Happy Friday eve, friends! I’m especially excited on this particular Thursday to be guest hosting Thrift Score Thursday, a really excellent Instagram hashtag party hosted by Brynne of The Gathered Home, Cassie of Primitive and Proper, Corinna of A Designer at Home, and Tricia of Black and White Obsession.
I love love second-hand stuff (as most of you probably already know), and it turns out vicariously enjoying others’ finds is almost as good as finding a great thrift score yourself (almost). And guess what? You’re all invited to play along, too!
My Find
Starting off today with my find this week–this great sunburst mirror was a yard sale find. You can’t have too many mirrors, and I love the way this one shows its age. I haven’t found a place to hang it just yet because I basically want to hang it everywhere!
My Picks
Ashley from Bigger than the Three of Us scored this awesome mid-century dresser on Craigslist for only $50, and I absolutely love the drawer pulls! Ashley is a fellow Springfieldian, so I’m glad she got to this before I did, because I would have been very tempted to buy it myself and lawd knows I don’t need another dresser. Plus it looks so nice against that lovely color in her master bedroom.

Can you believe Alice from Thoughts from Alice got this amazing rattan footstool for only $2 (yes, that is TWO UNITED STATES DOLLARS)?! Meanwhile, I spent my $2 on a package of Trolli Octopus Gummies, and that seemed like a great deal until I found out about this stool. I’m always a big fan of rattan, but the charming boho fabric puts this one over the top.

Sabrina (@futuristichuman) is one of my thrifting heroes (check out #thriftingwithsabrina to see all her scores, but be prepared to be very jealous!) and this estate sale rug is just the reason why. I have eternal rug mania, and this one has color, pattern, texture–everything! The craftsmanship is just gorgeous.

Speaking of craftsmanship, Jenn from Suite 22 Antiques found this amazing wooden horse sculpture that was carved by a human. Like with his or her hands! I never get over how cool the idea of that is. Jenn finds the niftiest stuff, and she actually sells it on Etsy, which I could never do because I am undisciplined and a hoarder. You should check out her shop, though, because her stuff is priced really well and is all extremely charming.
