Thrifty Treasures is back!
Can I get a big YIPPEE! I can’t wait to see all the finds out there and I’m glad y’all are excited about starting this party back again.
I got a couple of things on Saturday, but I’m going to showcase my friend, Debbie’s recent find first. She and her hubby have a new cute little condo in Gulf Shores and Debbie’s been working hard to get it spruced up. So, she picked up 3 ladderback chairs at a flea market out near her in Wilsonville for $35 for the trio. The above pic is not hers, but this is similar to what they looked like in their BEFORE state.
Debbie (on the left) and her daughter, Tiffany, have been really busy with projects lately, so they got busy with a pretty shade of aqua on these chairs and now they are beach-worthy for sure.
Debbie said they look perfect at the beachhouse and hopefully, I’ll be seeing them in person really soon. A yummy shade of blue-green is perfect for sprucing up some vintage ladderback chairs, don’t you think?
I got Debbie and Tiffany up early on Saturday and we hit a few sales in our area. Here are the 3 things I found:
A cute little old bird to add to my white dish collection in the dining room. He was only 25 cents, so that was a no-brainer.
$1 for this nice old hammer, I can always use an extra of these.
I spotted this for $2 and wasn’t sure what it was, but I knew what I could do with it. I’ve had problems with moisture getting underneath my clay planter in the foyer that holds my corn plant.
Now, it’s up off the floor and moisture shouldn’t be a problem anymore. That might be what it was intended for, not sure but it was the perfect solution.
So, now it’s YOUR turn! What have YOU found lately. Add your link to the Linky list and remember our guidelines for the party:
- Add your permalink to the link list, which is the actual post that you did for this party, NOT your general blog url. To get the actual post, after you publish the post, just click on the title and THAT will be your party post url. Last year, I can’t tell you how many links I had to fix. This year I might get mean & delete them, so PLEASE try to get the correct url in the first time! 🙂
- Please add my button to your post or blog OR at least link back to this post in your post. That’s all I ask. It’s common courtesy to link back to the person having the party, so that all of your readers can find it too.
Thanks and let’s have some fun this year with Monday’s Thrifty Treasures party!

Rhoda, I am so excited for this party to start again! 🙂 I don’t have much this week (still cold in VA for yard sales), but I have some treasures from the past few weeks saved up to share. Thanks for hosting!!
Hi Rhoda. It’s good to be back and to have your fun blog parties back. I love the color of the chairs. I’ve noticed a lot of those chairs lately. I think they’re making a strong come back. Have a great evening!!!! Cheers!!!
Yippee! I’ve been waiting for this party to come back all winter long. Bring on the deals!
I love that little bird!
I’m happy this party is back…and on my birthday week. I don’t have any thing to share because I have the flu, and I’m just starting to feel better.
I am doing the happy dance in my office chair. Your party has been missed by all! Thank you , thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart, I am beyond thrilled.
Those chairs are To…Die…For… Just so you know.
Thanks for bringing the party back! I love it! Great buys by the way!
Rhoda, thanks for hosting this party again. I really enjoyed it last fall. Love the items you got for almost pennies. What fun finds! Linda
Hi there! I’m new to Thrifty Treasures! Can’t wait to see all the good deals out there!
Oh well, my plans for thrifting were a wash out ~ literally with the rain we’ve been getting for three days straight! Hopefully, I’ll have something to link up next time, but I will enjoy seeing everyone else’s thrifty finds!
Posts like this make me so unhappy that I’ve yet to find a good thrift store near me! Our local Goodwill is, well, not very good.
I love the bird you found! It’s gorgeous.
Rhoda, I am so glad to have this meme back, once again! I finally got out to do some thrifting after not being able to do much for the past few months. But Mr. Sullivan is doing much better and I didn’t feel guilty getting out last week. Love how you re-purposed your “plant-stand.” And that little white bird… wowie, excellent price! Happy St. Paddy’s Day Wishes to ya from this Irish lass!
Hey, Rhoda!
25 cents for that precious birdie–seriously? Perfect!
hi, rhoda – what a long, cold winter! so glad spring is in the air & that you’ve resumed your weekly thrifty treasures party.
i love that little birdie. so sweet (or would that be so tweet?)
thanks for hosting!
Rhoda, so glad you have this back, I have to say I’ve wasted lots of time on this in the past…nothing better than looking at treasure, right?
I’m in twice (of course I have a loot most weeks in this old beach cottage!) hope that is ok…
oh and lovin those ladder back chairs for a beach house
xx
Yay, the party’s back! Thanks for hosting again. I love seeing everyone’s awesome bargins. It’s only going to get better as it gets warmer. Have a great day.
Your blog is a blast…I love looking at the treasures others find
Hi Rhoda! Thanks for starting the party again! I’ve missed it! I love those very beachy chairs…such a pretty color! Your little bird is precious…and what a great find in that plant stand thingy! lol Happy week!…hugs…Debbie
Howdy Dear Rhoda!!! Yes, I’ll give you a YIPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! (Done in my best Minnie Pearl voice–do you remember when she used to do that high pitched “Howdy?” 🙂
I suppose I’m exposing my age with that little golden nugget of history! 😉
I have missed being able to stop by to see you & haven’t updated my own blog in over 4 weeks…but I jumped back in there tonight! I’m going to my church’s thrift store tomorrow and will report back in soon as I ALWAYS find something amazing there! I’m also planning an entire little road trip around thrifting soon because I head that Franklin, TN (less than 2 hours from Huntsville) is full of fab finds and I have friends up there close by so I’m going to try to hit up several thrift stores AND have a good ol’ visit. I’ll let you know what I find! Also, recently you highlighted one of my favorite newer blogs, Playing Sublimely! She just seems so sweet and that house reno was fantastic! I’m so glad you brought more folks to her as I think she is kind AND talented, just like you!
Love, hugs and turquoise joy, Lana
Thank you for letting us share!!!
That’s the spirit of true Southern Hospitality:):)
Fun party and my first!
