Penguin is my publisher. How could I pass this little tote bag up? It was only $1!
I’ve never seen anything like this. It’s a Fire King casserole in a little holder. A candle goes in that little cup at the bottom to keep the food warm. Love it!
Two great pieces of Pyrex. The red one is a medium-sized bowl and the blue one is a small casserole.
I found this book tucked away on a shelf. I love that the inscription was written in 1903. The book was published in 1902. In the back are several ads for other books by the publisher. They cost $1.50 each–in 1902 dollars!
Secret awesomeness of that book, though? These 1960s photographs that were tucked in the pages. The color one is a marching drum line dressed like Native Americans and the black and white one is an Asian mother and daughter sitting on a covered wagon (minus the cover.)
Two cute little hair pins. This is one of my favorite finds this week. A semi-creepy, paint-by-number ballerina. I can’t wait to hang her in my new house!
Two adorable little Franciscan planters.
Love this belt–and it actually fits me. I never find belts in my size!
Terrible picture of an adorable locket. It has a picture of a little girl with a pixie haircut contemplating a flower.
Book full of instructions for little crochet monsters.
This little wooden box full of pastels charmed me. And it only cost $2!
Kevin found this wooden magazine rack. I love how big and sturdy it is.
Another little planter. Daisies!
My number one favorite find–maybe of the whole year (and it’s only February!) I’ve been searching and searching for a thrifted record player for years. I really want a suitcase record player, but I never see them, and when I look on line they’re so expensive. This small stereo (it has a double tape deck, a radio, and a three-disc changer, plus the record player on top) was only $20, including the speakers that aren’t shown in the picture. YAY!
So, then I spent several hours searching through dusty stacks of albums. So much fun. My favorite find was the soundtrack to Jesus Christ Superstar. I also found several books-on-record for Ruby. And this basket that holds them all perfectly.
Gah! Gaaaaaaaah! That cat lamp! That! Cat! Lamp! Gaaaaaaaaaaah!
Great thrifted treasures! And way to go on finding the record player/stereo. they really are hard to find at a good price! thank you for sharing at TTF!
