Thrifty Thursday-A true collector

My dear friend Berta is a second-hand shopper extraordinaire.  Last week I shared a few views of her yard and promised I’d tour the inside of her house as well.

Berta likes color and glass.  And what better way to show both off but in a window.  This colorful collection sits above the kitchen sink.

The fireplace was closed off years ago (I like the multi-colored brick).  I think everything in this shot was bought at a thrift store or yard sale.

I call this the “ladies corner” and the only thing purchased new is the window frame with dried flowers bought at a craft show.

Berta can tell you exactly where each wonderful treasure came from, even where the yard sale was.

And I just love how she displays her treasures.

Even her bathroom window is delightful.

I sure hope to get out to do some thrift shopping soon.  What treasures have you discovered?  Join in by linking below.

My dear friend Berta is recovering from a shoulder replacement.  So if you notice any dust, please know we call it “velvet,” and live with it.

Thrifty Thursday-Yard Art

I haven’t gotten out to any thrift stores this week so am digging into the archives of my dear thrifty friend Berta.  Follow along to discover some of her treasures here.

Thrifty Thursday-It’s Victoria’s secret

I found some great deals including this turquoise necklace for $18, plus Victoria's secret here.

Thrifty Thursday-Time to gussy up

Returning this week to Yavapai Humane Society Thrift Shop I found some really nice clothes. I liked this outfit a lot, but have vowed not to buy skirts without pockets.

Instead I found some nice tops, a dress and a pair of beaded barrettes, all for under $20. And all in my favorite colors.

Next stop, St Vincent DePaul Thrift Store, also in Prescott.

I found what I really wanted in the parking lot. Well, not really, but I was intrigued enough to take this photo. Guess it belongs to an employee. What a perfect car to drive to (probably) volunteer at the thrift store.

I bought these two 1950s sterling silver bracelets, one with a matching ring. May have paid a bit too much for these, but then I always call silver jewelry my retirement. Can’t imagine it dropping in value.

Plus I bought this DVD. One of my many favorite musicals.

What kinds of deals have you run into recently? Hope you’ll consider sharing your treasures by linking in below.

Thrifty Thursday-Could be going to the dogs

I truly love thrift stores that support the community, like the Yavapai Humane Society in Prescott, Arizona.  Discover the treasures I found here.

A toast to Thrifty Thursday

I don’t drink alcohol very often yet occasionally enjoy a little sipping liquor, especially in a pretty glass.  I bought a pair of these delightful cut glass with gold trim at Habitat for Humanity.

Cheers!
