A New Thrift Store

I noticed a new thrift store on the way home from work. I have not had a chance to stop in so when Buster wanted to look for a bundt pan for a project, I suggested the Methodist thrift store that was new to me.

Oddly enough, I don't think that I have ever been in a thrift store that is run by the Methodist church. These folks do a really nice job of running the store. The prices are reasonable and they have a good selection of clothing furniture and housewares.

Well, Buster didn't find his bundt pan but I fell in love with a low coffee table. I couldn't talk Buster into buying the table (where are you going to put it) but it is still on my mind. Twenty-five dollars for an antique is always worth the price!

Afterward, we stopped by Goodwill, again looking for the bundt pan. I came across some aluminum trays that I especially liked, and I do have a place for them!


I love hammered aluminum and this is a really nice example.


This one is a bit smaller and pressed, not hammered, but the flower motif is nice.


 Here is a size comparison.

If you can't go on a road trip, you might as well hit some thrift stores! On the Backroads With Buster...
