Lately, it seems as though things are picking up at the thrifts. I've been able to find at least one decent item whenever I go thrifting... which is maybe once a week at this point.
:: I love this little metal TEA container. I know it goes with a complete flour-sugar-coffee-tea set, but it's still cute on its own. I'm sure it will sell quickly in the shop.
:: I usually don't like to sell single mugs, but this one was too good to pass up. The pattern and its size makes it unusual.
:: Sets of mugs usually sell well. I couldn't pass up this set of six Japanese mugs. They are in great condition and the glazing is a really cool decorative element.
:: This little, but heavy, ceramic bird was too good to pass up. It has some condition issues, but I'm confident it will sell in the shop. It's signed, "1975 Hartwig."
:: These two pieces of pottery got my attention right away. The vase is signed "Turpin 1986" and the bowl has a West Germany sticker on the bottom. I contemplated keeping them, but I will put them in the shop... I can't keep everything I find!
What have YOU found at the thrift store recently?




Great finds! Well, the Hartwig may be overpriced at this shop but its still pretty exciting.
