I went to a local church thrift that often has accessories and after regrouping when the cutest vintage bamboo dresser was sold, I looked at the smalls.
I grabbed the silverplate Revere bowl on principle. I wasn't sure exactly what it would corral. Right now it sits on my little bar table full of corks that are awaiting some Pinterest project.
It joins another recent thrift find, the julep cup trophy that now holds straws and one lone swizzle stick.
I grabbed this tray after looking at a few others.
I had planned to paint or do some sort of makeover but I kind of like the patina its got. It is not exactly glam but it holding a variety of un-glam things like bills, rejection letters and a few sketchy report cards.
Have you "thrifted" anything good lately?

Love your goodies. These posts make me want to stop by more thrift stores, but I just can't seem to find the time lately. Let's go to Lucketts Saturday...will call.
