Hello! Welcome to What Meegan Makes today.
I am excited to show you my New Thrifted Finds. It was a great day at the thrift store! There was so much to see and find. I love when that happens, don’t you? The best part??? I didn’t pay more than $5 for ALL of it. LOVE that!
Alrighty then, let’s see what I found…
Okay. So, there was a stack of Christmas plates. Each plate had a different year. Obviously someone had collected one every year.
I perused through the stack, crossing my fingers I would find 1977. Lo and behold, I found it! I love the Winter scene. And 1977 is the year Hubby and I were married.
As I was heading to the checkout counter, one of the thrift store workers was pushing out a cart full of “new” items. I followed the cart. (Am I the only one that does that?) Anyway, I spotted this vintage looking crate. It was weathered, sturdy and just my style. I thought, “Hmmm…If it more than $3, I won’t get it.” Even though I REALLY liked it.
WooHoo! I couldn’t believe my eyes. It was 50 cents. Just in my price range! The chip in the wood is underneath on the bottom, so no big deal. I am excited to fill the crate with pine cones, Christmas ornaments, candles, vintage books and even my sea shells.
It was one of those days when the thrifting Gods were smiling upon me. And it was a lot of fun. I always like to share my New Thrifted Finds with YOU, because I know you like a good deal when you see one, too.
Thanks for joining me while I share my New Thrifted Finds. OH! And if you want to see MORE of my thrift store finds and trips, follow the hashtag #thriftingwithmeegan on Instagram.
I can’t wait to show you what I do with them in the coming weeks. I hope the thrifting Gods shine upon you very soon…
