"Thrift"-y Decorating

I wanted to share a recent find at the local Goodwill store. I don't stop in there often, but I do like to stop from time to time and see what is new. I bought this oil painting for $39.99. It measures 45" x 33". I hung it above my bed to tie in with all the ship pictures I have in my bathroom. I just love this painting. It is so peaceful and relaxing. And what a deal! The frame is so nice.


I have donated so many nice things to Goodwill through the years. I truly hope someone found a treasure when they found my donation. I realize that others do the same. You never know what you will find at a thrift store. I have read so many blogs where others have found some awesome furniture pieces or art.

I was just admiring my mom and dad's collection of sailing items...paintings, etc., and I just love that look- what a great buy that was that you got!

Isn't it wonderful to find a treasure! I also like knowing I am continuing the recycle/reuse motion. I give to thrift shops hoping more love is down the road for my outgrown treasures!

That...is a lovely, calming piece of art!
Do you think that you'll have some sales again of things you don't want, on your blog?
