A Treasure Trove

A few of my latest GW finds. These items where all purchased at the GW outlet. YES....there is such a thing!! You buy by the the pound...its like a dream come true ;)



 
 Isnt he darling! its a vintage s & p shaker. It has a sticker on it that says coney island. He is going in my office!


 

I intended to strip the fabric off of this lamp and just have the wire as a shade. (Seen at Cottage8 ) for more of a french look. I really liked the shade though...after I got it on the lamp...lol We will see....

 

These are flat back baskets made to hang on the wall. They are going next to my new china hutch (when it is finished!) to store vintage kitchen towels and linens. Should I cottage them up? I think I will like the dark contrast next to the cream hutch....what do you think?



You can never have to many storage baskets! This pair has a Christmas design on the other side and of course the shade of green is not my fave, but the liners are easily remedied. This pair has $9.99 each tags still on from target! 


  

Isn't this an adorable shade?? ( I added the burlap tie) but it would have been just as cute without it. It looks like its from the 70's maybe, but I fell in love with its "natural" look!


These are just a few of the goodies I found at the GW outlet. The back of the Durango was full  for $35 and I cant WAIT to go back!

Stacey, you and I live too far apart!! I wish I could spend the day with you and Tina tomorrow on her birthday. I definitely want to be there next year for her "special" birthday so don't forget me.
I bet the coney island s/p shaker has some value! It is darling! I am loving what you are doing in your new home. Looking forward to more pics!

You hit the jackpot with the lamp. I think it was worth the price of admission.

Where exactly is the buy by the lb goodwill in Nashville? I'm dying to go!!! Hey, btw don't know if you remember me but I'm Candice's friend from LTC waaay back. We went to YC in Nashville FOREVER ago when I was dating my (now) hubby. Check out my blog if you'd like. It's mainly about our baby boy, but I do toss in some goodwill finds and deco stuff occasionally. Your blog and your style simply ROCKS!
