Goodwill Bargoons ...

During lunch today, to get away from work, my friend Sophie and I decided to head to Goodwill to check and see if we could find any "treasures" (I think that's what I called them). I found three things and without breaking the bank, was pretty happy with my purchases!

Found these two solid wood candle holders - complete with a sharp little pin to keep the candles from falling over or moving around. I plan on painting these a nice colour which I think I'm going to try to add to the basement ... stayed tuned for the before and after of these babies!

Can't go wrong with the $1.99 price tag for them either ... I thought it was a good deal!



I have also been in love with milk glass for years. My mom has this huge cookie jar that's milk glass and I love it! I believe it was my grandmother's at one point. Anyways, I found tons of milk glass vases and little dishes there today, but settled on this simple but cute one ... I think I could put some fake greenery in it, or even snacks ... but I couldn't pass it up.

I love the little nubs on it.

At least for now, I found a really good use for the bowl ... holding all my taffy!
