Sarah from Thrifty Decor Chick and I went thrifting together last week. I thought what she tweeted was so appropriate “Had a blast thrifting with @infarrantly today!! Our vision for gross stuff is astounding. :)” ![IMG_1682_thumb[6]](https://lh6.ggpht.com/_5GI6Pyw8srE/TBZ4rSSyi3I/AAAAAAAAH0E/yRTj-KnG0MA/s1600-h/IMG_1682_thumb64.jpg "IMG_1682_thumb[6]")
We started at Midland Antiques in downtown Indy. Here are some things that caught my eye…
Damask was once considered only for formal living rooms and is now popular in any decor…I love the curvy legs on this piece.
This hutch could really be a showstopping piece in the right decor. II love the detail on the lower doors.
Looking for bowl filler? How about empty turtle shells? That would make a great conversation starter.
This “cheese” sign was ginormous. It was all rusty and aged. How fun would it be in a photography studio?
This Chinese apothecary cabinet would be perfect for a scrapbooking room. Talk about big time storage space for all those brads, stickers, punches, embellishments, etc.
Next we went to what I called “the ghetto furniture store.” I found out it really does have a name. It is a second hand furniture shop in downtown Indy where there are dimly lit rooms with used furniture everywhere.
Sarah bought this adorable waterfall bench to breath some life into. 
Lastly we walked next door to the D.A.V. thrift store and found a few nick nacky things. I see spray paint in their future. Makeovers showing up at a blog near you!
Love Midland Antiques!!!! Jason and I would go there for dates when we lived in the area – – that's actually where he got our HUGE stained glass window that he surprised me with for our 9th anniversary! gonna have to go there next time I am in the area!
Sounds like a blast!!
Where is the "ghetto furniture store?" I work downtown and I would love to go on my lunch break!
You all did great! LOVE that hutch and I would kill for the Chinese apothecary piece…of COURSE it has a "Sold" sign on it. :s Good times!
Midland Antiques looks like such a fun store! My hubby would be a big fan of that Chinese Apothecary cabinet.
That "Cheese" sign is so cool! Love it. Sounds like you guys had a great time.
Oh, what a fun time! I love thrifting with friends. 🙂
Wow! I am desperate for that couch. I love it!
I love the pics but the turtle shells? Oh NO! I have a fear of reptiles!!! How fun though 🙂
You found some really great stuff! I bet you laughed at the price tag on the hutch…considering you paid $0 for the one on the side of the road!
Love that apothecary! What a fun time!
I was going to ask where the "ghetto furniture store" was too LOL. I live on the eastside and am I always looking for those kind of places.
Love everything but the empty turtle shells.. Since I don't know where they came from and whether the turtles were murdered or died naturally, I have to pass on that one.
