Thrifted
This is a post to share a bit of my thrift findings for my home. I was never skeptical about good thriftings. there is always something that will enlight our home decorations, don't you think? Plus, we end paying less and therefore we save some bucks for other things.
This blue dresser below was painted with all sorts of girly colors. I brought it home and I knew how much I would have to sand and scrape, but my husband wanted to play with it, I chose the color and he had the idea of making some sort of patina, I am not sure how it's called here in the US, but painting with 2 shades of acqua color. I loved it. Now he had finished an old window that we will hang in the living room with photographs, but I will show you later, because I did not order the photos yet.
All the toys on the dresser are vintage finds that are part of the decorations. On the wall you see those three prints, they are actually pages of a vintage kids book. It's a simple room and the most important is that he is happy and proud of it.
For our kitchen I have found this set of red vintage style table and stools to fill in that spot beside the freezer. I also love those toys on top of the freezer. They were sold for less than 10 dollars after Christmas at Michaels. We just need to be in the right place at the right time, hu? With a little bit of patience, we can decorate a beautiful home for much less...if we are not too materialistic or do not care much for expensive stuff...we do all right, agree?
