<\/p>\n

Hello, Friends, and welcome to the Blog today. I posted that we hadn’t been thrifting much in the past couple of weeks then went two days in a row. I’m going to share with you the second day’s finds in this Blog. They are a bit more eclectic than the first day.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We found this unusual teak wood cutting board with a bow knife made of the same teak wood. It’s quite heavy and I think will look really nice when some mineral oil is rubbed into the wood. Mineral oil is safe for food.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Next are these unusual bread baskets made from felted wool. They are from a Danish company called Norm Architects. The baskets are still in their original sealed packaging. I had not seen this before. They are quite attractive and in a winter setting could be warm and cozy.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This lovely red pitcher from Portugal is a nice addition to a kitchen with red accents. It will be great around the holidays for serving hot cider and other holiday beverages.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This is a steel container for barbecue sauce or oil. The lid has a brush attached for distributing the sauce or oil onto the meat, vegetables, chicken, etc. It’s really well made and I think would be a useful gift for that barbecue expert.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I do not normally purchase platters like the one above but I really liked this one and it was in good condition. It was made in Bavaria and the hand painted surface is quite clear. Perfect for this time of year.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Another platter rimmed in a textured yellow surface outlined in gold found its way into my basket. I found these great Christmas decorations as well. Love the bright colors and the old world look to these glass ornaments.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A slate cheese tray with stainless steel handles was the next find. I have a couple that are similar and they make great trays for cheeses and fruits for a crowd.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fell in love with this gorgeous amethyst candle holder. It really sparkles in the light and is just a touch mysterious.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This square, glass, oil candle holder is by Firelight Glass and is quite in demand. I have found several candles by this company recently and they are really nicely made. This one came in the original box with all the accompaniments.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A few little Halloween signs found their way into the cart. They are quite fun to have around the house.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This next part is all about frames and some art work. We ran across a 75% off sale. The most expensive frame we bought was originally priced at $12.50…….I never pay that much for a frame unless it’s a mirror and really spectacular. At 75% off that $12.50 frame was just $3.10 or so. Not too bad. The other frames were considerably less so I was really pleased with the results of the sale.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

This art work, in three parts, is by Carl Larssen and made to fit into this type of frame. It depicts a Swedish family at Christmas and will be a fun addition to a wall display for the holidays. It’s called, “Now It’s Christmas Again”.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

These are some other frames I found that day. I’ll be able to repurpose them for photos and projects in the next few months. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The last item was a really nice find. I had been to Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago looking at chalkboards and decided they were more money than I wanted to spend. I was working on some ways to make my own larger chalkboard. Then I ran across this one.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Straight from Hobby Lobby and the size I wanted. I paid less than $4.00 for it. I didn’t mind spending that amount at all.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It turned out to be a good Thrift shopping day with lots of interesting finds and some unexpected treasures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
