Frugal Firday. This Week's Thrifting Finds.

Happy Friday everybody!! Just wanted to share my thrifting loot with you for this week. It was 50% off Wednesday at the GW (that's the Goodwill, for those of you who are not familiar with my abbreviations).
Once again, I scored BIG TIME! I spent $11.25 for everything in the pics, with the exception of the FREE Manzanita branch I found in the back parking lot of one of may favorite antique stores. It was a cast off. I was happy to throw it in the back of my car!

Here's what I got this week...

Yes, I got 2 really cute blazers!! Not to mention the FAB dishes, etc. I'll give you the details...

 Cute little birds, can't remember exactly what I paid, but a buck or two. Ironstone creamer was purchased at antique store earlier this week for only $2.99! I got it with the peach Fire King lustrewear creamer in the pic above (far right), for $2.99 as well. My Grandmother had this pattern of Fire King dishes, (Laurel) and I have a few pieces that I have collected. I hope to own an entire set someday, just for sentimental reasons. 
 Vintage wine bottle $1.50, and cute green plates. (The plates I bought at the antique store, so they were not part of the GW purchase, but I still got a good deal on them.)
 This ca-ute vintage vase was only $1.25!!! Yep, that's right!
 Small vintage leaf dish, just 49 cents...more to add to my white dish cabinet! I will mix it with my ironstone.
 A little covered Limoges France piece.
 Arial view. Oooh, there's my moo cow pitcher. Got him for $1.50!!! Just thought he was fun!
 Vintage navy blazer with red polka dot silk lining, and Ralph Lauren Gray blazer, both in PRISTINE condition. $2 bucks a piece!! MADNESS to walk away from these. I will dry clean them and wear!
 Close-ups.


Sooo, I had a crazy good week with my thriting finds!! How about you? Did you find anything fun this 
week?

 I'll be back tomorrow with part 2 of my antiquing post, then I have a few projects lined up for this weekend! Is anyone else in project mode?
Happy Friday!!

  2. I know. Are they Partridge, Grouse, or what? It doesn't really matter, I guess. I just liked them.

  3. Hi - I'm a first-time visitor! I have a couple of those birds and several people told me they are quail. :)
