Thrift Store Find: Milk Glass Collection

It has been several weeks since I have shared my thrift store finds with you guys. So today I just had to do a post to share my latest finds. I have been working on my collection of milk glass pieces and I have had some beautiful finds in the past few weeks.


Overall, I have been trying to focus my thrift store purchases on items that add to an existing collection. I have been building a collection of vintage picture frames, linens and table coverings; but my current goal is to put together a wonderful collection of milk glass pieces that I can use for Crafted Spaces Weddings.


I have several pieces that I have collected over the years, and my husband's grandmother gave me some lovely pieces when we got married. I will like to keep some of these pieces for personal use, so I have decided to invest in building a collection that I can use with clients. I have been doing research, and I have identified some must-have-pieces that will look stunning for a wedding.



Over the past few weeks I have found several bud vases and some larger vases that I think are very beautiful. There are several other pieces that I have my eyes on, including a couple cake stands. I will be sure to share with you how my collection is coming along. I currently have about forty pieces, and I hope to have some of my coveted pieces in the coming weeks.

What do you like collecting? Do you have a collection that you are building on?

    1. Thanks Brandi. Over the weekend I was also able to find a new piece that I have wanted for some time now. You should have seen me, I was like a kid a a toy store. :-)

  2. Awesome blog! Is your theme custom made or did you
    download it from somewhere? A theme like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make
    my blog jump out. Please let me know where you got your
    design. Cheers

    1. Thanks so much! I design websites, but I wanted to work with what Blogger had to offer, so I started with the "Simple" layout provided by Blogger and have done some customization. If you like email me and I can provide you with more information about my web design services. Have a great day!

  3. A wonderful article and what a great way to find balance as a creative entrepreneur. Finding great pieces is like a treasure-hunt, I guess. ❤❤❤
