Thrift store finds: Tuesday


After a long hiatus, I went out thrifting again this week. Here are my finds:

tin cup, $.39. I just liked the look of it.

old aluminum "Short'ning and ice cream spoon" $ .99. Love that spelling! This will go with my other vintage utensils.






Old yellow Pyrex dish, $2.00.

Vintage printed dishtowel, $ .99
















I think this is my favorite find of the day. This was $8.99. It looks like a window, but I think that it is actually a frame with molding added to the front to make it look like a window. I have been wanting to go to the architectural salvage place to get an old window to do this exact treatment to. I want to hang it by my front door. However, those old windows aren't cheap, and by the time I had mirrors cut to fit, I'd be in for WAY more than $8.99. I think I may paint this and distress it, or use a crackle finish or something fun. Then once the house painters come next week, I can hang it up! I'm pretty excited about this one!
