But not today. In fact, I've had kind of a "meh" couple of thrifting weeks. I don't know what it is. It's not that I have found nothing, but I've not found anything particularly rapturous. Let's have a look at some of the goodies, anyway.
This is a close-up of a spectacular Aurora Borealis rose gold-tone necklace I got at a yard sale, yesterday. If this had a flavor, it would taste like "I'm fabulous."
this choker is missing stones and may or may not be true vintage, but I still really like it.
Do you love this litte 1950s Coty compact? It still has some remnants of the make-up in it.
This plays - surprise - We Three Kings. He's/they're chalkware and in their original box. Obviously, they weren't when I took the picture, but they are now safely back in their original box. They seem really unhappy and the music plays like a funeral dirge. I guess that's true of most chalkware nativity participants.
Aren't these fabulous? They are shimmery gold with little rhinestone bands. They are made for a woman with enormous feet, or an average-sized man. These are great drag shoes, I think. This picture doesn't do them justice.
Those are some of the things I found this weekend (or refound in a box of old junk). Did you find anything cool?

I definitely adore that classic Coty compact. Are you planning on refilling it? I've never refilled a compact (vintage or modern), but think that I'd be really tempted to if I found a vintage one in good shape that I loved.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing about your fabulous $1.00 vintage patio set find with me! I would have been jumping for joy, too!!! It's awesome that you were able to have it altered to fit. Yay!!!
