I was looking for a basket or something for Jack the Cat's toys and found this lovely toy chest for him.
I was also looking for something to store my weights and various workout paraphernalia. A few things don't fit, but this will do for now.
I almost didn't get this luminary, but I thought it was pretty and might be able to use it in listings for my shop. In hindsight, I probably shouldn't of gotten it: when I got home & inspected it, there were various chips and cracks that I didn't see at the store.
I saw this and it reminded me of a similar carving and design on an incense holder that I have and love. I'm not sure if this is supposed to be a hot plate or what exactly I'm going to use it for yet. It might also be a prop for listings.
I was looking for a lazy susan or some kind of tray for keeping my herbal concoctions together, out of the way, and easily movable. This should work.
And last, I found a few various bottles, jars, and spoons. I don't have a plan for the jars yet, they're just good to have around. I'm thinking that the bottle will be for storing herbal vinegar. Those spoons? I'm going to play with making garden markers out of them.
All in all, some decent booty for $20!

Wow! $20?!!! You do have a knack for finding incredible bargains!!
The luminary will be a great photo prop--you can hide the flaws (or let them show to give it "character").
Very decent booty for $20 bucks! Those would make great props, too, and the wooden piece would be a great trivet. Awesome thrifting!
Leann- Sometimes you just get lucky, ya know? We really don't have many great thrift stores around here, but they usually do fine for the things I'm looking for.
Della- Trivet! Yes! Thank you. That was driving me crazy. I kept wanting to call it a hot plate, but trivet is the word I was looking for. Yes, I could use it for that, but it just seems too pretty.
