As I mentioned last week, Peddler’s Mall is closing. You know that it is my favorite place to “thrift”. Particularly Joey’s booth. You can always tell when I buy something from Joey by his trademark orange stickers ending in .96. Joey was filly his booth as other people were in a rush to get their booth empty. Check out what I scored for $5.00.
The $5.00 score does not include that little wooden “nubs”. That was a curb find that Cathy and I picked up together. It’s been at her house, but she has given me custody of it.
So, on to what I got from Joey. Fan blade arms were marked .96.
Small plastic picture frames were marked .46.
Gynormous lamp base.
Enamel lids .96 each.
ummmm candlesticks? They have lids that lift off.
.96 each
An owl family! .96 and two small ones .46 each
Round frames, .96 each.
One is slightly smaller than the other. They sort of make a base, or a double frame when stacked.
A light fixture globe .46
A cute little blue lamp. I dunno… Cathy talked me into it. 😉
Here’s nubs! Isn’t he cute?
Free!
I went back to Joey’s booth the middle of last week, but didn’t buy anything. I decided to wait till he marked his stuff down to half price, which he did this past weekend.
I stopped by on Sunday and went way over my usual budget. The most I paid from Joey’s booth was .48. I’ll show you that haul next week.
I’ve already repurposed something from this batch. Check back tomorrow for pics and how tos of something you have probably never seen before. At least MY take on it.

August 11, 2010 at 12:15 amI think the candlesticks came with lids because they once had glass hurricanes on the pillar holders, and then you put the lids on them- sort of like apothecary jars~

August 9, 2010 at 4:45 pmI’m so jealous of all your finds! I wish I could find such awesomeness for cheap! I love the round frames. They might make cool moulding around a light fixture?

August 9, 2010 at 10:22 amYou made quite the haul for $5. Like Deb, I see a dog bed from the nubs. Can’t wait to see how you use the enamel lids. I’d have grabbed those for sure.
Proper Prim says

Have a great day… can’t wait to see what you are up to.
