Thrift Shop Goodies

I live to shop at trift stores, yard sales, and flea markets. Another man's garbage is my treasure, or future art assemblage. I'm so green!

I found this retro canister set in someones garbage (I have no shame) and I use it in my bathroom to hold cosmetics and hair products.




I found this retro kitchen cabinet in the garbage as well. I just gave it a good wash and voila!




I love this old cookie tin. What beautiful Magnolias.



This is supposed to be for fresh flower arrangements but I thought it would be great for home made potpourri.




I've been hoping to find one of these antique photo folders ever since I saw one on "Spark Your Imagination". I was thrilled when I came across this one in a place called "Beyond the Blue Box".





Tiny bottles for my endless collection. They are destined to become pendants.



Who can't use a toast holder?



This etched mirror is now on my vanity.



When I bought this mirror my daughter said I reminded her of the "Little Mermaid".




I use this pink bucket for compost.



My silver tea pot -



and lovely tea cups -





and finally the spoons.




Kitty here holds toothpicks for the snack plate. How whimsical!



These are wonderful glass coasters with crocheted covers.



I love this cup and saucer with room for cookies, a cupcake, or a cucumber sandwich with the crust cut off.
