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.
Lol! Very cool, Kelly — hope you have a great weekend!

WOW. i don’t usually get jealous of your finds… i mean i love them, but they don’t evoke the green eyed monster. right now i am beating the green eyed monster and telling him to get away.
Those are really neat Kelly, I where they were used?
What an incredible find Kelly! I love the colors too.
I love a great rummage sale! We have one we wait for every year….not the for the faint of heart either!
I can’t wait to see what you do with the lightbulbs!

Kelly – Enjoyed your kitchen tour over at Kim’s. You did a wonderful job on your kitchen. Those light bulbs are gigantic! Can’t wait to see what you do with them.

OK, Kelly… You Light Up My Life? Seriously??? I liked that song back in the day, but was it really, always ‘that’ sloooow? I’m all over the light up you scored instead! 😉 I’m also all over your new banner – it looks awesome! Thanks for the Twitter msg today 🙂
They remind me of chippy ornaments. I like the amber crackled ones 🙂
You find the BEST stuff! Can’t wait to see what else you snagged! Love the new header!
Great score…and I have to admit…I love that song…but now whenever I hear that song of Debbie Boone’s, I think of her Lifestyle Lift commercial…!
Loved your room over at Kim’s … and now I’m wondering if those old light bulbs might just turn up on your ladder xmas tree this year …
🙂

I am also drawn to bulbs. The color on these is fabulous. They are sweet just congregating in a basket!

Wow! You can do all sorts of decorative things with those.
Those are so cool!
