Tiny little salt-glazed pot I found at goodwill today for $1.99. There’s something about it. Had to bring it home. Minnesota, USA.

I got this 1960’s Laurel Lamp Co. articulated floor lamp at goodwill a few years ago, and FINALLY found a shade to do it justice today!

Haven’t found anything interesting at Goodwill for a few weeks, but that changed today. 1959 painting on paper. It’s so cool! It was in a cheap Ikea frame. Gotta find it a better one.

I really haven’t been finding much of anything the last couple weeks, but this is just fun. Now I gotta figure out what I’m going to hang from it.

I was dusting, and I guess this thrifted glass panel has found a friend! A bit early for Halloween, but it seems appropriate.

Saw a bit of green under the chalk paint and had to see the rest. Lots of chips on the original paint, but it’s cute!

Found this a few years ago in an antique store. Late 19th century botanical specimen book from Red Wing, Minnesota.

Found this in a trash pile over the weekend. I’m thinking the cover might have been a shop class project. Can’t find a date on the half of a cookbook, but I’m thinking 40’s. Super fun!

I saw one of these vintage articulated fish bottle openers on here a while back and thought it was so cool! Found one today for $3.99. It’s missing some of the abalone shells, but I still love it!

I guess I have a bell collection now! There were tons of them at goodwill today-Somebody’s life-long collection. I really love the old bronze one with the braided rope.

Found this vintage wool rug/throw for $8.99. It really smelled of dog… but I washed it cold and on delicate, air dried, and it came out so well!!!

Had to save a stack of old photos at the end of an estate sale. Couldn’t let them go in the dumpster. I decided that the dog is a “Winston.”

Grabbed a stack of old photos at the end of an estate sale. Couldn’t let this guy end up in a dumpster. I think I should call him Winston.

Went an estate sale today- one of those rare places completely untouched since the 30’s or 40’s. It was an old summer place for a Minneapolis family, and I found this 1920’s table in the basement by the coal bin. Not perfect, and never will be, but now it has a little life left in it.

I can never pass up a good box, and this is the best one I’ve found in a while. Homemade. Square nails put it pre-1880, with the marquetry part on top being possibly older. $4.99 at goodwill today. I LOVE IT.
