THRIFTIN FINDS

Saturday was my daughter's birthday and we had a wonderful brunch!   I also had to make a Thrift Store visit to the Salvation Army store near where she lives.  I found these great items!!

I see lots of pink!

These 4 glasses were awesome at 49 cents each

The white silverware holder will help me organize

Close up of the pattern 

I got three pink plates which I love!

Also an addition for my Flamingo collection

 This really cute mug, love the handle!

I also found these two teacups

Love the pattern inside

 And out (I should have removed the price tag)

My last find

This unopened package of Discover Georgia's Songbirds cards

These were from the AJC (Atlanta Journal Constitution) store

This Atlanta newspaper has an online store where they sell reprints of historic front pages, photos and artwork seen in the newspaper.

These cards are from 2003 and the artist is Elizabeth Landt.

Right now they are offering some beautiful art prints

One of my favorites is a series of watercolors of the Lighthouses of Georgia
