While we didn't find what we were looking for we found some other major thrift scores. Here they are in order of appearance:
We spotted an awesome lamp that had time traveled from the past to find us in our local thrift. Eric and I instantly agreed that we HAD to have it. New lamp total cost: $2.95
I also approached a stranger and said, "You look cool," and pretty much forced her to be my friend. She was lovely and kind about being approached by an outgoing lady with a wild haired toddler. New friend total cost: $0...well technically the cost of a business card so we had a way to stay in touch so perhaps the total cost was something in the range of $0.00001
Finally Eric found an amazing vintage chair and I think that I may have squealed in delight when I spotted it, it is perfect for our style and home. New chair total cost: $4
Also, you can see that we've been rearranging our living room. Perhaps I will have to give another tour now that things are looking different. So there you have it, our most recent AWESOME thrifted finds! Have you been thrifting lately?

All the yard sales are finished in my area, temperature is too cool now, and the chain stores like Value Village and Salvation Army are just not cheap any more, I think I will have to go downtown to a family owned thrift store to find good buys like you did! And I love that lamp!
Ooooh! Love your "finds" Love how the color palette is so connected to your new "acquisition" ;) I was planning to garage sale today, but slept in after a raucous dinner party at our house!
i love your thrifty finds and the fact that you forced someone to be friends with you.
im in need of a new bedspread too, as ours has a claw sized hole in it. we're blaming the dog.
