Thrift Stores

Wanted to share this today from my other blog. As you all know I love Primitive Decor.

Thrift Shops & Thrifty Trendz Thrift Shop in Perrysburg

 

I have always loved shopping at Thrift Stores. Part of the excitement is that you never know what you are going to find. A few years ago I found a leather coat from JC Penny brand new with tags for $7.00 and it was marked $179.99. I have even found coach purses (used) for about $7.00. I have had days that I can't find a thing and then other days that I cannot believe what I have found. Goodwill is one of my favorite places and now they even have a place online that you can bid on products.

Today when I was out with my son and a friend of my daughters we found a new thrift store that has opened in Perrysburg. We had to go in to check them out. I found a set of 3 tables that I really want for my living room.For the set of 3 it is just $60! I am taking my husband to look at them tonight. I have taken a photo below. I will keep you posted if he let's me get them or not.

Photo: Set of shabby chic tables. Could be used indoors or great for the outdoors as well - 75.00 for the set. Large table - 40"w x 21" t x 23" d Small tables - 22"w x 20" t x 23 1/4" d @thriftytrendz

A bit about the company-

Olivia's Heartland features stunning home decor ideas and items! Perhaps you'll find the perfect idea to add some rustic sophistication and primitive charm to your home!!

Find the website here -OliviasHeartland.com

You can find them on Facebook here

They even have a email newsletter that features specials and more. You can sign up for that here and even order a free catalog. I have so many things marked in mine that I plan on purchasing in the future.

Let me just say my new home is very primitive the walls are a light brown. We have wood floors in both baths, front entry way and our kitchen. The cabinets are a shaker style, a medium oak with all black hardware in the home. We went with black counter tops for the kitchen and baths.

Both the builder and my husband were a bit nervous when I choose black. But now that the home is done they love it!

Here are some pictures below.

We just closed on our new home today. Over the last few months I was trying to find perfect primitive décor for our new home. I ordered so many items from Olivia’s Heartland. Let me just say I LOVE so many of the items. Everything was packaged well and the products were shipped in a timely manner. When I placed my order I was sent a large catalog. I spent hours looking at it. My favorite pattern for our home is Kettle Grove. Once we are settled and I get everything in place I will add more photos to share. My mother is currently looking at the catalog and I plan to share it with friends.

I was able to buy the quilt, 2 pillow shams, bed skirt and the cute crow pillow.This is our bedding that I ordered below-

I also purchased 6 of the valances to match for various places in our home-

For our bathroom these adorable shower curtains-

I also added the neat star shower curtain hangers

For the kitchen I purchased oven mitts, potholders, and napkins.

For our new table set I purchased the matching chair pads.

Over time I am sure I will order the items I have marked. Next in line for me would be the Kettle Grove Crow and Star Quilted Throw

My daughter loves Americana so I am super excited to get her one of the pillows below-
