Thrifty Thursday: More Diversity Finds.

I went to Diversity Thrift on my lunch break a few weeks ago, and was on a hunt for some more accessories to bring in some color or shine to the living room and dining room. My hope is to bring in some floating shelves in both spaces to hold some cute treasures that show more of my personality. Since, you know, those Americanized Sofas aren’t bringing enough sexy back for you. In due time they will come, young grasshoppers. You know I’m slow.

First up, that milk jug was way too cute to pass up. I want to paint it soooo bad, but I don’t know if I’ll really have the heart to. I love it though, also, it was 2 DOLLAH.

That cute little owl is part of my ever growing collection of Avon containers. It’s not intentional, but Avon is the bomb at designing attractive aftershave and perfume containers. My mom had a collection when I was a kid. He ended up in the bathroom. I’ve been looking for an ivory colored owl to go in there forever. I almost gave up hope and was going to spray paint one then OMG this one said “pick me! pick me!”

This little pink cup will probably end up in the kitchen. I was thinking about making a little coffee station, and since we use splenda packets, we can stick them in here next to our Kuerig.

That little teacup really shined up. After I bought these two dishes and polished them up, I developed another obsession. How cute did it turn out? And that sweet pink rose on top melts my heart.

Then the pony. Oh my god the carousel pony.

I want to paint him too. I love spray paint. But the colors are so sweet, I don’t know if I will. He’s still looking for a home, so I may do a switcheroo around until he gets one.
