I thought I would take it easy thrifting since my coffee table purchase. No need to poke the hubby tiger. Then I found myself with a break between customers, and a thrift right there!
Oh the fun of unexpected thrifting!
I found another Orrefor's discus, to match my much loved single!
And since V put the idea of WMF glass out there, and I bragged that I would keep any that I found instead of adding it to Bellin's collection, I found a piece. Couldn't believe it. Don't worry Sean, I will add it to the Ikora pile that I have for you ; ))
So the big picture is my display of my current favorite pieces. (that's your snowball Sean) I really need some help with placement as I just don't have that talent.
Oh, I got more, much more but am saving it for another post.

great finds amberrose and again a triangle Iittala Archipelago candle stick which one do you still need to complete the triangle set
Oh vlkma, thank you for the wonderful compliment. You have such a beautiful collection it is especially nice. I am in love with the Orrefors Discus. Pictures that I take do not do their icy beauty justice. They are modeled on a frozen lake. They glow. I know they are a small pretty compared to your bounty but I think you would appreciate their depth.
Unfortunately I have only the one Archipelico.
I hope you continue to share your collection. I encourage you to post your thoughts as you are obviously super cool : )) and really knowledgable.
Thanks Sean!!!
It's the "hunt", is'nt it Amber? Thats why E-Bay is so, ah, "unrewarding" (if thats the word im looking for) how about, "a lesser high".
Mikie, you are sooooo right! I couldn't believe how my day turned around when I found my discus. Happy happy joy joy.
90 % of it is the hunt for me. I guess I just have "the eye of the tiger". Miss the music quizzes
You are a magician - that has to be how you produce all these treasures time and time again. Truly wonderful!!!
miKKo, I think that I use the thrift as my stress reliever therefore I hit them all the time! You are such a sweetie!!
Thanks Scandi! Hope you are doing well!
Great collection Amber Rose, look good all together!...:-)
Thank you Phil, czech, ks, and inky!
Thanks for the sweet comment too inky!
Eye4...isn't it awesome?
Hey Scandi, much better here now that school has started ; )) Youngest really enjoying kindergarten and oldest already has three boys calling her pretty. I told her she was too young to have a boyfriend. She agrees (thank you!!). She skipped a grade in math so hopefully she will remain smart ; 000 (this is my scream in terror try)
Thanks Petey
