Thrift Finds :: Forever Decorating

It has been quite a while since I have shared any thift finds. I haven't really been heading to the thrift stores too often in an attempt to save money. However, in the last few months I have picked up a few things here and there.

I almost died when I spotted this beauty. The colours are just so amazing that I had to take it home. I was going to put it on the floor and store some paper in it but this pretty thing got promoted to my desktop where I use it to store my everyday notebooks. Something so lovely can't be left on the floor!

The new piece in this photo is the flower paint by number on the far right. This is my second flower paint by number, I just think they are really pretty. This one is evern signed by the artist on the front. It's nice to see someone who is proud of their work. Hey, I think I would be too if I ever finished a paint by number. Those things look intense!

I picked up this cute little umbrella ring holder a little while ago so that I would have a cute way to display my rings. At least I think it is supposed to be a ring holder. That's what I'm using it for anyways!

And finally...the cutest little kittens ever (other than my own) smiling and looking silly. I can't really turn down stupidly cute looking cat anything.

I love slowly adding new little things to our home. I think it will forever be a work in progress!

Today I am off to Toronto to attend a photography event put on by Blurb. I'm pretty excited! I hope you guys all have a great Tuesday.
