Thrifted Treasures. . .

Hello my friends, You know how much I love finding treasures!

I've mentioned before that my eye Dr's office is right by a thrift shop.  Well, I had an appt. Monday so I had to stop!

I found a few things that were as cute as a bug. . .

 
 
I love enamelware and although these aren't old, they will be so fun for summer!
A bargain at $.50 cents each.
 
The pan is by Gooseberry Patch and I love that it has a couple of chips.
 
 
 
I also found another fun pin to add to my new collection.  I didn't realize how similar it was to the one that I already had, jjust a lighter pink. It's hard to tell, but the dark pink one has a lady bug on one of it's petals.  I found it a while ago at an estate sale.
 
 
 
Some of my finds were a little bit rustic. . .
 
Another enamel piece for $1, again not old; just made to look like it is; and an old butcher block for $2.
It was quite scratched and weathered, but after a good scrubbing I rubbed it with grapeseed oil.
 
*here's a tip I learned:  Don't soak butcher block!  lol!  I stuck this in the sink with water and bleach to sanitize it.  When I took it out one edge totally pulled away and it started to crack.  I tried to bend the edge back thinking I could wood glue it, but it snapped off.  I just pulled that entire piece off and it seems to be usuable.
 
 
Some of my finds were just sweet:
Like this, ( I think) vintage bird planter.
I paid a big whopping $.75 cents for it.

 
 
Some of it was a bit fancy. . .
 
5 Noritake china salad plates for $10.
 
 
A red transferware gravy boat for $5.
Not vintage, it had a Home Goods sticker on the bottom, but it's perfect to add to my collection!
 
 
 
A hand painted saucer for $1.  It matched my other recent find hand painted plates so well.
 
 
 
I found a few items that were just useful:
 
Some green sheet moss, a string of pearls, rustic fasteners, and a plaid lined basket. 
 
I love plaid for Winter.
 
The liner is removable and it's a very sturdy basket with handles.
 
 
 
Well, there's my recent finds.
But did I ever hit the jack pot yesterday.
 
I found something fabulous that was white, a little something blue,  and another red and white treasure!  swoon!!
 
Just a little tease. . .
 
I'll be sharing them soon!
 
hugs,
Jann 
 
I will be sharing with these fun parties:
