I’ve been feeling like my bedroom is a bit too minimal for my taste, so I hit up some thrift stores a few weeks ago to find some accessories. On a very small budget I was able to find some attractive silver pieces to dress things up. I even gave some of the items a new purpose.
I’m using the teacup as a cell phone holder since I use my cell phone as my alarm most of the time. The dish I bought is now a valet for my keys and work ID, and that little silver bowl is where I toss my jewelry before I fall asleep.
I’m very happy with the results and with how inexpensive it was to put this all together. I spent $11.00 on all the items pictured above, and all it took was a little bit of rummaging through the aisles of my local thrift stores.

Which thrift store did you go to? That stuff is so cute! Every thrift store I go into has mildewed furniture and ashtrays from motels dating all the way back to 1988.

Hey chica—love the bedside table accessories! You have great taste girlfriend! I’m moving at the end of June into a townhome and am looking forward to updating and decorating. Right now I’m working on the uncluttering and giving things back to charity —the other day I sold back a bunch of Dallas’s stuff and got $40.00 from a resale shop! Ok—I’m rambling—I’ll call you this weekend. Love ya!
