Hello! For today's Friday post, I thought I'd photograph some recent finds from my thrift store hunts. I used to shop at thrift stores all the time, before I realized there was a difference between a thrift store and an antique store. Lately though, the thrift around here has been really bad. I haven't been able to find hardly anything at thrift stores! I recently went to a couple around here and hit the jackpot ;)
I got the wire desk basket for .58 cents and the small little drawer for $1.99. I have that exact mini drawer from the antique market, but I $13 :/ Oh well, now I have 2! I found all those brass items from another thrift store for around $2-$3. I love the horse head clip. Okay, I didn't find that at a thrift store - but I still thought it was a good find so I included it. The little chess set is cool because it says "made in france" at the bottom. Got the little camera for $1 buck.
So I guess I still believe in thrift stores... if you search hard enough, you'll find some treasures amongst all the junk ;) We're in Portland for the weekend! I'm going to hit up some sales tomorrow, I'm really excited. Hope you have a sweeeeet weekend, friends!
27 hello's:

Have a great weekend in P-town Danni! Love the way you've styled these items and your finds are truly incredible!

So cute! Love all the brass. Which ones did you go to? I found a great one on Commonwealth in Fullerton that's a church-run one that's only open 3 days a week. But I've only had misses lately. :(
I love everything you got. It's so fun to go thrifting. there's such an eclectic variety of things- some good and some not so good. haha!
Have fun in PDX! Enjoy the coffee and all the hipsters.
I too have the same little brass box, a thrift store find for me as well.
Nice job thrifting!
I love the lil camera!

I've been having horrible luck with my local thrift stores these days too! It looks like you found some really amazing things so I guess there is still hope!

I looove thrift stores! I find all sorts of great props I use for my food photography, and I buy used books and other housewares and trinkets too! A great way to spend an afternoon. :)
A great thrift find makes my day. Maybe even week! I love the horsey :)

Thrift shops are mint! I always find awesome stuff!
I love a good thrift outing! Good things are hard to find around here- but sometimes, you get lucky!
