Thrift Store Tuesdays

today we went to our favorite thrift store. usually when we go there, there are so many great things we can't decide which to take home. today, that was not the case. i think because of the holidays things are a bit slow. i am willing to bet they pick up once everyone has their new years resolutions in place to clean things out...

despite the lack of tons of things we would love to have there were a few good finds today.


find #1 was this christmas tree dish. it was so very retro and cool i could not pass it up. yes, i do realize this was someone ceramic project from the 70s... but it matches my stuff :)



find #2. a beautiful and very large juicer. who juices things? i don't know. but it was $2.99 and so pretty. if i make homemade lemonade once it will be worth it.


find #3. theeeeeeeee best find of the day. at least in the opinion of the graphic designer. this set of 24 vintage christmas cards had to be mine. aaaaand i love them. now the question is cherish them forever in all their vintagey goodness or use them?

cherish them forever like any good graphic designer would, obviously ;)

I LOVE thrift store shopping! Your #2 cracked me up...if I had a nickel for every completely random item I've picked up at a thrift store, I'd be rich.
