There really hasn't been too much thrifting recently because we are trying to save some dough for the trailer and other things. I did manage to find a few thing here and there...
I have been looking for another cabinet like this blonde one that I have my Tiki collection in. The picture in the link shows the beginning of my collection and now the Tikis are busting the seams of the cabinet. I wanted another one to flank the room and hold some of my Tikis and books. I found this one that is the exact same model but in a dark finish. It does have different knobs than the blonde cabinet and the glass is missing. I think I am going to paint it to match the blonde cabinet. The finish on this dark one isn't quite as nice as it looks in the picture. It won't look exactly like the blonde cabinet once painted but oh well. I may also get some glass cut to fit.
I picked up this Milton Bradley US map puzzle from 1961. I have been looking for one of these for a while. This will be used in a project for the Shasta trailer. I got the cabinet and the puzzle for 25 bucks at a estate sale.
I found these tapered legs at a thrift store for $1. Not a bad deal. I don't have any plans for them right now but you never know.
This isn't actually a recent find. I found this plant stand at a swap meet for a dollar. It needs a repaint that I just haven't got around to doing.
I found this circular plant stand a few days ago at a thrift store for $4.50. It too needs a repaint. None of the welds on either stand seem to be broken so I think both were a pretty good deal.

Love the plant stands. The round one is a great find!
Great cabinet--I usually find things like that in MUCH worse condition. I do want to tell you the floor is incredible!
Love your site! I found a plant stand identical to the round one out for trash pick-up a few years back. It's great!
I'm happy to see someone else buys legs. I cannot pass up a set of legs especially if they have the brass on the ends. Cool finds.
I love the map! love!

I need 4 tapered legs for a coffee table I have. Maybe 14". Wanna sell these or know of a place where I can get them?
Love the floor tiles. the checkered floor looks so elegant.
Indeed. Elegant!
Oh, I love the map.
This is a record rack. A neighbor has one.
