Dirt Road Adventures & Some Thrift Store Finds

Hey friends, I feel like I’m finally getting back to normal. Between the holidays and being sick, it’s taken me all month to start feeling creative again.

I finally went thrifting last week and found some great deals.

It started last Saturday when Brad and I went on a little adventure and continued throughout the week.

I began to pick up things I have on my thrifting list to use for Spring decorating.

No, I didn’t find everything on my list, but during the hunt, I found some things that were not on my list. LOL

So I’m going to share a few of my finds today, plus…. lots of brunch ideas.

Wow, I didn’t realize as I was planning this past week’s schedule, but it was full of brunch ideas.

I wanted to share my Galentine’s Brunch ideas since Valentine’s is right around the corner. Then it’s the third week which means it’s all about Supper Club.

I apologize if you aren’t interested in brunch ideas, but don’t worry because you’ll find lots of inspiration from around the web, plus my thrifted finds.

This is a look back at all my adventures this past week.

Thrift Store Finds

Remember last week when I shared about going on an adventure to find a unique restaurant? Well, we also did a little thrift store shopping.

In addition, I continued to stop in at some of my favorite shops during the week. So I wanted to share some of my finds.

First, I found a few ceramic pieces that I couldn’t resist.

All of these pieces feel like spring to me.

I have plans for the bunny tureen and swan planter, and I can’t wait to share them with you.

The cute beach cow salt and pepper shakers were only $2.00 and will make a great conversation piece at the beach cottage.

In addition, the vintage set of Spice bottles may be my favorite find. I immediately washed them and filled the bottles with spices. For now, they are in my pantry, but I would like to display them in the kitchen. Just have to decide where.

Lastly, another swan, but this time in concrete, was a must-have and was actually on my list.

In addition, a trio of old copper pans and two vintage cookie cutters completed my week.

I look forward to sharing what I plan for each of these treasures in the next few weeks.
