Thrifty Thursday #28

This week Prince Charming and I stayed in town and went to our usual thrifts. The car overheated a bit on the way home so that added an element of surprise to the outing but in general, it was our usual kind of thrift trip.

I almost left our first stop empty handed. I had poked through all the kitchenware and their table full of random stuff and hadn’t found anything. I had stopped looking at the art in this particular shop months ago because their prices are out of my range. Then when I was walking past the shelf, this painting caught my eye, I was in love. I love the colors and the composition. I was scared to check the price on the back so I closed my eyes up tight and asked Prince Charming to look for me. The price was $3 so it came to live with me.

I also picked up this milk glass vase for $1 for a project that I plan to do. I’m not sure if it is vintage or not but that doesn’t matter for my needs.

Total: $4

Yard Sale Finds

This weekend I was way too tired to go out yard saling. I don’t go out yard saling much anymore either because Prince Charming doesn’t like to get up that early anymore. Luckily, my amazing mom saw some good stuff and picked it up for me. I may have to start yard saling again for these prices.

She picked up two Corelle Spring Blossom hook handled tea cups. I know I have a bunch of these but I always appreciate more.

She also picked up four Pyrex Crazy Daisy mugs. Before she picked these up for me, I only had three Pyrex mugs and one Corelle mug. I definitely need to find more mugs.

She also got a Pyrex Crazy Daisy round butter dish without a lid. I now have three of these and only one lid. The lids are hard to find.

She managed to pick all seven of the pieces up at the amazing price of $2.50 for the lot. I’m excited to have all these new pieces in my collection.

Total: $2.50
