Thrift Shop Thursday #8

May 14, 2015 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

I almost did not have time to fit this weeks Thrift Shop Thursday in today.  My middle guy was in an accident, thankfully he is fine, just a bit bit bruised and scraped.  Mostly, he is just devastated about his 1996 F150.  He’s a bit like me with the old and vintage pieces!  My oldest is home from college which adds on another entire level of chaos. As for me, my hubs, and the Gman, we are trying to fit in some more exercise.  I will be the first to admit, it is getting the best of me!

Alright, enough about us, on to Thrift Shop Thursday #8.

Up first, I am sharing the bowl on our foyer table.

Thrift Shop bowl

We found this pedestal bowl at a small consignment shop near our home.  I like the leaf details that make up the bowl. It’s just a sweet little piece that adds something different to the hall table.

The drawings above the hall table are also part of Thrift Shop Thursday #8.

Thrift Shop Thursday #7

May 7, 2015 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

Yes, it’s that time again…Thrift Shop Thursday.  We are up to #7. This morning my husband asked, “Don’t you need to go Thrift Shopping, it’s Thursday?” Well, I wasn’t planning on it but, hey, he kind of sounded like he wanted me to go shopping and if it makes him happy, I am all for it!

So let’s get this started.

Thrift Shop Thursday #7

Thrift Shop Thursday #7

First up this Thursday is my brass candle snuffer.

Vintage Candle Snuffer

I picked this up at Goodwill (of course) a couple of weeks ago.  I have to say I couldn’t wait for the new Goodwill to open but I think I like the old one better. They seem to move the merchandise in and out more rapidly.  There is always something new and strange coming in to the store.

Yes, I am still on the gold/brass kick.  I think all my little accessories look great on our newly finished IKEA Bookcase that I shared here.

Up next…

Vintage Binoculars

the vintage binoculars I picked up at a shop called Twisted Sister. I orginally bought these for my husband to use down at the Island House but I think they look perfect right here at home. They do look good on the bookcase but we really just never remember to take them when we head to the Eastern Shore.  We only remember them when we are looking out at the water and need them!

Vintage Personal Ashtray

Next up is an oldie but a goodie!  It’s a vintage brass personal ashtray.  Many, many years ago I was loving the gold/brass look.  See, if you hold on to your junk long enough it will come back into favor again! I have a couple different personal ashtrays around that I like and have had for awhile.

Last up this week is a lamp I found at a consignment shop.

Thrifted Lamp Revamp

Before we revamped our kitchen this lamp had a burgundy and gold lamp shade that I am now using in our sunroom (for the time being, we are getting ready to revamp that room as well.) I wanted to keep the base and I had some shades that I bought at the same consignment shop years ago. I liked the shape of the lampshade but not the pleated material that was on it.  I just cut the outer pleat off and left the inner material intact.  I used the same material that I used to recover the bench in the kitchen that you can see here.

Well, that finishes another week of Thrift Shop Thursday.  It is hard to believe we are on #7.  I am looking forward to school coming to an end this year. I am ready to get down to the Eastern Shore so I can go thrift shopping at some different shops!

Thrift Shop Thursday #7

I hope you are having a good week and scoring lots of great finds.

Until next time…

Thrift Shop Thursday #3

Thursday seems to roll around much more rapidly, since I started sharing my finds on Thrift Shop Thursday. This week I will be sharing my usual Thrift Shop finds, but I am also going to start sharing some of my bargains from such places as HomeGoods, TJ Maxx and a new to me online shop called Decor Steals. (Click on the link to learn more…love this site)

Thrift Shop Thursday #3

First up, my dough bowl, I have had this piece for a few years.  It was a steal at a local consignment shop.  I keep looking for other dough bowls but I am not willing to shell out that kind of money. For me, this one is perfection!

Thrift Shop Thursday #2

April 2, 2015 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

I am going to be totally honest.  This week was a tough one on the thrift shopping front.  I found nothing.  Zip. Zero!  It was not a good week here.  I even made a trip to my favorite spot on the Eastern Shore and it was CLOSED! So for this week I will do a round up of some of my favorite finds plus I will share a blogger that always finds some great thrift shop finds!

Thrift Shop Thursday #1

March 26, 2015 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

It’s no secret that I have a bit of an obsession with thrift stores.  When I say thrift stores, that is kind of a broad statement.  I will hunt for great deals at thrift stores, consignment shops, Goodwill, yard/garage sales and even roadside rescues… in other words, someone else’s trash.  So I thought it would be fun to start a new series on the blog where I share my favorite finds of the week.  So this will be week 1 of

Using Bargain Finds to Create Unique Spaces

July 23, 2013 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

 

This past weekend, I spent some time hanging out at our Island Home and I thought I would get some updated photos of the little office area I created. It is really no more than a corner in one of the bedrooms but my favorite thing about it is my $10 desk. I was going to sand it down and repaint it but that never happened.  All it really needed was a good old fashion scrubbing. I like that it is kind of shabby chic which fits in with the Island vibe of the house.  I love using my bargain finds to create unique spaces that our original to me.  I feel like when I decorate with my thrifted finds I am creating a look that most people will not have because you usually can’t go out and find the exact pieces at a store.

Creating an Office Space with a Ten Dollar Thrift Shop Find

How I am Using my Ten Dollar Thrift Shop Find to Create an Office Space

Using Bargain Finds to Create Unique Spaces

 

Everything in this space either came from a thrift store or was a clearance/sale item.  My favorite piece hands down is the ten-dollar desk.  It came from my favorite shop on the Eastern Shore.  It is the perfect size and I like the little center drawer. I also have to say that I like the chair which came from Target many years ago.  It makes for a nice and comfy office chair. I also like the old fashion bell on the desk.  When the Gman was about 3 he was with me on a thrift shopping trip and he loved the shop bell at the register so they gave it to him. I miss those days when he came with me everywhere!

As I am sitting here looking at the photo, I am noticing that all my sea glass is missing from the glass lamp. The same person that stuck that bird statue on my desk probably took the sea glass.  I am  wondering how I missed all of that! I was probably just focused on my $10 desk.

The wall decor came from a thrift shop and the wooden box with the chalkboard top came from TJ Maxx.  I like the driftwood look of it. It usually houses some of my books which are missing as well.  Apparently, I am not very observant when I am taking photos!

My $10 Dollar Thrifted Desk

I hope you have enjoyed my little office space at my home away from home.

Until Next Time,
