A Quick Revamp in the Kitchen with a Goodwill Find

September 16, 2018 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

Goodwill was good to me this summer.  Later this week,  I will be doing a post with all of my summer goodies from my thrifting adventures.  For now, I wanted to share a quick revamp in the kitchen with a Goodwill find.

Have you ever heard of a Windsor Birdcage chair?  I can’t say that I have either.  Well, let me introduce you to my latest love…

Windsor Birdcage Chairs found at Goodwill

I bought six of these for $5 a piece. They caught my eye as soon as I saw them but I was kind of having a conversation with myself along the lines of,  “Do I really need more furniture?”  I thought they were really pretty and the stain went well with my floors and my kitchen table.  I sent a picture to my husband and he was on the fence about it.  Then I sent him a picture of the price of the chairs I found online…he changed his mind and said, ” For $30 bucks, go for it!”

Goodwill Deal of the Day
I found three side chairs and three arm chairs.  I thought it was unusual that someone would buy three arm chairs.  It wasn’t until my son pointed it out but a spindle was broken on one of the arms chairs.  It was glued back together. I took it to a shop to see if it could be repaired.  I am waiting to see what he can come up with.  In the mean time, I keep going back to Goodwill to see if they have a 4th side chair just incase the chair in the shop can’t be fixed for a decent price.
Updating my kitchen with a great Goodwill Find
I know I’ve said it before but I have to say it again…I love Goodwill.  Where else can you go and buy 6 chairs for $30? I mean really!
I did a few other quick changes to the decor in the kitchen that I will share later this week.   I hope you all had a great weekend and for my readers that were in the path of Hurricane Florence, I am thinking of you!
Until Next Time,

A Round-Up of my Favorite Goodwill and Thrifted Treasures

March 4, 2018 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

It is no secret that I am obsessed with Goodwill and thrift shopping.  So much so that for my birthday, my husband asked me what I wanted and my response was nothing but silence from him when I carried in my hauls from Goodwill.  A few days later, I had to clarify that his agreement to this request was not just for the day of my birthday but for a lifetime. I think it was a win/win for both of us! I am also keeping up my end of the deal that when something new comes in something old must leave the house…I always drop something off at Goodwill, even if it’s someone else’s belongings!

Goodwill Favorites

There are so many things that I adore about Goodwill and thrift shopping.  I love looking through all the discarded items that were once loved by someone else.  I enjoy thinking about how they were once used.  I like that the inventory is constantly changing. The deals are incredible and I like finding one of a kind items.  I also like finding items that appear to be past their prime and breathing new life into them.  I always get that spark of excitement when I pull into the lot, eager to see what is waiting to be found.

I thought it would be fun to do a round-up of some of my favorite treasures and how I incorporated them into our home.

Pottery Barn desk chair found at Goodwill

This is my most recent Goodwill treasure.  I paid a whopping $15 for this Pottery Barn desk chair.  It is in great shape, just a few nicks and scratches on the wood frame. If you look above the piano, you can see another thrift store favorite.  This shelf which is actually from an old buffet side table is flipped upside down. I think we paid $10 for it years ago.

Goodwill creamy ivory, soft, crocheted throw

The crocheted soft, creamy throw comes for Goodwill for the bargain price of $2.  I always look for crocheted throws or embroidery linens. I just toss them into to the washing machine the minute I get home!

Decorating my Billy Bookcase with Thrifted finds

The mirror and the weather vane came from Goodwill and the green metal letter came from our local Barn Show which carries vintage and handmade items.

Poems from Shakespeare and Company in black iron frame

These black iron frames are reminiscent of something from the Magnolia line from Joanna Gaines. I added them to the shelves in my sitting room which you can read more about here.

Goodwill Candle Holder

I picked up two of these little candle holders for $2 and added them to my DIY shelves in my sitting room as well.

DIY shelves and a Goodwill Makeover

You can see the Goodwill finds here on my DIY shelves.  The cabinet is a $40 Goodwill find.  You can read more about it here.

Buffet-with-Shelf-and-Carrera-Marble-top-768x1024

All of my white dishes and pottery come from Goodwill.  I use it to decorate my buffet and shelves and all my glass front cabinets in the kitchen. I have found some great pieces of white ironstone.

Decorating with Goodwill Treasures

Pinecone brass candle holders

Metal Golden Floral Candle Holder

Thrift Shop Candle Holder

Decorative Brass CandleHolder

Obviously, I have a little obsession with candle holders.  I have more but won’t share them all today.

Ladders and Lighting

Still one of my favorites…the teak boat ladder was a yard sale find.  Speaking of ladders, I bought a 10 foot vintage ladder which is still sitting at the store because it wouldn’t fit in my car! Yikes, I need to pick it up this week. I hope it is a glorious as I remember it to be! I will share it when and if I get it home.

I still adore this golden beauty.  I have a ton of golden thrifted lovelies.  You can search “gold” in my search bar and look up more of my favorites.  I kind of went on a gold binge for a while.  I tend to get hooked on something and shop it like crazy, hence all the candle holders, gold items, mirrors, letters, the list goes on and on.  You get my point!

 

Christmas Mantel with pops of red

Excuse the Christmas photo but I love this picture with my yard sale chippy white frames! Yep, love them. If you got this far, thank you for sticking it out! I have sooooo many more goodies to share but I get the feeling we are all on overload!  Stay tuned for another post later this week where I will share some more of my favorite cheap treats!

Until Next Time,
