I go to my local Goodwill Stores about twice a week. A lot of the times I don’t grab anything, but I take pictures of items that, to me, have potential. Here are a few items that I found recently
These two pedestal tables would make great coffee/accent tables placed in front of a settee or a small sofa…
I would paint them or even gold leaf them!
Three chairs anyone?! For $25, I would use them in the kitchen (now that I think about it, I should have grabbed these!). DANG…
for $65, I should have ran out of the store with this on my back… But, I didn’t get it. Now if I want one, I’ll probably have to spend about $300-500 for it at an antique shop…DANG!
Nothing says vintage like a framed “bartman” poster! Oh well, I would have taken the other piece in the middle, but I really didn’t want to spend $45 on it…Looking at it now, it probably would have been perfect over my fireplace after the framed was painted…DANG!
$6 each…brass painted a funky color and BAM…, but I didn’t get them…DANG!
Oh well, I can’t buy everything, right?! Do you think this stuff is still there? Yeah, me either
What have you found at the thrift store lately?

Would you believe I have two of those pedestal tables in my shop right now - and they are painted gold! Sounds like we are of like mind! Great finds, all. We need a warehouse...
Those pedestal tables are FABULOUS!
My Goodwill doesn't have good finds like those.
Oh I would kill for that dresser! I've been keeping my eyes peeled for one around here and nothing. For $65, that is unbelievable!!!
Gm Laekitha, That chest was amazing, i wonder what kind of wood was underneath the paint job. Loved the curves, I think you are going to regret not getting that. It has such wonderful lines to it!! timing is everything isn't it?
Those cute little brass light fixtures had a darling shape, kind of Chinoiserie looking. OOOOh down a long hallway and painted a fun color for $6, oh my!!!! You are making me want to go GW hunting!!!
Thank you again for the headsup on the fabric, you saved me so much time!!! You are the best!! Have a wonderful day,kathysue
i saw those tables the other day and debated about getting one to go between 2 slipper chairs i recently bought. great lines!
The dresser and light fixtures are amazing!!!
I haven't been thrift shopping in while, i'm in the process of purging what is not needed in our home, yep my nesting is kicking in :)
Great finds, I cant beleive you didnt snatch up that dresser! It would be fun painted a pretty aqua or yellow.
Nice finds...Love the chest! I would have ran out with it too!
It's so funny - I used to hate Goodwill shopping with my mom when I was a kid and now I LOVE it! I missed out on the most beautiful headboard about a month ago - DANG!
You are totally making me want to run out the door to my local Goodwill- those tables and that dresser- YES!
That dresser would have been the perfect piece for your family room makeover. You could have painted it and used it in a corner to stash some of the kids toys. It's probably long gone now though, right?
What!? You didn't get those adorable little pagoda light fixtures?!?!?!?!?!?!? I am mad at you. Janell

Very very soon, I'm going to be joining you on one of these trips!!
