I Scored at the Thrift Store – My Lightbulb Moment

I battled the VNA rummage sale again.

Remember what I scored at the last fall VNA sale and the spring VNA sale.

Held twice a year, with about 40 tents with everything from furniture to vintage, boutique clothes to costumes, books to office supplies.

This is not a rummage sale for the faint of heart.

These huge old bulbs really light up my life.

I did score one more find that I’ll share next week (hint:  it was once part of a living, breathing animal)!

Check out all of my I Scored at the Thrift Store finds!

P.S. I was going to share the lyrics of that oldie but goodie You Light Up My Life but I thought I’d spare you this one time from my love of cheesy songs.

I’m over at Kim’s today sharing My Favorite Room if you’d like to stop by.
