Mid-Week Thrifting

I haven't stopped in the Super Skanky Thrift in a while so I pried myself out of my office at lunch time on Wednesday and cruised over. Not a big haul but I was happy with the finds.

Sans the rubber grapes, there were about 150 pieces of vintage millinery fruit in this pile.

A pretty milk glass vase and how could I resist a saucer with flowers AND birdies!

I haven't decided if I will keep this aluminum basket for my collection or pass it along. I am running out of space for my collection and this one is pretty large.
Today is all about getting some decorating done and finishing up the little bit of shopping I do. Have a Merry Saturday!

Beth Leintz said...: I'm still laughing about the Super Skanky Thrift. Is that really the name, or is that just what you call it. LOL!; December 13, 2014 at 4:10 PM
Betsy@My Salvaged Treasures said...: I'm jealous of your mid week treasure hunt. Love that aluminum basket, I seem to remember having one of those a few years ago, but I let it go for the same reason...too big.; December 13, 2014 at 4:51 PM

The Junque Seeker said...: Great finds! I have a clear vase like your milk glass one. I scored a small milk glass vase today that I didn't have, so that made me happy. Love the fruit!; December 13, 2014 at 7:41 PM
Art and Sand said...: Midweek thrifting - you are really going to run out of space if you keep going multiple times each week.

I love the aluminum basket.

Is the store really called Super Skanky Thrift?; December 16, 2014 at 9:26 AM
