Saturday Thrifting

Saturday thrifting comes to you a day early.

I managed to have Friday off work for a hair appointment, after working a 6 day week previously.

After a glorious 2 hours of pampering, I decided to hit some new and familiar op shops in the 

greater west.

First stop was a random sighting whilst driving towards another shop.... the call of a sign proclaiming

a cute little church hall op shop, with a few precious knick knacks.

not purchased - but looked so cute on the shelf.

a cute little bowl

New Zealand Ironstone plate

Next Stop - St Vinnie's Wentworthville

Not much to choose from, but did come across this cute little cup.

Next I was off to my favourite St Vinnies at Merrylands. They always have amazing stuff.

Four wine glasses to match some champagne glasses picked up earlier this year.

And a lot of jewellery means a lot a glass dishes to put them in.

And then, I hit what I thought was the Johnson Australia motherload:

After that excitement (10 plates for $5....), I thought I'd hit one last shop.

Salvos, North Parramatta.

And then, the actual Johnson motherload. I had planned to have a mismatched dinning set once I moved into my own home and after these two purchases I believe I have a enough plates for everyday use.

x 2 at 50% off

x 6 at 50% off

and then to top that off, I discovered another fold away cake stand

and a copy of Silence of the Lambs - needed for July book club - for $2.50

And here is a special something I saw for my Dad - he loves kitsch Pope stuff.

And so ends another week thrifting...........might have to stay away for a while...LOL
