new goodwill finds!

 You all know how much I love Goodwill!

Here's the round-up from my latest excursions...

 A "log" votive holder ~ I stuck an apple in it instead of a candle.

This cute nesting hen was brand-new (still had store stickers)!

Love these hand-blown glass birds. I have a smaller one from years ago.

Artist's signature and year (1991) is on the bottom, but I can't quite make the name out.

Pair of rooster tealight holders - in perfect colors for fall and a

Thanksgiving vignette.

These darling little birds came in a package of six ~

all nestled in a little box. I kept three and gave three to my mom.

I have one under a cloche and one in a bird's nest.

 Oh no, another bird! I just might need some aviary intervention!

This white bird doesn't have any markings on the bottom,

but I still thought it was so pretty.

Rooster picture that will be great in my kitchen

when I rearrange with my rooster decor. 

(I change decor and vignettes often.)

Sorry for the glare (and my shadow) from the glass...

"Sparrows" painting by the Canadian artist, Valerie Pfeiffer.

There's not a lot of info out there on the internet about her,

and I only found a couple of her pieces for sale, but they are quite pricey.

I could try and sell this piece on eBay, but I like it so much that

I'm going to find somewhere to hang it in my home for now.

I normally don't buy used shoes, but these were like-new Aerosoles

and sooo comfortable!

A folk art cat painting...

A turkey tealight holder, perfect for Thanksgiving.

Last up, a pretty piece of pottery.

I've been drawn to pottery vases lately ~ need to dig out all my pieces

and make a new vignette! :-)

That's it for my treasure hunting at Goodwill for awhile.

Now that I'm not working outside the home, I have to curb my spending.

Even little things at Goodwill can add up.

My mom just rented a booth in an antique shop and I will

be helping her set it up next week. I will be putting some of my

things in her booth, too ~ so I hope this venture will be successful!
