DEL'S THRIFT WAREHOUSE, A LITTLE PIECE OF SECOND HAND HEAVEN!

Hi there, welcome to Sweet Tea N' Salty Air, have a seat and pour yourself some coffee cause I have a fabulous place to share with you! As you all know I am a crazy thriftier, I am always hunting for new treasure. On a recent venture with Mr. Sweet Tea N' Salty Air we discovered this amazing thrift warehouse and the best part is the prices are so very reasonable !They accept paypal and have mailing service as well. They out do any thrift store that I have ever been to, the thing I love most is they have just about anything you could ever want to keep house. If your like me a collector of the olden they have that to. They have so many treasures that if you are planning a trip you should plan on spending at least an hour to scan all the many treasures.


This piece is a beauty and reasonably priced, what I like best is that they have some vintage mixed with thrift new that really brings a terrific image how you can decorate with vintage and throw some new in there too!

 I fell in love with this wooden doll wardrobe so I just had to buy it  15.00!
 Grab a basket ! beautiful vintage doilies ,glassware, lamps and pictures, what is that olden expression my great gram would say??? Yes, they have everything from but the kitchen sink but I cannot lie they probably do have the kitchen sink!
 Pictures galore! I bought the first one for the new Lakehouse room!
 A mans paradise! tools galore old and new! 
 What a stunning cabinet! 60$ only , I see that with a coat of chalk paint and some chicken wire doors!
 Table sets galore!
Odds N ends galore!

 
What a lovely picnic basket 10$ price tag! And the dresser is a nice piece!

 A comfy overstuffed chair and ottoman , clean and priced to sell!

Fishing items, dishes galore, glasses just about anything to set your table!

SOME GREAT THRIFT STORE FINDS ! WELCOME TO SWEET TEA N' SALTY AIR!

Hi there, nice of you to stop by. Have you been thrifting lately?   I have come across some really neat stuff that fits perfect with my vintage/cottage/farm house décor. This rooster that does his job by holding the kitchen dishtowel was a mere 2.99.


He is attached to the shelf at the kitchen sink. He does his job well don't you think?




This very cute dress form is about 31/2 ft tall. That was at 4.99 but I am not sure how old it is it does look somewhat old. I may add a pretty dress or maybe a plant. It will take some time to figure this one out.


I was lucky to find this old glass milk bottle from Rodgers dairy in NY . It still has the original paper pull lid. I cant help to think about where this milk bottle first sat and who's table it was on. I can almost vision the mom dressed up with her pretty apron serving breakfast on the family table where their were piled scrambled eggs made from gathered eggs from that morning, maybe some Hoe cakes hot off the pan slathered with mounds of real butter. Hoe cakes are an old time favorite something like a pancake but made with cornmeal. The very first ones were made by the slaves on hot farm hoes, that's actually how they cooked them. Things seem so much simpler in the life that many of us bloggers mimic daily with our vintage décor etc. It makes me so happy to hap upon something like this for only 1.99. It tells me a larger story than any book could.


The fine china piece placed in the middle is my new find , @ 1$ it's wearing some pretty blue roses. Perhaps this was part of a new entire set that a bride received many decades ago. This again can tell such an amazing story, was this once part of an entire set, was it a wedding gift of a bride from long ago? If these items could only talk. Hope you enjoyed this little thrift tour, All of these items were purchased at Good-Will of South west Florida. By shopping at Good-Will it helps the community in many ways such as jobs, housing etc. We get a great deal and they get money they so desperately need. I also donate at least once a month shoes, clothes, housewares etc. any little bit helps out that great organization.


Thanks for stopping by! I enjoy the company!
