Thrifted Tuesday - Best Of

It's been a wee while since I've posted a Thrifted Tuesday, not that I haven't been op shopping, I've just been a little slack on the posting front!

But I thought I might start a semi-regular post on the best thrifted items posted in our Thrifted Tuesday pool!

If you'd like to join, head on over to Flickr and sign up - all you have to do is add photos of your favourite thrifted finds - easy peasy!

So I'll try to do a bit of a Best-So-Far in this post, and then keep up with the new additions as we go along......

All the photos of course belong to the members who have uploaded them, and you can click on the images to go to the members' Flickr photostream....

Thanks is also required to Tricia from bits and bobbins, whose wardrobe_remix posts are the inspiration for this idea..... Thanks Tricia!

So, on to it:

How cute is this lamp from mrwphotography?

a really nice collection and again another reminder that there is no need to by anything new, buying old is far far better.
