Tuesday Treasures - September 29, 2026
Finally! Some good stuff from Goodwill! Not one of the new stores of course.
A 19" wooden mask. I always associate the dots with Australia, however this could be African. Or Indonesian. $7.19 because it's so big.
I now have seven carved wooden masks from around the world on my bathroom walls! I didn't set out to collect them, I just found them over the years.
This is a Pacific Northwest wood carving from red cedar. $4.04
Hyacinth by Patricia Jones, copyright 2001. $4.04, a surprisingly low price as it's framed. There is just the one small paint scuff in the top right, the white line. There are a few artists with the name, but none fit the signature or style. (I cut off some of the signature, but it's P in a stylized J wrapped around it.)
How about a glass horned lizard? It's just 2" and a pendant. $1.34 Online descriptions say it is "borosilicate glass with embedded dichroic glass elements" that have a color-shifting effect. It's cute, and I see others online, but I am doubtful this could actually be something someone paid $60 for! But, maybe it took a lot of time to make.
The eyes are pretty realistic!
I also bought a big bag marked "dogs" in the pet aisle that mostly weren't for dogs, or even safe for dogs. Mickey was allowed to keep two stuffies and a squeaky toy.
I'm not sure what's up next week for Tuesday Treasures, I haven't found any as of today! I used to have posts scheduled weeks in advance.
It's too bad the thrifting hasn't been as good lately. It might be an economy thing as well as the transitions of your usual haunts.
