Ahhh. Nothing feels better than coming home after a long day and settling in for the night. I've put my hair up, taken my pants off, and boiled a nice cup of chai tea to accompany me for this blog post. Cheers for it being (almost) Friday! Tonight tea, tomorrow wine.
So this week we had a bit of flurries, and if there's one thing that you should do when there's a snow storm going on, it's take cover and hibernate go thrifting. So naturally, I headed to the nearest Salvation Army and scored some new gems!
Luckily, I was by myself so I could really get down to business. If you've shopped with me before, you'll know that I take FOREVER because I want to check everything out and evaluate the quality of every item before I actually commit to a purchase. This day I took about 25 minutes in the mug aisle alone. There were just so many to look at! My hard work paid off however because I found this adorable pastel pink and teal tea set for about $6/pair. Very cottage chic.
I also took my time walking down the linen aisle. There were a lot of vintage floral sheets from the 60s and 70s - my favourite decade for prints. Among these I found this floral tablecloth displayed in the photograph. For being 50+ years old, the colours are still quite vibrant and the linen is in great condition. It's a perfect addition to a retro kitchen! And looks quite nice with the tea cups, I might add ;)
And in case you're wondering - the brown suitcase in the photograph is also a thrifting score. I managed to find it at a Toronto Value Village (Queens) for only $5 in like new condition. What a find.
Can I get an amen?!
