Ahhh the power of Negotiation. I had the day off and was on the prowl. I went to 4 new thrift stores and a yard sale (yes, odd on a Thursday isn't it?). I was quite the negotiator today.
Here's what I picked up at mt first stope, the yard sale.
2 basket fulls for... drum roll please... $5. Yes yes, for all of it... here are a few more pictures.
I love the one with the lid, don't you?
I got 3 of these... I thought they would be cute to use as canisters on a kitchen counter
Such a cute little bottle
loved this lil guy too...
5 of these
AND this neat chipped metal basket. I also got 8 matching milk glasses. I couldn't believe it! YAY!
The next stop was Salvation Army. Remember how I have been looking for a lantern like fixture for my dining room? Well....
Here we go. The tag said $20. I asked for a discount and the guy said he could do $15.... I asked if he could do $13, SOLD! $13!
Spray it black and we're in business!
Another Thrift Store. This find made me SO happy!
An old window. Asking price $20, I got is for $12. SWEET!
I came home and got right to painting....
HAHA! This is my lantern hanging from a tree branch... oh my.....
Of course, I had to stop and get some flowers to use some of my new finds
Such a nice treat. What a wonderful day off! And well worth the $33
