I’m going to show you the same 1 foot wide sliver of wall 3 different times today. And all of these pictures were taken in the past month. Why? because I just could not decide on what to put here! Only someone who has a problem would worry so much over a small bit of space. I’m sure most people would do nothing or throw up some photos and call it a day. It’s been bothering me since day one though.

My first solution was to hang a row of these adorably small baskets you can see to the far right of the picture (never did get a good shot of them-whoops!). I liked them but my husband bumped them often so I pulled them to use elsewhere.

Then I tried this basket because I like the design the weave makes on the bottom. But it wasn’t the right shape.

And thennnnn. This past weekend I was picking through to “wood decor” shelves at my fave thrifting spot and found this pretty piece. It’s actually plastic. Poo. But still really pretty and a mere $2 so it came home with me.

And now, I’ve gone through the Thrift Score Thursday feed and have narrowed my favorites down to 4 to share with you today. The first one I just just had to feature is this collection of mexican painted pottery. What a coincidence after last week, amiright? Mellabobella, if you’re selling them- call me! I love them.

These open shelves from Jessica just made me happy. With the state of chaos around me 24/7 at home. It gives me hope when I see a pretty and well styled shelf like this one.

And speaking of well styled, isn’t this wooden cubby adorable with all those air plants? I can’t keep those things alive to save my life but these ones look so happy. And the elephant is the perfect touch.

And, for my last feature, this gorgeous boho-goodness has me like, “Damnnnn Bee, back at it again with the textiles!” I can’t get enough of that vine, nor can I get enough of Bee’s gorgeous Etsy shop.

That wraps up the thrift celebration here today. Be sure you visit and give me a follow on Instagram because I do, always, feature my features there as well. @adesignerathome. And the fun doesn’t stop here. If you haven’t been by to visit them yet, there are 3 other hosts of this fab party and this week we have our friend Ariel joining us as a guest host. So make sure you stop by her blog, too.

Here’s The Rules!

• We want you to participate! Hit up your local thrift stores, craigslist, yard sales, estate sales, side of the road, anything! Thrifty doesn’t necessarily mean from a thrift store. We want to see your good deals, wacky finds and treasures.

• Want to get featured? Add the #thriftscorethursdsay hashtag, Follow the hosts (@the_gathered_home, @primitiveandproper, @adesignerathome and @maggieoverbystudios) and tag a friend to play along, too!
• Each week, Cassie from Primitive and Proper, Brynne from The Gathered Home, Maggie from Maggie Overby Studios and Myself (A Designer At Home) will pick a favorite thrift score or two to feature! So please note that by linking up with #thriftscorethursday, you are giving us permission to share your finds via social media or on our blogs.

Welcome to another week of thrift scores on Thursdays. This week is a bittersweet week for us because we’re saying farewell to one of our old hosts and a welcome to a new host. You never know what life will bring you, and because our dear friend Trisha’s plate was full she’s stepped aside. The sweet part is that our other friend Maggie will be joining us now as a host. And she’s good! If you’ve been around for a bit, you know we love to feature her finds! In fact, here’s one she shared just last week:

Those chairs are incredible. And speaking of chairs, if you were here earlier this week, you’ll know I just did a little project involving dining room seating. I found an older model world market bench for dirt cheap and swapped the legs out to look like one I had been coveting.

But since you regulars have already seen that, the real score I’m sharing today is this adorable mexican, painted bird candle holders. It’s adorable and I love the colors. Plus I’ve totally developed a “thing” for tapered candles so the more holders the merrier. I have it sitting on the dresser that I’m using as a buffet in the dining room.

And now that I’m done showing off what I’ve been spending money on, how about what you’ve all been buying? Ha, it’s all for the good of saving treasures from the dump, right?

Da Features:

Awesome stuff, right? Be sure to “heart” their photos and send some IG love their way. And participate!
