A Thrift Store Find!

Today I was shopping at one of my favorite thrift stores, Precious Life, and I found the cutest little key rack! It inspired me to post a blog about all the fun little things that I have in my room that I've collected through the years.

Here it is! My wonderful little key rack/shelf. It is right next to my door and so handy to hang my keys so now I hopefully do not lose them so much!


This is just a close up of some of my favorite things that now have a home. I love reed diffusers because they smell sooo good, I want to travel to Paris someday (my sister got the eifel tower for me), and old fashion alarm clocks are so cute (from target).


I once complained to my boyfriend that he had never gotten me flowers, so low and behold on my birthday he shows up with this huge bouquet of flowers that matched what I was wearing!


I don't remember where I found this. But I remember it was WAY too much and I bought it anyways. I think it is just the cutest little hook ever! I hang my long necklaces and headbands on it.


I know it's not that exciting, but I love this picture corner.


And in my pictuer corner I have a barameter! It is one of my favorite thirft store finds of all time! I got if for like $5.00 or something!


Over in another corner I have 3 of the silliest/ugliest pictures that me and Jane found in a Goodwill in San Diego. We decided we wanted something ridiculous to remind us of the trip. I think we succedded. In the foreground is a lampshad that I've been working on for forever!!


Here is a better picture of the lamp shade. It has taken me over 8 months to finish this lamp shade! I am so slow and I tend to get distracted. I found the base of the lamp at a garage sale and just love the shape of it!


I know it's silly, but I love my rock collection.


I found this gold picture frame at a thrift store and I love it. It's gawdy,but I think it's fun.


I also love my painting stuff. The paint pallet is broken down the middle and I keep my brushes in a recycled candle jar. Also, the picture in the background is a picture of a heart that I found spray-painted on the road in Prague.


This is another one of my favorite places in my room. First of all my "Love is the Movement" Picture, a painting I made, Ibriks from Lebanon, and dried roses from my friend Tammy's wedding.

Last but not least, I love these little glass coasters.They are colorful and fun!
