2nd Time Around: Pumpkin decor

 

Welcome to  2nd Time Around. Please join us by linking a post that features something that is a 2nd Time Around to you…something from a garage sale, flea market, thrift store, estate sale,  etc. Please link your post rather than your blog, and link back to this blog.

This week I stopped in the Salvation Army Thrift store just to take a look. This store has not been my favorite because I always found it to be a little on the junky side. I was very surprised at how neat and organized everything was.

I bought a couple of items, but wanted to share this one since everyone is getting their homes ready for fall. All my decorations are still packed up-maybe one day this week I’ll get in gear.

This pumpkin has a home now on our dining room table. I placed it on my Southern Living at home barley pedestal (not from the thrift store!) Don’t you love getting decorations at bargain prices? I know I do!

2nd Time Around: Estate sale scales

This balance scale is one that came from an estate sale a few years back. Last year, I used it in the fall to display the ceramic pumpkins everyone was buying from the Dollar Tree. I’ve also used it to display small potted plants. It’s one of my favorite estate sale pieces.

2nd Time Around: Garden Finial

This is a finial that I bought recently at an Estate Sale. It had a piece that broke off as I was getting into the car, but was easily glued back together. It is actually pretty light weight, but looks heavy.
