Thrift List

Do you keep one? It’s sort of like a grocery list, but for items that you are seeking to hunt or find. I keep a sticky note on my cork board when I’m reminded of something that we need that I may think will be more interesting and unique if found while thrifting.

My Current List Reads:

1 ) A gravy boat or creamer (something with a spout)

2)  A citrus press/ juicer

3)  4 red plates, glasses or bowls (to add a nice splash of colour to a Christmas table)

4)  A vintage bread box

5)  Unique white frames for my picture wall

I know that I could just go out and purchase all these items but that is not really the point. I don’t want to be a consumer if I can buy something used, it’s called recycling! And I actually find it fun to go and specifically look for items when thrifting. It also keeps me in check to not buy things we don’t need!

These are some things I’ve seen on Etsy: (click on the word to link to the sellers site)

1) Gravy Boat
A vintage Pyrex gravy boat, so cute.

Fall Prints on Etsy

I'm not one for seasonal art, but I thought that these prints were versatile and pretty for any season, or if you do like switching up what is in your frames, they do emit nice fall feeling. Click on the links below to see the sellers shops.
