My hubby noticed something interesting in the newspaper, a local thrift shop was having a 50% off sale, and that sounded like a good deal to me. While Thade was busy at school, Dylan and I were having fun shopping for some good deals.
A find that I couldn’t pass up was the retro Brunswick Bowling bag, and purple marbled bowling ball. I picked both of them up for just $3.00. The bowling ball doesn’t quite fit my hand, I could always have it re-drilled, but the bag would make an awesome diaper bag in the mean time.
We walked through the store, and made our way to the dishes, and then I found one of my favorites on sale…
It is hard for me to resist clear glassware. I found this little candy dish for $1.00, and the crystal bowl was too good to pass up for $1.50.
I snapped up the 8 piece hostess set for $2.00.
The clear trays had to come home with me for just $.50 a piece.
I had a lot of fun shopping at the thrift store, and I’m so excited with my new (to me ) finds too. Now I just need to host an afternoon tea, so I can show off all of my new hostess dishes.
Great finds! Love that glassware too!
Blessings!
Those are great finds! I’m a lover of clear glass, too, and love to show them off! Your cookies will look gorgeous on those trays!
Thanks Marva! I love shopping thrift shops, and you can’t beat 50% off 🙂 I’ve already used the candy dish to display some Hershey Kisses.
Thanks Mimi! That is cool that you love clear glass too, I’m a big fan too. I just loved the little trays, and I think we might use them as the dessert center piece at the Valentine’s dinner 🙂
