Thrifting in September

Fall Thrifting is great. All the Fall and Winter holidays are on the way and Thrift Stores are beginning to pull out their holiday merchandise. I have been trying to find some ceramic jack o lanterns to use for this season but they have been really difficult to find. I have three large ones but I needed some smaller ones to distribute around the house for decorations.

At one store I was lucky enough to find a bonanza of pumpkins including some white ones. I also found three medium-sized ceramic jack o lanterns. I was so happy. The pumpkins were $3 – $4 each. The smaller pumpkin was $2. I was very happy.

We went to one other store where I found the remaining items. Starting with the picture above I found a great tablecloth in heavy damask fabric. It is very pretty and hangs beautifully.

Next are these great Fall placemats with a background of dark brown and embroidered Fall leaves in red, yellow and green. These were brand new and still had the stickers. The placemats were 75 cents each. I think they look great against the tablecloth.

These Fall plates were another find and I’ll be using them soon in a table setting. Love those Autumn colors.

This coming soon sign was really different and only $1 so it ended up in my cart.

The sign above was cute but absolutely filthy. I bought it for $1 and brought it home and cleaned it up with just soap and water. Doesn’t it look great now?

This was another inexpensive purchase. It will hold a picture or saying and I loved the rustic red color.

The other two signs I found were a wonderful “Gather” sign in dark brown and gold. This was a bit more but is actually a wooden sign. It cost $3. The other sign is very rustic and also wooden. “Eat, Drink & Be Merry”. I’m really looking forward to all these signs.

This was a really good Fall haul. You’ll be seeing all these things in future posts.
