Awesome! I love the bamboo chair! It would great as an office chair! What fun!
That $10 headboard, spray painted in an amazing yellow or any freaking color, would be the ish! Those are some great finds. I love a good thrifting excursion and can't wait to get our new house since I have NO place in my condo anymore to store anything. Those were some great finds for your bookcase as well. sweet!
Are you kidding me!! We don't have thrift stores like that in Nashville. Wow!! - Brandy
Now that's a really great day!
Definitely a great day thrifting! And you know I love it. That headboard could be amazing - I could even see the caned portion being upholstered over and the frame painted gold. It would be so dramatic. Love your bookshelf goodies and the lamp!
I am so jealous. I was just talking to my friend from Florida the other day (I'm originally from Arkansas) about HOW expensive even the thrift stores are here in California. Back home you can find great deals like that but out here they rack up the price and call it "vintage chic". Sooooo frustrating.
I really am not a good thrifter- I need you to come tutor me!
Charmaine, that thrift store is pure heaven -it's so big with lots of great furniture! I love the spindle side table painted in a nice glossy color, also love that headboard (need one for my guest room), and everything else is great! I love that horse head the most for your book shelf!
Where is this amazing thrift store? I have not been able to find anything lately - apparently all the good stuff is in your area! Hope you and your readers can stop by and enter my Novica giveaway. It's a $50 gift card and you'll be supporting artists around the world!

Wow! I LOVE that bamboo chair - it'd be so pretty reupholstered in navy! And that headboard! A little clean up and some paint would make it so fabulous :)
Awesome finds! You need to start your own shop with all your thrift store/refirbed pieces. You'd make a killing!!
OMG amazing! I live in New Zealand and we do not have thrift stores like that here. I am obsessed with thrifting and do it often. You hit the jackpot! Yels x

Congrats on those wonderful finds! Did you end up purchasing the brass shelves? If not, it might be worth the drive to Milwaukee for me. I've been searching for some just like them for ages, but they're always out of my price range!
Hi Carolyn, no I didn't. I can get it for you if you want. It is $75 at the ReStore but they are having a 50% off sale on furniture until Saturday. Let me know. I can check if it's still there.
wow Charmaine, you struck gold. I had luck at the restore, too, in my post tomorrow. I love those handles...and the price!
GREAT floor lamp. I wish that was at MY RESTORE!
I would have snagged it.
Have a great weekend.
