Today I am NOT sharing holiday stuff, but rather some new to me, funky and eclectic thrift store decor that I recently found while thrifting for Christmas things. I must admit that I am a little scared to share because I am went a little more vintage and out there than what I might typically use in my home, but I do love this. So...pretty much everything in this photo is from a thrift store, including the very late 70's early 80's ottoman I just added.
I sort of instantly loved it and maybe threw up in my mouth a little bit at the same time. 😁 First I sat on it. Next, I put my nose up to it and gave it a big sniff--no smoke or pet odors. I then turned it over, checked it out thoroughly, and then threw it in my cart to think about it. Before I knew it, I was loading it into my car. I can be a bit of a germ-a-phobe so I did thoroughly Lysol the ottoman when it came home.

I bought this chair at a thrift store a year or so ago. I wasn't sure if I was going to keep it or resell it. It quickly became the comfiest spot to sit and while it was clean, I decided to buy THIS SLIPCOVER for it to better fit with my colors. I am super impressed with the slipcover, it never needs adjusting or re-tucking. And other than the little bit of wrinkling you can see on the bottom, it fits snuggly and does not look like a slipcover. I plan on buying a new sofa or sectional within the next six months so this is all temporary for now.
I wasn't exactly sure where I would want to use the ottoman, I knew the pattern on it with the pattern in my rug would be a little wild, but I am so okay with it. It is funky, fun, and certainly not boring. The oranges and yellows and browns in it match well with the colors in the rug.
The throw blanket I bought at the thrift store to cut up and use for new stocking cuffs. But, after washing it and feeling how lovely and warm it is and seeing that it is a Pottery Barn blanket that retails for $179 (I paid $9), I decided to NOT cut it up and use it for cuddling instead. I also a got a Pottery Barn knit and sherpa tan blanket for $5.50.
More thrift store finds sit on the table, an eclectic incense or candleholder that looks Christmassy to me, a twisted wood candlestick, a wood bowl with a candle, and an old book.
Here is a peek inside the book:
So funky, unique, vintage it is.
