Tips and Trends Tuesday: AC thrift store finds

A few weeks ago..I posted my fav party decor tip..thirft store shopping.  Here is the post. As promised, I wanted to post some of my thrift store finds and how I used them in my parties!


Country salt and pepper shakers for a farm party!


Found these shell vases that I used for an "under the sea" party.  They were a silver, but I spray painted them white!


These are actually Martha Stewart drink stirs.  But they count since I found them at a Goodwill!!

The skeleton fits nicely..don't ya think!


Found this little deer figurine that added an adorable accent to a "woodland" baby shower!


Look closely and the small lego table that I used for a stand I got at a garage sale!


I found this candlestick holder at a Goodwill.  It was black, but I spray painted it white and added white round discs to the top and it maked the perfect cupcake stand!  Looks like the cupcakes are dancing..don't ya think!


This is a combo of a cheap candlestick with an old plate.  Super glue and spray paint..wallaha!


These drink labels are from a vintage "Madeline" book I found at a Goodwill for.69!


Candlesticks again with pickle jars..I got this idea from pinterest, but it was not hard to find these pieces at a thrift store.

Candlestick again!


This pig planter made the perfect utencil holder at a farm party!


Celebrate Perfectly!

  1. The candlestick holder is exactly what I have been looking for, and for the same use.
