On this particular trip I was not looking for anything specific, just some good deals and more items to add to my storage unit. Below are some of the larger pieces I purchased.
Gold shelf $20
Cursive L (is about a foot tall) $5
Planning on painting it black or turquoise and hanging it somewhere??
Small coffee table $12
And the best purchase of the weekend!!!!
Italian gold leaf side tables (they are a little beat up, and are missing a few knobs but the price was too good to pass up). I was in Carmine checking out the local antique stores when I saw just one of these tables outside with this tag on it. Now to most people this would be a great price, but the piece did have some problems and I was debating whether or not I could save it. But then I saw that there was another matching table with the same tag on it. However, I was still struggling with my decision, so I went inside the antique store to ask the owner about the tables. She said that she was trying to get rid of them and would give me a deal. So I asked "what's the best price you can do" and she said "$50 bucks for both" and I said "Sold"!
With some gold leafing, two knobs and some TLC these table are going to look "AMAZING"
The next post will be of all the smalls I bought, and yes there are some milk glass pieces included.
What fabulous finds. I look forward to seeing them when you have them all redone. I love to shop flea markets and thrift shops, so I am always interested in how others reinvent and redo their wonderful finds. Thanks for sharing. Hugs, Marty
