Wow! This thing went faster than a fat kid eating a cupcake! I bought this Loevsky & Loevsky floor lamp really cheap about a year ago with the intention of refurbishing it. In her day, I know she was an incredible piece but she needed a BUNCH of work! New wiring and some welding for starters. I finally accepted the fact I was never going to get around to it so I put it on Marketplace today for free. My messages immediately started blowing up and within 30 minutes she was on her way to a new home where she’s going to be beautiful again. Bittersweet but happy it’s out of my patio! 😂❤️

Today’s Goodwill find! Let’s have a lamp lesson:

This is a vintage Paul Hanson Baccarat-style crystal and ormolu table lamp.
The lamp features a crystal urn-shaped body with lobed detailing.
It is raised on a square, gilded ormolu (brass) base.
Lamps of this style were likely manufactured in the mid-20th century, often attributed to Paul Hanson Lighting Co.
They are typically inspired by 19th-century French design

I paid $9.97 each! They are absolutely gorgeous and super heavy. You can’t buy plastic Walmart lamps for that! This is a perfect example of how you can have really nice pieces without spending a fortune.

My babies are buckled in safely for the ride home. 🥰

Happy Junking! ❤️

I may have done this a few times. 😉

When my kids walk into a thrift store, I don’t want them to think,
“this is what you do if you can’t afford better.”

I want them to think,
this is where good things live.

Where things still have life left in them.
Where stories don’t end just because someone else was finished.
Where value isn’t measured by price tags or how new something looks.

Thrifting isn’t a last resort in our home.
It’s not embarrassing.
It’s not gross.
And it’s definitely not something to be looked down on.

It’s our first choice.

Because we already have more than enough in this world.
Because caring for what exists matters.
Because choosing intentionally teaches patience, gratitude, and creativity.
Because “new” doesn’t automatically mean better, and “used” doesn’t mean worn out.

So when we thrift, we’re not settling.
We’re choosing thoughtfully.
We’re choosing stories over trends, character over perfection, and values over impulse.

And that lesson?
That one lasts far longer than anything brand new ever could 🤍

Y’all! I’m here outside of Atlanta, Georgia (Chamblee area) and shocked at the great items on their local MarketPlace and the number of the thrift stores in the area.
I’ll be planning a return trip soon ! ❤️❤️
