Finds of the Week #23


I love to go find treasures and go junkin!  I go to the Flea Market, Thrift Stores and CL mostly.  Here are some of my finds for the past week.


My Daughter's name is Brayden and this large letter is perfect for her room-I will be painting it of course! 

Silver dish

Lovely old mirror 

Pair of Wooden Shoe Forms


Love the details on this mirror

Buffet

I love this painting and it is now up in my dinning room

Great leather bag-I restored it with hemp oil 

Long bench-should I upholster it in a bold fabric or go neutral?

I love the legs

Pair of Berger style chairs 


Bench 

Cute mirror
