Thrift Haul #3

It's that time of the week! I picked all of this up over the weekend, mainly Saturday.


take note of: the distressed leather jacket that is too small for my boyfriend so I get to keep it; the blue button up shirt that has Zodiac symbols all over it; the long sequined dress made in India, 100% silk; my cat.

take note of: new purse, a pile of fabric and linens that I have no idea what to do with, and, my favorite, salmon-colored gloves!

take note of: framed "Tom Kitten" illustration by Beatrix Potter (the thrift shop owner gave it to me for free).

take note of: my new dresser!

I got the dresser for $23. I was really excited to find out that it was made right here in Philadelphia. It was made in the Northeast on Rising Sun Ave. My boyfriend and I plan to fix it up a bit, but it's exactly what we were looking for and it fits perfectly in this spot. Overall, this weekend was a grand success. Not pictured is a lot of clothing I bought, mostly for myself. It's been a while since I sought out anything for my own use.

edit: I just discovered that the man who owned the furniture company who made my new dresser recently passed away. Here's his obituary from this past December. I was tickled to discover he was a Mason, I find that stuff pretty interesting.
