Thrift finds

I think I'm going to make thrift finds a regular little feature, just a break from outfits and shop updates to show the lovely little things you can find secondhand. Finding a castoff item for some reason is worlds more interesting than shopping for new things, and fills the space I live in with lots of stories about how the items were discovered. Although I do try to be picky, and when new things come in I like old things to go out, to avoid the whole hoarding issue I like to watch on television. As much as I want to collect, I need to find a balance.

For now I've decided having a zoo of metal animals would be a good investment of time and money... so thats what I'm hunting for. My novelty string light obsession has calmed down, as I have more than my electricity bill needs.


Its a box!


The bird illustrations are going to make such good wall art. (25 cents for both books..)

Got these yesterday. Leather, Made in the USA.

Gourd candles for the season.
