Thrift Store Finds - Blog Posts
Brought this beautiful kitty home from the thrift store. It looks like an employee found her endearing, too.
(Image ID: A ceramic cat statue about 12 inches/30 centimeters tall, photographed from several angles. The cat is slender and off-white, sitting with her black-tipped paws tucked tightly together and her black tail wrapped around her body. She’s stretching upward as though trying to charm a person into petting her. She has artistic flourishes drawn all over her in a sketchy, ink-brush-like style — including a pink flower blossom on top of her head, a red heart on her chest, leaves down the back of her neck, and multi-coloured fish spilling plentifully up her lower back. Her eyelashes and whiskers are thickly lined in a way resembling mascara, and her human-like lips are red. A handwritten price sticker on the cat’s chest says, “She has a sore [left] ear :( $22″ She does indeed have a small chip missing from the tip of her left ear.)
went to a thrift store earlier today and got this super cute collar + vintage rabies vaccination tag
im not super big on wearing collars (hate the feeling of pressure against my neck, also im not domestic lol) so i'll probably use the collar as an accessory for my pants or something, and I think i'll turn the rabies tag into an earring !! 𐂯 ‧₊˚ ⏾
This is a doll I bought at a thrift store. I refurbished her. When I bought her, she had no clothes and her face had been painted with glitter paint. I cleaned her up, washed her hair and made some clothes for her.
LOOK WHAT I FOUND
For my birthday today I went on a shopping spree (idk if buying 7 clothing items at a thrift store counts as a "spree" but oh well lol) and I decided to quickly peruse the movie section. I restricted myself to only buying a movie if it was a Ewan one so that I didn't go over budget. I wasn't expecting to find anything cuz I was already at the bottom shelf and BOOM! I COULDN'T BELIEVE MY EYES!!!!!
I screamed! I couldn't help it! I was so surprised and excited that one of my FAVORITE Ewan movies was for sale!!!! Plus, this was one movie that I figured I'd NEVER find in store especially not on DVD. Hands down this single handedly made my birthday PERFECT! 🤗
I GOT THE MOVIE AND SHIRT TODAY
Bonus shirt I bought. It's from Stranger Things and I thought it was cool. There was a Hellfire shirt too but I couldn't find it so it was probably bought already.
We got an Obi-Wan Kenobi t-shirt at work today! It was him in The Clone Wars and I got so excited! It was priced super cheap too so it will probably be gone tomorrow but still. I also Ewan's movie The Ghostwriter for sale and it was still in the wrap! Cool stuff
BEHOLD my Jedi costume!
At my job, we're allowed to wear Halloween costumes throughout the month of October!
It'd be a shame if I didn't dress up as at least ONE Ewan McGregor character.
Obi-Wan is probably the only genuine costumey character, but in the very likely event that I can't find the materials to do his outfit, I need a backup.
Can you guys help me brainstorm costumes to put together?
Another Thrift Score!
Y'all! So there were a bajillion DVDs at the thrift store all week. I'm not kidding. They had so much that they had to start bringing the movies out in buckets because there wasn't any shelf space. I haven't had a chance to go through them all until today. I just kept telling myself "there's way too many movies for there to not be a Ewan one." I felt it in my bones. If he was in one of these buckets, I was gonna sniff him out. Finally, after a long and tedious search of scanning movie titles, guess what was at the very end?
BAM!! I could hardly contain my joy! I knew he had to be there and I knew I would find him! Yayyyy, I'm so happy! 😁 I picked up Chicago too because of my darling Renée Zellweger 🥰. There was a movie called Twisted that I considered getting for Ashley Judd too (she was in Eye of the Beholder with Ewan) but I only had so much pocket money to spend. What a great score!
I GOT THEM!!!! And y'all, by the time I got off work there was not just one, not two, but THREE Ewan movies available and I got them all! You know what's crazy? The movies for sale were the next three movies in line for review in order! Moulin Rouge, Black Hawk Down, and Attack of the Clones! Isn't that cool? That brings my Ewan movie collection to five! I also got the movies Red and Red 2. Red 2 was available this morning and I considered getting it but I like the first one better so I didn't want to only buy the sequel. When I got off work, the first movie was available for sale so I went ahead and got them both! I don't think anything can dull my shine today! I shouldn't have bought so much. I'm sure I'll regret it later. Right now, I'm on cloud nine 😁🥰🥳
ALERT! ALERT!
Try to stay calm but THE "MOULIN ROUGE" DVD IS FOR SALE AT MY JOB!!!! I literally said "oh my fucking god" when I saw it. But I can't buy it because I'm on the clock and I still have 4 hours until I clock out 😫😫 I'm so scared that it's going to get bought in that time! It's brand new, still in the plastic, and only 2 DOLLARS! Oh my god, I want it sooooo bad!
Edit: I just got a chance to actually pick it up and take a look and it's not new in the plastic. Doesn't change anything for me of course. Also, another Ewan movie "Black Hawk Down" is available too! There's a good selection of general movies we have today and I'm tempted to buy an armful lol
GUYS! GUYS! GUYS! Look at what I bought at the Thrift Store today!!!
I went to the thrift store to buy clothes and didn't find anything I wanted so I decided to peruse the movie section and I saw this gem! I almost screamed! I LOVE this movie so much; I can't believe I'm so lucky to have found it! I now have two Ewan McGregor movies, yay!
I’ve been (not too actively - not like i’m obsessed) hoping to find one of these since i found a nose part by itself and i just knew the rest had to be good. But it was even better than i thought it would be.
enjoy this deck chair jushion
(incidentally this is at the same thrift store as the one where the jube was found)
well, um, actually
it had the name of a beach on the back, but that really doesn’t make it much better.
