Only done a little thrifting lately. Life gets busy and somethings got to give. But, I have found a few interesting items when I have stopped by thrift stores in my path... like these Return of the Jedi sheets from the 1980's. My two older sons were thrilled to see them. Second son said I should give them to the son I loved best... him :) Now I have to sell them for sure.
Update: This set sold for $34.99 But It Now
Found these Ronald McDonald sheets from the 1970's at the same store. Unfortunately, the child's name had been written in permanent black marker in the middle of the sheets... guess they went to camp. Wonder if they would still sell on Ebay? Whatcha think?
Update.... the Ronald McDonald set sold for Buy It Now at $49.99. Originally, I had not added a buy it now option, but someone contacted me. They may have sold for more, but due to some staining and permanent marker labeling I felt it was a good price.
These vintage cookie cutters were picked up at an estate sale. We had these growing up, only in aluminum color. Think these will not be sold.
This Woolworth Weaving Loom came from the same sale. I remember making potholders with these things... loved it.
This sweet sterling vase came from a yard sale in my neighborhood... 50 cents.
Update: Sold for $9.99.
This Susan Bates knitting needles set also came from a garage sale. Paid $5, which was too much.
What great thrift finds have you made lately?

Oh what a GREAT bunch of finds....ESPECIALLY the sterling vase....!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI reckon the Macca sheets will sell....You may very well find they'll go to someone who wants to upcycle them in any case....!!
Cheers,

I looove the Return of the Jedi sheets, I swear every boy in the 1980s had those ;) My twin brothers did. I love that the McDonald's sheets sold for so much! Definitely need to set up a pop culture Etsy shop! I have enough junk to do it...
