I find a lot of mod vintage stuff when I go thrifting. A lot of it is in bad condition or something that's cool, but that I just don't want...
These Rosti bowls are really cool, but I really don't need anything like this. Plus, they were at an antique mall and were pretty expensive. That TV is awesome, but in rough shape.
I find a lot of these Danish modern utensils, but they are usually in gross condition. Yuk!
This funny wooden bird thingy was cool, but I just couldn't bring him home with me. I liked this green glass, but I have a feeling it wasn't vintage and was from IKEA or Pier1 or someplace like that.
I love stuff from the 70s with type on it. But like the utensils above, this would be kinda gross to use. I know a lot of thrifters love these Josef Albers record sleeve designs, but I'm kinda like, "meh".
What DIDN'T you buy at the thrift store?
Just found this wonderful tin at my fave thrift shop that i did not buy: http://www.flickr.com/photos/happymeat/6862247748/in/photostream (waay to expensive, 48 USD), and this wonderful illustrated Stavangerflint Kari plate: http://www.flickr.com/photos/happymeat/7026553719/in/photostream/. Kari plates must be my biggest weakness I think, i think I have ten or fifteen different ones by now.
