I found these duck measuring cups at the thrift store the other day. I think they are super cute; they reminded me of something you'd find at Anthropologie. They were marked at $1.57, though when I got up to pay, the cashier unstacked them and found that each cup was marked $1.57. Lucky for me, she thought that was ridiculous, so she gave me the set for the low, low price of one! Score! I looked up "duck measuring cup" on google and found three other sets for sale- one on
ebay for $17.19 after tax and shipping, one at
Bonanza for $25
before tax and shipping, and one at Ecrater that was $38 (around $50 after tax and shipping)! So I am pretty happy with my find.
And, most important, I got these lamps for my bedroom. They are big, clunky, and
very dated, but I thought they'd be great painted and with better shades. I sent a picture to Rebecca to make sure (she is my designer, after all!), and then snatched them both up for $25. Technically, one of them
may be a
little broken, as in, it doesn't actually work, but it is going to serve its purpose on one of my nightstands. I may try to fix it- I know they have diy lamp kits.
