Random Things
Usually when I hit the thrift store I stick to the clothing and shoe aisles. Yesterday I took a detour through the housewares section and ended up finding a few fun pieces. I couldn't resist this pretty little vintage vase. I'm not a smoker, but I'm sure I'll find a good use for these square little translucent glass ash trays. I think I'll line them up on my dresser to keep earrings and small jewelry in. Who could walk away from a set of Return of the Jedi glasses? Apparently not me. In more apparel related finds, I also scored this red suede fringed purse which I'm looking forward to wearing with little black dresses and sandals.
Love the ashtray idea, now i want ashtrays!
ReplyDeleteOMG I had those Jedi glasses when I was a kid. Are yoy by any chance planning on selling them?? I would love to own them!!!!! If not, I'm so glad anyway you're giving them a good home!!!
ReplyDeleteH&M has a small, fringe purse almost identical to yours! but the color is not red, instead brown. cuuute. Now I feel like going back and getting it!
ReplyDeleteCute ashtrays! Now I want the same too!
ReplyDeleteThose drinking glasses are fab. I tend to neglect the homeware section too, though I did once find a very nice tea pot..
