Adventures in Thrifting

What better way to
spend your weekend???

My mom & I discovered a new place to scavenge this weekend!

Adventures in thrifting begins with a warning!?!?

Warning: The following photo contains major swoony goodness! If fainting occurs please lay down with a cup of tea & rest the remainder of the day!

You should know I did refrain
& didn't actually purchase the whole wall of glorious-ness!
{snicker}
...well I did leave a little bit for others ;)


~this wants to be mine~

~I found most of my treasures in their shop~

~Soo cute!~

I just realized while editing these photos that I never
went back to purchase these tweeterific gals!
Did you see the price!?!
{kicking myself for this}

~Upstairs in the little hut~

There were several of these little shacks scattered about & then a few larger antique shops. Not sure what the little "village 'o shops" is even named?? I must find out & report back!

I have a thing for ancient chippy paint & rust spots & verdigris
...the more corroded the better!!


To quote a friend of mine, I love the vintage dust & rust because "love corrodes all" & something about romance blah blah blah... I stopped listening after he pointed out the vintage "toe-jam" (as he called it) hahahaha (No, his derogatory adjectives did nothing to dissuade my love!)


I hope your weekend was loaded with treasures
& you spoiled yourself rotten!

Whatever were you birds up to??

PS: This sign made me laugh soo hard
...would be awesome hanging over The Boys bedroom door ;)

Thrifted Treasures

Feast your eyes on the treasures....

The loot I scored, pictured as promised!
My mom finds the best presents!

Here's a closer look...
The compact opens up twice!

The top opens & there is ancient blush & a mirror. Where that little puff is, it opens again, probably for powder {squeals!}

Check out the detail on this....
Any idea what it is??
I didn't have a clue!
But you open it up.....
It's a personal ashtray!
#swoonyantiquesmakemewanttostartsmokingagain!

& these are glove holders!

G L O V E
H O L D E R S...
because you wouldn't want to just shove them in your pocket, they must dangle delicately off the side of your purse by a precious chain! {swoon}

I was born in the wrong era!

Let's all bring back gloves & hats & delicate ashtrays ;)

Hope you birds are having a lovely weekend!

*hugs*
