Thrifting Finds

Thought I would share with you all my latest finds. Love this ornate gold mirror. Don’t think it will stay gold for too long but I just love the wreath feature at the top.

The lamp bases are not old but very elegant all the same. They were brand new in the box.  I love how the cut glass twists round the steel rod. Have to make up some shade for these beauties.
My best find by far was this box of crystal knobs. I could not believe my eyes.  There was 35 of them in the box – Whow – Can’t wait to use these beauties.
Hope your all having a good week.
