Cottage Style Party & Thrifting!

After laying around for four days with the flu I felt good enough to venture outside.

I only had a couple of vacation days left and I was itching to do some junking! I hopped in my car and drove into town to hit a not-so-local Goodwill and the Habitat for Humanity store next to it.

It was my first visit to a H4H store and I couldn't wait to see what was there. 
It was salvage heaven!

Amidst the old furniture, fixtures, appliances, parts and pieces, I found some gems.

A great wire basket large enough for magazines:

A set of 3 ruby red French Arcoroc goblets:

A salvaged vintage 50's pink bathroom soap dish:

An old pie stand:

Milkglass vases:

A charming yellow basket:

A retro condiment set with teak handle:

At the Goodwill next door, I found these cobalt blue bowls:

and matching ice tea glasses:

Some holiday themed dessert plates:

A milkglass egg:

And a vintage globe on stand:

I was thrilled with my finds and will make the occasional drive to these exciting new thrifting stops. After about 2 hours I grew tired and went home for a flu nap.

I was happy to get out of the house for a short while.

And thrilled with my finds!

Anyone been thrifting lately?

Hello Friends!

So glad you enjoyed my Downton Abbey life!

Though I live in a small cottage, I have yet to find the staff's quarters.

It must be here some where!

Have you found your staff's quarters yet?

Let's see what everyone's been up to…

How gorgeous is Jann's winter kitchen?

Can you believe that chandelier?

Woot!

Drop in to Have a daily Cup of Mrs Olson to see the wintery details of her kitchen. It will chase your winter "blues" away!

I love all the pretty soft furry-ness of this bedroom!

Doesn't it look all snugly and warm?

To see more of this cozy winter bedroom, stop by Tracie's blog Fishtail Cottage!

Hint: she even shares the link to find your own fluffy warm throw and pillows!

This is such a wonderful idea for a winter wreath!

I love the monogram and burlap and toile fabric.
