Thrift Share - Stocking Up for the Holidays

I've been searching for new merchandise to add to the shop for the holidays, in addition to redecorating the house.  I've also started to expand my selling venues and have listed some items on eBay & Craigslist.  Heres a little of what I've found the past few weeks!

1st up, a little assortment of goodies.  

L to R: A pair of Mid Century lamps, Vintage Peacock Purse, Gray "Mio" Tray by Marianne Nilson, Miners Rooms in Minerature, Mikasa Serving Piece Set, Catherine Holm Bowl & Italy Planter Pot

I'm in love with the Rooms in Miniature 1960s "Doll House" furniture. Every time I open the box I find another surprise.  The box says the set only contains the dining room set, but I believe the whole house is in this box as there are pieces already built from every room.

In addition to the goodies above, I've found some great vintage clothing and accessories.

The thrift down the street sells scarves by the bag, it's a crapshoot but sometimes there are some great items in the bunch.  Luck was on my side this time with Vintage Vera, Chanel, Calvin Kline & Echo.

L to R: Vera Red White & Blue, Vera Blue & White, Vera 2 Tone Blue, Chanel on Mannequin, Echo Green Strip & Large view of Red & Gold Chanel

Check out these great holiday dresses!  

L to R: 2 Piece Black Lace Dress, 1950's Black & Gold Embroidery Dress, 1970s Gold Sleeveless Dress, 1980s Navy off the shoulder Sequins Dress by A.J. Bari

Last but not least, some great linens!  This set of 4 Vera napkins would be perfect for the holidays, but are so versatile that you could use them any season.

  I snagged 2 of these cozy Hudson Bay 4 point Wool blankets, they have some moth holes which is a bummer... 

but the 2 of these amazing Vintage Faalberg of Holland wool blankets are perfect!!! 1 has already sold on ebay & the other listing will be up tonight!

Well, that's a rundown of what I've found! Can't wait to check out all of the other goodies you've uncovered so I'll be linking up with Apron Thrift Girl, A Living Space, and Sir Thrift A Lot!

Thrift Share - Fabric & Lace

 A quick business trip to Phoenix consumed the early part of my week, and I didn't get out to do hardly any hunting over the weekend...but I did manage to find a few goodies.

SOLD

Who doesn't love a Quaker Lace Tablecloth?  I actually came across two of these at a shop, but the 2nd was in such bad shape I decided to leave it behind.  I opted instead for this beauty.  

SOLD

It's not Quaker Lace, but wonderfully made none the less.

It's been a while since I'd picked up any fabrics...but when I found these 1980s Fabric Sample Squares this week (at 50% Off = $1.50 each) I decided to pick up a few sets.  There are some really neat patterns & the samples seemed to come from a Lazarus store.  KOJO still makes high-end fabrics for the Restaurant & Hotel industry.

  

I've blogged about my never ending Decorating Dilemma in my Den, and just can't seem to find the right pillows.  Since these are pretty large samples (24 X 24), I'm considering mixing and matching a few of the patterns to make some new Pillows for our couch. 

  

As usual, I couldn't resist a few books....

Westwind is huge & signed by both Author Walter Cronkite & Artist Ray Ellis

and I also learned that Lucy likes books too.  I wasn't paying attention when I was photographing some of my new goodies, and guess who started chewing on this Ottoman Empire in Drawings book. 

Oh well ~ the pages weren't ruined so maybe I'll commit a mortal book sin & individually frame & sell the prints (I typically wouldn't break a book apart to do this).

I hope everyone is having a lovely Father's Day Weekend & had lots of Thrifty Finds over the week.  Once again, I'm linking up to Her Library Adventures Flea Market Finds, and Costal Charms Nifty Thrifty Tuesday so be sure to check out all the other found treasures there...I know I will!
