Happy Thursday!  Guess what?!?!  I have some exciting news!  From now on I am going to be hosting Thrift Score Thursdays with two of my favorite thrifting ladies!  Trisha and Brynne have been hosting #thriftscorethursday for a while now, and they’ve had guest hosts the last few months.  I was lucky enough to guest host once before, and then wouldn’t leave them alone until they invited me invited myself was invited to be a part of their crew!  Check out my new banner…

Thrift Score Thursday Cassie

And this week, we have an amazing guest host, Anna of Le Crafteur!  You will have to visit her blog to see her awesome find! 🙂

If you are new to #thriftscorethursday here is how it works.  You thrift, share your finds on instagram or twitter using the thrift score thursday hashtag, and we feature our favorite finds, plus we each share a find of our own!  Fun, right?

So this week, here are my favorite finds from YOU!

How amazing are these brass shelves that urvintagegirl found?

Aren’t they so glamorous?!?!  How would you style them?  I have some ideas, in case she ever wants to, ya know, give them to me.  Head on over to give her photo a big fat heart and follow her to see more of her finds!

Now, this one won’t come as a surprise to you, but this lamp that kainable found needs to come home to mama (me).

Now it’s time to check out my finds!  I have two to share with you and they will give you a little sneak peek into some changes I’ve made in my guest room (sharing on Tuesday!).

thrift score thurs rug and trunkDo you spy a couple new things?  I’ve been on the hunt for an old worn red and navy persian rug for our dining room in a 9×12 or 8×10 size.  I’ve come up short there, but I did find this small persian worn rug for just $14!  I layered it with the existing rug and just love it in the guest room! (which happens to be loaded with thrifted finds like the chair and dresser below, too!)

Did you also see this fabulous vintage metal trunk?  I loved the writing on it, and that it was local.  I found it for $20 at a huge pop up flea market put on by a local charity recently.  It’s nice and clean on the inside, too, so soring extra blankets.

    So I don’t get this (because I am elderly)…you take a pic on instagram on Thursday and use the hashtag and someone checks them all out? Do I have to find it on Thursday? Love the trunk, btw.

    Thrift Ninja IN THE HOUSE! Woot woot!

    That trunk is amazing. I freakin love it. I want to change my name to Mr. Jerome Levin and move to Derby Manor-Drive so I can stop by and be all like, “Oh – you found my trunk. Thanks for hanging onto it for me. I’ll be taking it home now.”
    (Note to self: will need to work on my cross-dressing skills.)

    Seriously, I’m so excited you are joining us Cassie!!!
