Seen Around

Every year ,when I go to see the lung doctor,

I make a point of stopping at the Saint Vinnie thrift shop ,you know just for kicks!

The pickings are usually pretty slim. It is situated in a very poor neighborhood.

Here's what I saw:

 A vintage nativity, I'm guessing 60's or 70's.

 This I've never seen! A 12 days of Xmas glass set!

I nearly bought it, but I could hear my better (or not) half say:

What? we don't have enough glasses????

 This one looked like a cross between DIY and a vintage liquor bottle.

Last but not least a Pyrex Flameware without its handle.

Just what happened to it? I guess will never know!

Stay tuned for pictures of the tacky stuff I got!

I just couldn't help myself!!!

After work this afternoon I had the chance to go to Renaissance for a bit of thrift!

If you're a regular reader you probably remember how I have a love/hate relationship with that place....

The pickings are often of the slim kind!

But tonight with my eagle eye I was able to sink my thrifty claws in these treasures!

 This crazy heatwave was momentarily side swept by these lovelies...
I know I made promises...no more exterior light bulbs....But how could I resist? Hoe could I resist Canadian Outdoor Lights????

Check out the funky shape!

I can't wait to try these! I got a whole bunch for $2.99.

If you know of a name for this disease please feel free to tell me!

I have a vintage ashtray sickness, we don't smoke. I love these!

I figure this one is for cigars.

It might go in the store.

And I kinda went nuts when I spotted this.....I knew Dan would love it.

 And I was right!

  Which bar ware lover wouldn't want this beauty?

And just who is Richard?

 This was a promo Jim Beam bottle from 1968

It will look great with the guys.

I also got a milk glass cup but it didn't look good on film, so that is for next time.

Thrifting is so much fun!

Now please send me some Pyrex....please,please,please! LOL

Have a good night and stay cool!
