Back about a year and a half ago, in October 2012, I wrote a post about my thrifting bucket list. This list is comprised of items that I'd like to thrift once before my thrifting days are over. This was the list back then:
"Let's see..other items on my Bucket List:
Cathrineholm - hopefully the Lotus pattern. I've found one plain piece of cathrineholm before but not the popular stuff.
Dansk flatware Fjord pattern. Okay, maybe this one doesn't count..cause I actually found some once. It was in a baggie at Goodwill in the hardware section. Hubby said he picked it up and looked at it, then put it down. I found it a few minutes later, saw the IHQ and grabbed it. It was years ago, before I knew anything about anything. Fortunately we put it on auction and did pretty well. Now that I know flatware and could do better...I want to find it again.
Pendleton Navajo jacket
Vintage Ralph Lauren sport-theme sweatshirt or jacket.
Georg Jensen sterling anything."
Of course, long time blog readers will recognize that I found at least one item on that list: The Curtis Jere wall sculpture. (see photo above)
So here is my new, revised list. Remember, I'm choosing things that are POSSIBLE to be found, not once-in-a-lifetime-there-are-only-6-in-existence-rare type things. I'm also gonna add some things that weren't on my Bucket List but should have been, but I already found them. lol.
Well, it makes sense in my own mind.
Cathrineholm - hopefully the Lotus pattern. I've found one plain piece of cathrineholm before but not the popular stuff. (Still a good one. Still haven't found any.)
Oneida flatware Paul Revere pattern (Not sure why I thought this was so special. I've found a ton and there are plenty o' patterns that sell better.)
Dansk flatware Fjord pattern. Okay, maybe this one doesn't count..cause I actually found some once. It was in a baggie at Goodwill in the hardware section. Hubby said he picked it up and looked at it, then put it down. I found it a few minutes later, saw the IHQ and grabbed it. It was years ago, before I knew anything about anything. Fortunately we put it on auction and did pretty well. Now that I know flatware and could do better...I want to find it again. (Yeah, that would still be cool)
Pendleton Navajo jacket (ditto)
Vintage Ralph Lauren sport-theme sweatshirt or jacket.
Georg Jensen sterling anything." (Well, I did find some GJ stainless flatware...but I'd still like some sterling. Jewelry would be fun)
