Thrifted Thursday.

Well hello. I've been bad at blogging this week. Whoopsy, I reeeaaallly meant to get back on track but it didn't happen. It certainly turned out to be a busier week that I expected. Although I'm exhausted, plenty of great things came from it...some extra money, a fantastic photoshoot with fantastic new models, and of course, the topic of this post, some UH-mazing thrifted finds!! After my "day" job yesterday, I had a huge itch to do go thrifting. I was torn on going or not because my handsome mister lucked out and didn't have to go into the office so I had him at home, all to myself. It was quite a decision...cuddling versus thrifting, two of my very favorite things...well, got to do a little of both, hooray!

My thrifted treasures (clockwise):
1. Bright blue vintage Samsonite shoulder bag...in perfect condition! It's already holding all of my work essentials.
2. (Can't really see it..) But the blue bag is sitting atop of a lovely olive green vintage suitcase, in mint condition as well. I'm thinking I may use it for a kitty bed mentioned here.
3. Three matching vintage faux floral paintings...they are actually just printed on particle board, but I love their aesthetic, and they match my living room perfectly!
4. Vintage olive green/brown plate...I have one exactly like it, and I was so excited to find a match!
5. Vintage picnic basket, again, in great condition! I was seriously scoring left and right!
6. A plethora of vintage contrasting/reversible floral towels and linens...to add to my collection. <3
7. A pretty vintage floral mug. My new collection of these is growly rapidly and they look so cute in my exposed kitchen shelves.
8. Little shabby chic pink and white mirror...it'll probably go in my bathroom. :)

Man, oh man, I left my thirfting adventures one happy lady!
I'm going to start some new listings for our online shop here shortly...And again, I'm going to try to get back on track with blogging. Bare with me :)

Have you thrifted any thing fantastic lately?

Ta ta til later.

Thrifted Thursday.

Hey y'all. Happy Thursday to you! 
It's beautiful outside so I'm in an extra great mood. Open doors and windows sort of beautiful! Ahhh it feels so good to actually be able to wear layers! Oh how I love me some tights and blazers...
(well today is skinny jeans + blazer, but you get me, right?)
Thursday means I'm back with another installment of Thrifted Thursday...
Last weekend I traveled way out to the NW valley to one of my fave thrift shops that I hadn't been to in quite some time...and it was well worth it. I actually had to put back a bunch of stuff because I had surpassed my personal spending limit. 

Here's a little glance at just a few things I got...
I was having some fun with my new phone's camera apps, so I apologize if you are the sort who doesn't love overly edited photos...I didn't tweek these at all, my phone did.

Clockwise:
 1. Pretty vintage floral jar
 2. A *matching* pyrex baking dish (same pattern as my last pyrex purchase)
 3. A gorgeous vintage scarf (perfect holiday colors, I'm already planning X-mas week outfits, teehee)
4. A perfect set of Russian nesting dolls, mentioned here.
Plus some pretty vintage linens:
AND some beautiful vintage slips, they were still in my laundry pile so no photo of those... sorry.

Thrifted anything good lately??

Too Cute: Vintage Greeting Cards.

I may have a new obsession on my hands... How freaking adorable are these vintage greeting cards?!?! Everything is SO much better when it's vintage...

(Teehee, of course most of the cards I love would have a kitty theme.)

Sourced from these Etsy shops:

What's your newest obsession?
We'd love to know!
