Recent Thrift store finds

 I found some interesting things at a large thrift store last weekend in St. George, Utah.  When I shop at thrift stores, I look for items that can be turned into something updated or shabby.  But sometimes I like things just the way they are.  This wonderful mercury glass jar jumped out at me and I sure had to have it.  It was $2.00.
 Then I saw this really awesome milk glass vase.  Loving this art-deco style.
 I can never resist an apothecary jar of any size!
 I will turn these into some shabby wonderfulness!
 All of these will become chalk boards!
 I could not believe this little gem for a couple of dollars
A frame that can be beautiful. . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . .a vintage butter dish. I can never have two many of these.
This weekend is our annual Valley wide yard sales.  The weather here will be in the upper 80's and so we are excited to attend the approx. 45 yard sales.  Wish me luck on finding some amazing things!
