I love the Treasure Hunt at thrift stores. I google thrift,charity and consignment stores whenever I travel. Here in Raleigh I sell real estate so I'm all over town. I know where all the stores are located. I run through on a regular basis and just wanted to share. Somethings I re-sell,many I use to stage homes or give them to clients. In this economy it's even more special. I've given speeches on thrifting and coached friends and family on a successful "HUNT".

Antique plates and GW curtains!
This lovely shot is the corner of Ali's sweet town home. She's got an eye for shabby chic. She found her corner cupboard at "beggars thieves" near 64. I found the antique wedgewood plates marked "As Is" (small chips) for $1.99 a piece. The curtains, 4 floor length panels, for $3.49 a piece. We have had such fun fixing up her place. It's truely amazing and each addition a new story and memory. Last year she photographed them all and framed them in a shadow box. She gave it to me for Christmas! That was a touching gift from the heart!
