Thrift Finds: Unicorns!
Jan. 21st, 2010 09:59 amThrift Find: Giant Blue Unicorn Head Cookie Jar
Found At: Goodwill in Jupiter, Florida
Price Paid: $5.35
Why I'm So Excited: It is absurd and fabulous at the same time. I can honestly say I've never seen a unicorn head cookie jar, let alone one in such a vibrant shade of eyeshadow blue. There are even gold stars tangled in its hair. It pushes the envelope of good taste and the cashier boy made terrible fun of me, yes, but it is so freaking adorable. Just look at those crazy eyes and that little baby horn!
Thrift Find: Small White Unicorn Porcelain Jewelry Box
Found At: Goodwill in Jupiter, Florida
Price Paid: $2.28
Why I'm So Excited: It is beautiful! So gracefully carved and not that chalky texture that so many unicorn figurines have. Stamped on the bottom, made in Japan in 1982. The horn was, at some point, broken and reglued which makes it even dearer to me. I'm going to use it for magickal purposes, since it has a nice-sized compartment underneath the lid for stones and whatnot.
What are your latest, greatest thrift finds? :)
