Recent Thrift Finds
by Karen
My hands are spattered with blue paint as I type this post. I’ve been busy with the study/playroom and it is probably the room I am most excited about. Fun is the name of the game – my vision for the room is bright, functional, and fun. But enough about that room – let’s talk secondhand. I have always enjoyed browsing thrift stores for treasures and as I’ve become more confident with my design and decor skills, I am finding myself re-using existing items more and more. But let’s face it – there is a lot of junk in secondhand stores. Lots of junk. But honestly, that makes the search for gold that much more exciting. So let’s take a look at my secondhand finds over the past week…
- Chair – $5.50 (Ft. Sill Thrift Shop)
- Little kid chairs, set of two – $5.00 (Ft. Sill Thrift Shop)
- Piano Bench – 6.99 (Goodwill)
I have big plans for all four pieces. Big plans! Three involve the study/playroom and one our bedroom…it is going to be wild!
