It’s time for Thrift Score Thursday!

thrift score thursday11

If you are new here, let me explain just what #thriftscorethursday is.  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.

Don’t feel like you need to save those finds for Thursdays! Yes, features are shared on our blogs and Instagram on Thursdays, but we’re all checking in on (and using!) the hashtag all week long. So, when you see/find it, feel free to share it!  And we love it when you tag your friends to play along, too!

Each week, Trisha from Black and White Obsession, Cassie from Primitive and Proper, Corinna from For My Love Of, Brynne from The Gathered Home and a weekly guest co-host 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.

So there’s something you should know about me…. I love bentwood chairs.  Like can’t get enough of them.  We have them at our dining table, and I’ve found others over the last couple years that I’ve brought to the barn, like these two that needed new seats, and these guys that I painted minty green.  My latest find is a set of 4 bentwoods like I’ve never seen before with such unique details on the chair backs!  I seriously contemplated swapping them out with my black ones, but I do love the simple lines on mine.  So off to Sweet Clover they headed!  Here they are after I freshly dropped them off on Tuesday.

Unique Bentwood ChairsYesterday Sarah and I worked on staging our spaces and pieces, and here’s what we came up with to infuse Spring color while still being very “us.”

You may know I am a sucker for a good vintage blue sofa, so I gave this photo from Thrifted Riches a big fat heart!tst thriftedriches

Jami at Second Hand Glam scored this amazing crewel work!  I love the shapes and cheerful colors!

This vintage doe paint by number was Emmy’s pick this week.  I had two pieces of art I was deciding between and she told me this one from Erin Coleen was the winner.

The girls at Red House West have such great style, and I am digging this dresser they scored! tst redhousewestYou can find them on instagram here.

Now go visit my cohosts to see their finds and features!

    Shannon is a dang thrifting prodigy. Her style is so defined and she always finds amazing pieces to compliment it! I am in awe of those chairs. I’ve seen a lot of bentwood chairs but never with that pretty detail!
