thrift stores scores!

sunday afternoon my mom scooped me up and we headed up to concord, nc to the depot at gibson mill. what a place!  my mom was driving along 77 the day before and saw a billboard so she got off at the exit and ventured into the antique mall. she knows my love for charlotte's sleepy poet, so she took me back the next day. this is like sleepy poet x 3 - it's amazing!

 

 here are some goodies that i found:

 

a vintage SEC rocks glass. since neither south carolina or arkansas are on the glass, i know it was made prior to 1990. i love the south eastern conference with all my heart & this glass is totally awesome, even though it's prior to south carolina joining.

 

speaking of the gamecocks, i found this awesome carolina/clemson rivalry book.

 

 

my nickname growing up was taz, so naturally i buy everything i see that is tazmanian devil. couldn't pass up this awesome glass!

 

 

and last but not least, i found two more of the taz glasses i have been collecting for a few years. i found the first one in a thrift store on magazine street in new orleans. i belive the second was found at sleepy poet. and i found the last two on sunday and squealed out loud - i am so pumped i now have a complete set of 4! i especially love that they've come from 3 different places in 2 different states. i will keep these glasses forever!

so if you're ever in need of some awesome thifting - plan a day trip up to gibson mill & check out their awesome warehouses! ps. on saturdays, sleepy poet has the gourmet grilled cheese truck, papi queso, at their store. stop by for vintage goodies & a grilled cheese that will change your life!
