Thrifty Thursday

Last week stunk at the Goodwills… there was nothing… but this week I made out! Lets have a look see.

Big ol’ Crock lid! YES!




aka. Lazy Susan.



Found a small crockpot for $3.99 to melt wax in. I’m going to try making some wax ornies.



A nice Pitcher.








2 yummy votives and 2 ugly candles for wax melting.



A pewter goblet (YES!) and a small Williamsburg pottery pitcher.



2 magic Hallmark ornaments.



2 candle sticks and a cute little pumpkin.



A yummy votive warmer.



A Christmas ornament.



A tiny old medicine bottle.



And the find of the week… 4 Pfaltzgraff Folk Art Wine glasses for $2.00 and…



and all these matching drink glasses for $1.75!

SCORE! So thrilled about this find.



Until next time…

Carmen and the Primcats

As Lawrence Welk used to say...Wonerfl, Wonerfl, Wonerfl....
You really have an eye for the good stuff. Great pickn's.

Great finds. The Goodwills near me rarely have any good prim stuff. When they do, they want an arm and a leg(a your right kidney)for it.

Love your home, it looks so cozy and inviting.

Awesome finds Carmen! Love the idea of a thrift crockpot for melting wax. I've been wanting to try doing some ornies but didn't want to use my good pot or gunk up a sauce pan. Never thought of getting a used one ~ DUH!
