Thrifty finds
I had some time for thrifting today. I managed to come home with lots of treasures!
I couldn't believe it when I saw a shelf full of this beautiful milkglass. I couldn't resist and bought them all! For $2 each, I think they were a bargain.
The vase might not be anything special, and with its cheesy distressing, it's probably pretty new and not a vintage piece, but I just adore the green! I think it'll look great with big, blooming roses or peonies.
I've been searching for a big bowl like those two little ones for the longest time, so I had to snatch them up. Hopefully a big one will be right around the corner. (How sweet will they look filled with ripe summer cherries?)
I hit the jackpot on glass candy jars for sure. I think they were each $2 or $3. The one all the way on the right reminds me of one my grandma used to have. I know they're going to look great on the table at the shower I'm hosting for my sister in a few weeks.
$1 basket. Yes, it is a super ugly, tacky pink. But after yesterday's project, I know I will love it sprayed heirloom white with painted numbers.
Now this one may not be a thrift store find, but it was a bargain nonetheless. 4 bucks at Target. Woo hoo end of summer clearance! It's going to look great filled with mason jars and flowers.
