February thifting

Last week I stopped by one of my favorite thrift stores with nothing in particular to look for -
which always seems to work out better for me.
 I found 2 like new Eddie Bauer shirts for hubby that ended up being half price - so $6.29 for two.
 And four tops for me at around $7.50.
 And this little bit of bric-a-brac.  Some new IKEA cork coasters for $1, new food storage containers for $1, the books at about 50 cents each, and a wire "tree" for $2.50.  I was going to save the tree for Christmas decor, but it fit in nicely with the stuff up on the tops of the kitchen cabinets:
 
I re-decopaged the plate with a Pottery Barn napkin I got for $2.
Love the rich red.
So now this is what the whole thing looks like:
It's pretty hard to photograph without glare on the picture glass and those spot lights...
Simple and pretty.  Not to mention thrifty!
