Last week, I told you how I found a vintage sewing basket while shopping for thrifty kids' clothing. I also found these assorted small treasures.
I'm a bit of a sucker for items that are displayed nicely. The clever thrift store employees arranged shelves of neutral-toned items that all worked in harmony with one another. I picked some lovely pieces from these shelves.
This larger vase was the most expensive piece, at $2.99. The others were from 99 cents to $1.99 each. I love the blue finger indentations on the vase. It helps it to tie in nicely with the next piece:
I wasn't sure what I would do with this set of maracas, but they are so pretty I couldn't help myself.
For the moment, I haven't decided where to display these pieces, so I have accumulated a jumble of stuff on top of the bookcase in my family room.
Did you find any treasures this week?

I love that little pottery creamer, such pretty hues of blue ... I have a lot of pottery in my house, and feel so lucky to find a nice piece at the thrift store. Wendy
ReplyDeletethey look great :)
ReplyDeleteOh my all of these are lovely.
ReplyDeleteThere is something so serene & contemplative about pottery in neutral shades-- just lovely! We haven't been thrifting for housewares in a while...hmmm...maybe we'll be able to squeeze some in next week!
ReplyDeleteI'm not exaggerating when I say that I would have grabbed every single piece you did. All of those beautiful, rich pieces for pennies... :)
ReplyDeleteI am such a sucker for pottery...I love it ALL, but the two ivory pieces are my faves, I think. And your "jumble" looks very artful! I would leave it just as it is. :)
ReplyDeleteThose are so great! I love pottery. Especially in neutrals.
ReplyDeleteLove them! Especially the cream colored pots, so gorgeous.
ReplyDeletewow they look lovely! I need to get past the kids rearranging everything to making pretty vignettes-suppose I'll miss their work when it's gone and should enjoy it now
