Bargain Hunting at the Thrift Store Part II


These are the rest of the items I purchased from my dash to the thrift store.  Everything in both posts, except for two items were purchased at the one shop.

If you missed part one  of my shopping trip, you can see all of the fun finds here



I fell in love with these colors  and the folk art.


This cast iron shell hanger will be going into the bathroom.



 From 2005, a Mermaid Starbucks mug.

 The soft colors and artsy pattern kept calling my name.  When I got home I found that I had two of them.  So cute to hold birdseed in a garden totem.  

 Can anyone pronounce that name on the bottom?

 Three one cup size Fire King baking dishes. 


 A vintage PINK crock!  I love it.



 An art deco candlestick.  It will make a beautiful pedestal for a cake plate.

By tomorrow I'll have a few new unique items!

Every time I see a Starbucks mug I buy it, love them.
The shell hook will look attractive in your Florida home.

Those little Fire King custard dishes are so handy, I use mine, which were Mom's, quite often.

What great finds! I especially love the little saucer. Know what would make it even more perfect? A cupcake sitting in the middle of it! :)

Wishing you a Happy Pink Saturday!

Future Non Scary Trunk or Treat Ideas

Image
We had a Family Fun Night at our church on Wednesday Oct 31 and the public was invited to participate via flyers and signs.  The two hour fun night had several event areas.  In the sanctuary the teens had a fun 10 minute skit they put on every half hour of the evening.  The one side of the church's parking lot had a huge bouncy house and a dozen or so carnival games with prizes and the other side of the church on the parking lot we had a Trunk or Treat.   I participated on the Trunk or Treat event and unfortunately was so busy I didn't get over to the other events for photos. I was able to photograph some of the other decorated trunks while they were setting up to get future ideas.  It was my first time of participating in this kind of event although my grandkids have gone to them in years past.   I charged it up a bit with some extras at the last minute, like lights and some other decorations.   I repurposed my house decor for one ...

Disney World's Polynesian Resort Hotel

When we first arrived at Disney World we took the boat over to the Magic Kingdom.  Mr. Bill remarked, as we passed the Polynesian Resort, he never had any desire to stay there.  It looked boring to him from the outside.  I hadn't thought much about it, but I did like the lit torches when we passed by on the monorail.  I decided this trip, since we had a free day, we would stop in and tour the three hotels on the line.  We toured the Grand Floridian , the Polynesian Resort and the Contemporary Resort From a distance it doesn't look too exciting.  I could understand his lack of enthusiasm.   When we stepped off the monorail however, the entrance was incredibly gorgeous.  The waterfall was something we hadn't noticed as it was somewhat hidden from the view of the passengers riding.  It was framed by colorful blooms and multiply kinds of foliage.  Completely setting the stage for a visit in the South Seas.   Inside ...
