand. Don't ask me why. I got this awhile ago along with the owl ring.

This child's jewelry box is for sale in my eBay store. I thought it was cute.

A few days ago, I picked up these flower frogs. I really like the cage looking ones. I found the elf on a pillow in a bargain bag. I was surprised because the thrift store usually has these under their glass counter.

And of course, another set of Pyrex. These look like they have never been used.
