Nifty Thrift Picks of the Week (3.04.09)

Sharing my weekly faves from the Nifty Thrift flickr group where people post pics of their nifty thrifty finds. In other words a weekly spot for me to publicly covet the finds of others :)

1. Ok Anja, you had me at: "He has holes in his belly for hanging him on the wall, so it looks like he's climbing up your walls." - So cute!

2. I love how beautifully color-coordinated Alexa's thrift finds from her Hawaiian vacation are, and that eco-grocery bag is adorable :D

3. This vintage flower press is beautiful and also happens to be for sale here for $12 if you're interested. It even has some pressed flowers still in it!

Hahaha....when I read "He has holes in his belly for hanging him on the wall, so it looks like he's climbing up your walls." on Anja's blog...I just thought "I want it!"

Wonderfully unique items! The squirrel takes the cake.

Alexa said...

What an honor to make your list! I want to thrift in Hawaii all the time. And that flower press is amazing!

Caroline said...

I want a squirrel climbing on my wall!

Coveting other's finds is part of the thrill!!

I WANT THAT SQUIRREL!!!!

Oh my goodness, he is amazing.

I keep finding deers that fall into the same category, but they are often at antique stores or flea markets and tend to be priced at $40+.

Thanks for the great post. Glad I found you.

XOXO

Aargh, I forever and always want all of the nifty thrift finds.
I am in that group on flickr but haven't looked through it in ages!!
It makes me so motivated to shop, which is bad news.
But now... i'm off to shop after reading this haha.
Have a lovely day!
