Sunday, the boy and I hit up the antique mall and thrift stores in the area. I saw a bunch of things I desperately wanted to take home, but my latest camera purchase has put a hold on buying things for the house. I brought the boy along for the ride and gave him my iPhone camera to shoot video of our little adventure. I think he took video of every creepy baby doll in those store, but I edited them out of the video below so you wouldn’t get nightmares from reading my blog. You’ll thank me later. After a bit of rummaging through old junk we stopped at a Steak & Shake for a milkshake and grub. It was a great day to end the weekend AND the sun was shinning!
*Video taken with 8mm Vintage Camera iPhone app.
* I thought long and hard about buying this little family or brass owls. They were only $12! I left without them, but if they are still there the next time I stop in, they’ll be mine.
* I also thought long and hard over this $20 hand-made blanket. I just loved the colors and it was soft like it had been loved for years.
*Was I stupid for walking away from this perfect camel color coat for $65??? I regret not buying this! Might have to go back.
*I’m dying for a green retro kitchen. These will be perfect one day. I’m sure I could find them again.
*I had to take this picture. Look how it matches The Veda House perfectly!
I hope all of you had a great weekend and have started your week off on the right foot! Here’s to a Happy Monday!
so much cute stuff!! Love the video
I wish I had a thrift store around me! I used to not be into old and used items, but I now see how great, and cheap, they can be!
I love that each item has a story. Everything feels previously loved.
The owls are so cute!! And thanks for the vid, I have never seen a thrift store before! x
My goodness, I love these pictures (and video!) so much. I want to go thrifting with you, hehe. I love that jacket!! Oh, you definately should go back and get it! Hope you are having a wonderful Monday darling! xo

Go back for the family of owls! I just bought owl salt shakers a couple weeks ago from Calhoun Street Emporium. Have you been there?
I have been there. I bought my mustard colored leather chair their. Always great deals there. It’s one of my favorites.

Isn’t it always like that when we tell ourselves we’re “just looking” we find the greatest stuff at the thrifts?!? xoxo
