Angry Birds and Other Thrift Store Finds

I don't own an I-Phone. I have never played Angry Birds. 

But, that name kept popping into my head when I took a closer look at some of my latest thrift store acquisitions. Don't you agree - they just look ticked off! Nonetheless, I plucked them up for 59c each for the whole flock of them - four in all.

I was a happy bird to find this for $3.93! 

It's a tiny little rolling file cabinet. 

When I first spotted it, I thought it would be great for my future studio - but now I'm thinking it might be a good end table in my future living room. It will bring a little of the industrial vibe I'm going for!

It's a bit chippy and has a glued business card from a church on the top, but I think it will clean up nicely! 

I may sand it a bit and maybe give it another coat of spray paint. It opens in two places! 

Also for my house, I found a down/feather pillow form for $1, and a napkin for.25c. I will either use the napkin as a hand towel in the kitchen or make a pillow with it.

These signs will look good in my kitchen, along with another apple sign I found a couple of weeks ago:

If you're like me and are unsure what a Trattoria is, I looked it up on Dictionary.com. It is an inexpensive cafe that usually specializes in Italian food.


I got pretty excited to find this little corner shelf for a couple of bucks! 

I didn't notice it was damaged - sometimes I forget to check things out carefully enough when they're super cheap. I think I can sand it down and maybe cut the other side to match it.

I think it would look great in a bright color! But, I'll probably paint it chippy white. I might use it in my studio or possibly consign it.


I also found these little mirrors to consign. I'll spray paint them in bright orange or turquoise:

They were $1 each. I think they'll look cute with these:

They are vintage 1970's plastic items that I've seen on Etsy and Ebay. They bring a little vintage fun to eclectic environments. I can appreciate them, but they're not me, you know? I much prefer Angry Birds. 


Word for the Day: 


Ecclesiastes 10:20


Do not revile the king even in your thoughts, 
or curse the rich in your bedroom, 
because a bird of the air may carry your words, 
and a bird on the wing may report what you say.


A little bird told me to wish you a blessed Monday!
