Thrifting

On Monday I took a break from spring cleaning to go to the thrift store with my mom who was in town for the day. 

It was a good day for me.  I found some great treasure to take home with me. 

Here they are. . .

Not sure what this is for, but I love the detail and the legs - oh la la! 

I've added a votive candle and think it looks great!

Next up, a lovely lidded serving dish.  Right now it's looking a little rough and tarnish - - not in a good way.  Do you think silver polish will take the "blue" off!

I don't entertain in a fancy way very often and plan to use the bowl to hold sewing notions in my hutch/sewing center.  Maybe now I can do some "fancy sewing"!

Also picked up this picture frame and small serving dish.  The frame will look great painted and distressed.  The dish will be a great addition to my silver collection.

These two I'm really excited about. 

On the right, a pale blue, sheer valance for Ms.J room.  It's frilly and girly and I just love it.  Surprisingly, my tom boy likes it too!

On the left, is the item I was hoping to find.  A summer bedspread for Ms. J's room.  My mom has a few of these in her home and I have always like them. 

I don't know what you call this fabric.  It's not chenille, however it looks similar. 

Does anyone know?  Sure would like to have a name for something I like so much.

And finally, LOOK at this!

Isn't she lovely!  I'm so excited about this table (picked her up for $10!)

The table is very sturdy and I just love all the detail.  Can't wait to paint her up, and add her to the living room.  She'll look great next to my chair I think.

The top is covered with a badly damaged leather inserts that I hope to be able to remove.

Do you think it's possible?  I have my doubts - - think I'll try anyway!

Hope you all are have a great week.  I've been changing a few things in my bedroom and hope to show it off tomorrow.  See you then.
