My brother has come to the dark side, he's now a thrifter. He was that guy who couldn't buy anything used. It had to be all new video games, movies, clothes, and electronics. He'd rely on credit if necessary. Slowly but surely, he's realized the virtues of second hand shopping.
This ceramic lamp from Disney's Aladdin was a random thrifted gift from my brother. It brings back memories of our living room in Italy. My (twin) older brothers and I had just finished watching Aladdin. We all looked at each other, then promptly hit rewind on the VHS so we could watch it again. I'll think of that moment every time I admire this lamp at home.
I found a really cute sewing kit for $2.50...
ReplyDeleteNow I just need to learn how to sew!!!! I love that lamp!
aladdin <3 That sure brings childhood memories! This weekend I went to a swapping event, you'll love the details, I will post them later today :p How big is that lamp? (being curious)
ReplyDeleteJessica: You'll get the hang of it now that you have a cute little kit to use.
ReplyDeleteMiss Lou: The lamp is about 4.5 - 5 inches long, it looks like an accurate translation of the movie scale.
no thrifting for me this last weekend.
ReplyDeleteDont you wish a geenie really lived in there and you could talk to her/him even if they didnt give you a wish, it would be fun
CRY: Hell yes, I did rub the lamp and wish and Genie would come out. Maybe not Disney's Genie, though.
ReplyDeleteKeeping up with him would be exhausting.
I love converting anti-thrifters! Welcome your bother to the club! :)
