well, several days later & after one trip back when they were closed, i dragged both my kids out in the rain to go back for it. that's how much i like it! she was marked $25 but i got her for $20 because i also got a pair of lamps [more on those soon!] & the very nice lady took $40 for the whole shebang!
she [yes, the delicate but substantial mirror in the perfect shade of sky blue with the subtle but lovely detail is definitely a she] found a happy new home in our entry where she fits perfectly & is big enough to basically serve as a full-length mirror right before we walk out the door:
except that now i think i need some sort of half circle little entry table our shoe basket can tuck up under!i think i'm starting to really get the whole thrifting thing.... the thrill of the hunt & of finding a bargain... it's hard for me to justify paying full price at target & i really like the more eclectic look a unique find gives!
what is your favorite goodwill/craigslist/thrift store score? either recent or of all time. i want to hear!
p.s. if you can't find a mirror at goodwill/craigslist/thrift that you really like, try looking at lowes with these coupons!
I love thrifting but don't do it often. However, you must share this mom-and-pop store you've found in our area :)
ReplyDeleteyes! it's a cute little place right in the middle of rolesville called from jewels to tools :) & right across the street is this funky little flea market owned by this cute little old man. it is hard to find kid-less time to go!
