Despite all the "Baby Stuff" swimming in my head, and all the 'joys' of pregnancy that goes along with it (ladies, I know YOU know what I mean ;-). I still managed to squeeze in a little bit of thrifting/shopping in between and here are my latest scores...
 |
| $12.50 |
I could not pass this one up, and for that price, I'd be crazy to right?
 |
| Here it is in our entry :-) |
 |
| $3.50 for the pair |
Despite it's imperfections (it's got a lot of knicks on it's mane), the weight, material and over-all beauty of these bookends are just what I need for our growing library and book collection.

| $3.50 |
You know I'm a sucker for brass, so this babies have to go home with me.
 |
| $67.00 |
I guess I haven't mentioned that I have a small and growing collection of these beautiful and fine porcelain pieces, I have 8 so far and this is my 9th. I have one given to me as a gift and others I've also paid very reasonable prices for (from Ebay and Antique stores).
I never buy them full price or new, the hunt is what makes collecting these funner for me!
Last but certainly not the least, TJ Maxx clearance never fails to surprise me.
The original is on sale here already...
 |
| Original Price was $295 for King Duvet |
 |
| Got mine for $49 |
 |
| Love this fish scale/rainbow pattern and I love how subtle the pink is in it too! |
How about you, any great scores lately? Do share away!
Have a Great week!
VEL
Would love to hear your thoughts! Please share away...
You found some really nice things, Vel! I love your umbrella holder. Blue and white is a favorite of mine. I recently found a task lamp for $3. I couldn't believe it was there and no one scooped it up before me.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds! Have a great week:)
ReplyDeleteGREAT finds, Vel!!!! Have a wonderful week!!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteLove, love all your finds. The LLadro piece is fabulous. You know the factory is in Spain where I grew up. My mom always made a few trips to their shop every year. :) Have a great week. Hugs, Maria
ReplyDeleteThe brass gets me every time! And I love the umbrella pot! I love bargain hunting!
ReplyDeleteGreat finds! I agree that the hunt makes collecting more fun! I've found some really good ironstone pieces lately. I got 3 dinner plates and 5 cups/saucers at Goodwill during half-off day a couple weekends ago. I've also found a couple tureens at another smaller thrift store the past couple times I've gone.
ReplyDeleteWow, you did find some great treasures. I especially love the umbrella stand, it is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds, I love those book ends...gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteYou got some great deals, Vel! I love the umbrella holder (and the ghost chair in that pic!) I love to hunt for a bargain. :)
