Go Big or Go Home! That about sums up my finds from this past week. I just kept finding big beautiful vintage. Most of the larger items are going to end up on Craigslist except for the ones I am keeping. :)
I love this Danish Mid Century Bar Cart. I am trying so hard to find a place for it in our home!
This is what you call a statement lamp. It's so big! Certainly too big for our tiny little house, but man oh man how I love that big lucite base.
Vintage Pull Down School Maps. Heck to the Yeah! One is a world map from 1965 and the other is a US map from 1981. Again, another item I would LOVE to keep. They have been on my thrift bucket list for a while now- they would look so cool in a play room or kids room. . But they might just be too big for us. Sad Face.
Two Glass and Metal Tables. Keeping! We have been looking for a smaller sized coffee table for what feels like eons. I think these do the trick. The smaller red one fits quite nicely under the large one, I just pulled it out for the photo. I did a quick search online to see if I could learn about them, but found nothing. Do you have any idea??
Not everything I got was huge. A few found items will fit nicely in my secondary, AVintageMan Shop. They should make for some great last minute Fathers Day Gifts. :)
I love this 1940s Bingo cage. It has a gorgeous bakelite handle and most of the original wood numbered call letter balls.
A fun set of vintage whiskey glasses. Very dapper. :)
A Vietnam Era Zippo commemorating the USS John R. Craig. I wasn't able to capture it in a picture, but the owner engraved "Cheryl & Charles" on the lid. I think that is such a special detail.
A 1980 Scan- Globe. A globe that lights up and has its own weather station.
I found the mother load of pearl snap button/ western style shirts. Short sleeve and long sleeve. I washed them all yesterday so they smell nice and fresh...now I just need to photo, measure and list.
Love learning about what others "find?"
Hop on over to Her Library Adventures & Apron Thrift Girl to get your weekly fix. :)
You've scored all over the place! Love it all. I can't wait to get back to the hunt myself this week along with ya ;)
ReplyDeleteIt was a very good week ;) And I almost didn't make it out. Long live the hunt!
DeleteYou have to keep the maps! even if you have no room!
ReplyDeleteI know!! I'm trying to find a good place to stash them out of the way :) I'm leaning towards keeping 1 of them. I just have to convince the Mr. that this is how it is going to be.
Deletei am totally in love with your globe! i could never find one here :( the bar cart can be a place where you can put flowers outside in the patio maybe? great finds! xxbeverly
ReplyDeleteI want a bar cart just like that! I also do not have a place for it! Great finds.
ReplyDeleteI geeked out when I found the cart. I am trying so so so hard to find a place for it to fit :)
DeleteLoving everything you found this week! The bar cart is amazing, and those pull-down maps are on my wish list, too -- even though I don't have a place for them either. :) The whiskey glasses are awesome, too!
ReplyDeleteGreat finds! I love the pull-down maps and hope to find some when I actually have a house to put them in! Congrats on the coffee table too, it looks like it fits right in :)
ReplyDeleteLoving the bingo cage! Great find!!
ReplyDeleteGreat whiskey glasses!!
ReplyDeleteAlso the maps - if they are able to be cut (including the roller assembly unit at the top) I've seen them used as window binds - so cool!
I wouldn't give those up!
