Some Thrifting Goodies...

Hello Sweet Ladies of Blogland...
So glad you stopped by...
I have lots of Goodies to show you
that I got while Thrifting a lil bit today...



Everything you see on the desk
is what I hauled home today...
with the exception of the embroidered runner.

Not sure what to do with all of it,
but I know there's something good hidden in there!
I am especially fond of the ceramic planters...
and the pink floral fan~shaped dish.


I also am loving on the white candle holders
hanging on the wall... now I need some pink candles...

Any suggestions on the three ornate gold frames?
The back is marked Made in Italy, and the florals
are fabric with padding underneath...
I'd be grateful for any ideas for them!


I think I got really, really good deals...

Milk Glass Open Lace Pedestal Compote ~ $4
Ceramic Yellow Star Light Switch Cover ~ 50 cents
Ceramic Egg with Lilacs ~ 50 cents
Ceramic Egg with Flowers ~ 50 cents

It looks like you had a good time! Your blog looks great! I still dont know how to make a banner and I see you do...How do I learn? I wish I had more time to do some thrifting though I try to hit yard sales in the summertime. All those treasures out there!!! Melinda

Hi Pearl,
Your blog is so nice! I enjoyed reading it all and will be stopping in frequently! It is so fun to go thrifting and you did so good on your last trip! I loved reading all about the lilacs and how sweet your Mom always had a vase on them on your birthday. My husband when we were dating would bring me a big vase of them for me right before I went to work and I felt so very loved all day long smelling and looking at those beautiful lilacs! I have three bushes now. One is a dark purple, a light purple and a friend from work gave me a small piece from a white one last fall which has made it through the winter and looks like it might grow up big and strong! I hope! Just something about those lilacs! Have a lovely day. Your new thrifting blog friend, Mar Ann

Well now I'd say all of that was a bargain!! I used to have those same white wire candleholders but I definitely paid for than that. Good job Pearl.
