I'm thinking this might be why I have a garage full of stuff I never use or I'm sick of.
Time for a garage sale! Oh, that's another positing(coming up).
Anyway, I came across a few treasures I just couldn't pass up.
I've been crazy about trophy bowls for the past couple years. I found these in a little antique store in Bothell a fews weeks ago. Don't think I paid more than 30 bucks for both of them.
Love this one, it's huge and it's from a local golf club in 1972(a year before I was born).
It's great for ice and drinks.
This one's smaller. It's from a sailing race in Santa Barbara.
Next.......
I found this footed truffle dish at a Home Goods store in Palm Desert last week.
What a steal, $9. 99.
Wish we had a Home Goods here in Washington.
I love that store. Problem is that I never have enough room in my suitcase.
Wah!
Lastly, I found this little guy for $5.95 at The Alley, ANOTHER store we DON'T have here!
Does he look a little angry or is it just me?
It's funny how a little retail therapy (on the cheep) brightens up your house and your "tude".
I say when life gives you lemons,
hit a few discount stores;)

Megan,
ReplyDeleteI love trophy bowls too! You have some great ones there... The lemons are pretty.
Your new blog header looks great btw! Great photos.
You asked about my camera I use a Canon 500D the T1i with the video ability. It came out in May of 2009. I only have a basic knowledge of cameras. My brother is a photographer so you think I would know more.;0
Have a good weekend. Now I want to go hunting for some finds of my own!!
;)
Beth
Thanks Beth. I love photography!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to check into your Canon.
I still don't understand all of the features of my stinkin"Nikon.
Good luck on hunting for treasures this weekend, have a good one!
Your header is so pretty! I love the trophy bowl. I collect trophy cups. My husband thinks I'm weird but they are fun to put pens and markers in!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm still feeling my way around with blog design.
ReplyDeleteI swear, if I had a dollar for every time my husband rolled his eyes at one of my quirky interests I'd be a rich woman! He's been happy with me lately though, I've laid off the furniture rearranging.
I loved your post with the chick and the egg, it cracked me up!
