TGITF Friends! We've all heard the adage They don't make them like they used to and I have to agree when it comes to this gorgeous card of Bluebird buttons. It's dated 1923 and I've never seen one like it before--don't you just love the art and colors?
When the price is right, I bring home orphan shakers and repurpose them. Love the pretty floral pattern on this one.
Vintage jello molds and vintage tart tins are also on my list of favorites to repurpose. Since my collection is pretty stocked right now, these are Available.
Crocheted hotpads add such a homey vibe to the kitchen. These look like they've never been used. Available
A pair of metal industrial casters, a junker's favorite! Available
Until next time, happy hunting!
I never pass up the tart tins either but I sitting here looking at a large jar full of them. Some of my need to become available in my booth. Love the graphics on the Blue Bird button card.
ReplyDeleteI love that shaker, so pretty. Great finds this week. I just scored some vintage glass Christmas ornaments and will show those during the Christmas in July Blog hop.
ReplyDeleteHi Cecilia, I love your finds, & I just had to go check out how you repurposed orphan shakers. So interesting! I might have to give that a try. I have a pretty cobalt blue one with a red top right now. I bought it cuz I just liked the pretty bottle, not realizing it was actually a shaker until I got it home. Been wondering what to do with it! Have a great weekend! Happy sales & thrifting!

The button card is so sweet! And I always love me a good vintage caster! Great idea to use the shaker as a diffuser, genius! xo Kathleen
ReplyDeleteI'm always inspired by your posts and this week I actually went out thrifting! I only hit one shop, but I found a super cute table for three bucks and it's already had a makeover! This could become a habit! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat button card is really sweet. I wish packaging was still as artful as it was years ago.
ReplyDeleteGood scores Cecilia! I am drooling over that button card!!
