I can never pass up handcrafted wooden decorations at the thrift store…the older the better!
Take a closer peek at some of the faves I’ve collected over the years…
These 3 gorgeous Russian cutting boards now proudly adorn my kitchen wall (thrifted for €2.25 for the complete set!)
a hand carved Ukrainian covered bowl & plate set inherited from my late grandmother-in-law (purchased in Kiev in the 1960’s)
the details are amazing & the tiny carving imperfections make it wonderfully unique
simply stunning!
Can you believe I discovered this treasure in the trash? The much-faded label on the bottom declares it to be hand carved & painted in Russia in 1962 – dumpster diving at its finest!
another superb thrift score, this handmade Ukrainian plate (with metal inlays) cost only €0.50!
and my ever-growing collection of wooden storage jars…these beauties have been inherited, thrifted & found at the flea market and are definitely a few of my favourite things!
Check out how I upcycled a few more of my thrifty wooden finds into Bijou Bauble Stands & a Tremendous Treasure Tower!
Hey Sheri, these wooden decoration thrifts are beautiful! I own some cute Matrjoschka-dolls (half inherited, half thrifted) and love them. The last time at the fleamarket I found a folklore bowl & can ensemble. I have the feeling we can find a lot cheap folklore things here in Germany… NICE!!! Lucky us 😛
Ja, wir haben sehr viel Glück hier in Deutschland – alle von der schönen handgefertigten Dekor aus der Vergangenheit wurde in der Regel in Europa kreiert 😀
