The Good News: I found my camera charger!  (... it was still plugged in to the outlet where I last charged the battery. *sigh*)

The Better News: More pictures!  I went to four of the five Goodwills in the area yesterday (the fifth is... icky) and have also been frequenting a couple of resale shops, a used book store, and this inexpensive little antique store I'd never been to before.  So I have a lot to share... ;D

Lots o' good stuff... and mugs, of course! )

I've picked these items up since my last post, a few weeks ago. At another community member's suggestion, I also have checked out the Housing Thrift store in Brooklyn -- AWESOME stuff. I happened to go there on a half-price day on housewares, so everything I bought there was half price! I didn't have time to check out the clothes, so I only got the housewares. The rest of the stuff is from my favorite SallyArmy shop, with one Freecycled item.

Very picture-heavy post under the cut. Everything is safe for work.

Here goes!Happy happy joy joy thrift joy! )

So those are my latest finds. I hope you've enjoyed my post! I certainly enjoyed finding the stuff. Now if I can only get my husband to forgive me for going thrifting again...!

ETA PSA: I know there are people here who love the mushroom stuff. I spotted a couple of cute mushroom canisters at the Salvation Army on Steinway Street in Astoria, Queens, NY on Wednesday. I didn't note what they were marked, but they probably weren't much. If you're local and are into that stuff, check it out!

My mom got this GORGEOUS dress for me yesterday at a bag sale for about $5!



I think it's vintage. I'm pretty sure, but the label [R & K Originals] supposedly still makes dresses, so this could be from 1965 or 2005. I'm a vintage newbie, but does anyone know how I could tell?

Cut for love )
