Gosh you're funny! Great finds, so glad I popped over for a visit after seeing your 10 Thrift Store Tips on Pinterest. Love the chair--not sure I'd fix it up, might just use it as is. I'm a vintage blogger too; always glad to find others with the same love (and same sickness--hoarding, that is).
Blessings,

Red-handled kitchen utensils are always a great find and who doesn't need one more thermos! I really love that office chair and can't wait to see the "after." Great finds!!!

Great finds, Pam. I, too, collect Thermos and milk glass and would have snapped those two up in a flash. I also have that tomato slicer and use it nearly every day during the summer. Your post makes me feel right at home! Can't wait to see what you do with your finds.

You find the best stuff!! I would love to go picking with you~~it would be worth the drive from IL to OH..what's IN when there's Pam & great vintage goodies at the other end?! I had some of my best finds ever this weekend, and I thought of you. Prices in Chicagoland are often a bit higher than you find, but I do get some deals. I can't wait to see your "vignettes"---your thermos styling always makes me reminiscent of kitschy camp stuff from my childhood. :-)

I have the exact wire shelf unit. Have had it for years and I probably picked it up at a thrift shop. It is used as a plant rack on the patio. But I doubt it's any type of newer merchandise. I'm guessing 60s or 70s. Love your finds !

I've never seen one of those things before (tomato slicer), but I imagine I will start seeing them everywhere! Love the wire shelf, really hope for your sake it's MCM. Any spelling errors I attribute to this gigantic advertisement lingering over the comment box on my Samsung S4. I can't see what I am typing!!
