Thrift Finds Repurposed Upcycled

I just love thrifting, junking, and vintage items too!  The first picture above shows a few things that I had found a while ago while thrifting. A couple of the pieces in the picture were used to make the cupcake stands that you see below my thrift finds. 

There are many names used in reference to such pieces. Cupcake stand, amber pedestal stand, vintage inspired, candle holder, soap dish, jewelry dish, bathroom organizer, wedding decor, home decor, and the list goes on. I enjoy creating some of these pieces as they can be versatile, but also have different uses for them. One thing I like is the idea of flipping these over using the plate as the stand, and then using the adorable glass candy dishes as a candy dish, candle holder, trinket dish, jewelry holder, maybe some floating candles, and just so many possibilities!

The 2 handmade items viewed above are listed with my LilacsNDreams ecrater shop. I would love for you to visit, see all the pictures, and the details of things. Make sure to contact Me with any specific questions that you might have. 

Thanks so much for sharing your time with Thrifty Shop Girl, and hope to see you again soon. Till then my friends "Happy Thrifting"

Thrift Store Yard Sale Finds Repurposed and Upcycled

I love junking, vintage, and repurposing! I love finding things that can be reused with just a little bit of cleaning, and sometimes maybe a little touch up too. I also enjoy creating pieces in a new way to enjoy them with our homes. As you will see above the first picture is from what I shared with you all on Monday, June 10, 2013. I love glassware, and I enjoy things that are wooden too. You know a little bit of glue, a little bit of paint, this goes with that, and you have something new again. 

From what was shared you can see that I used a couple of the pieces to repurpose, or upcycle them. I attached the blue, and white small plates to some gorgeous cobalt blue glass candle holders making these pedestal stands you are viewing. The possibilities for these kind of pieces are endless. Use them as cupcake stands, candle holders, soap dishes in the bathroom, jewelry dishes on your dressers, they are gorgeous with wedding decor, and the possibilities are endless. 

If you would like to see all the pictures, and descriptions for these items visit my shop at Ecrater. Any questions make sure to contact Me as I would be happy to assist you. 

Thanks so much for visiting with Thrifty Shop Girl, and hope to see you all back again soon. Take care, and have fun thrifting and junking too!

Thrift Store Yard Sale Finds Over the Weekend

Thrift Store Yard Sale Finds Over Weekend

Above you will see pictures for a small amount of some thrift store, or yard sale finds that I had found over the weekend. Not really a whole lot. It has been raining, and when I was out of town I was seeing quite a few yard sale signs. Yet, with the rainy weather the mood just did not feel right to get out, get wet with the hard rains, and you know what I mean. The rains had lifted briefly for a bit, and I did get out for some small finds you are seeing above. 

The two blue, and white small plates you are seeing have already been upcycled to stands. Oh, yeah, at an antique business that uses barns on their property I found 2 cobalt blue glass candle holders that I used for the stands with them. I will have to dig the pictures up to show you how they turned out. Better yet, if you would like to see them I do have them listed with my LilacsNDreams shop at Ecrater too. Adorable little pieces, and I take satisfaction in the pieces that I find that come together to mate. 

Thanks so much for sharing your time with Thrifty Shop Girl today. Hope the weather has been good for ya'll. Hopefully you were able to get out and about with your thrifting, and junking over the weekend. Happy Thrifting Everyone, and see you all again soon. Toodles!
