cheap thrills

ordinary tales of op shopping, garage sales, swap meets and trawling council verge collections, things that keep me sane, make me happy and fill the house with endless amounts of crap.

lamps


All the lamps in our house are second hand. The first three here were bought for real money at reputable op shops or garage sales and the last three were donated to us by friends who, in each case, were getting rid of stuff because they were leaving town. The last one was made by an amateur potter in their first attempt at coil pot by the looks of it.
We're pretty set for lamps actually what with the other six or seven i've got stashed away for repairs. We just need more rooms to light now.

tables



I love these tables and they only cost a combined total of $4. The two green ones were given to me by friends who found them in sheds or something so they count as free thrills which are even better.
