Thrifty Find Friday

Hi! Over the past few months I have found a few pieces of American Girl size furniture and wanted to share what I found! I can't believe how much time has passed since the last Thrifty Find Friday,  it was only a few months ago that I started finding more stuff again :) At a resell shop I found the Pleasant Company Desk & Chair ($40) plus the Mini Macintosh ($32) that came out in 1996 (!)The only thing missing is the mouse pad, which I can easily recreate with foam :) It was only $10! The computer does need new batteries and once I change the batteries out and clean up the desk and chair I might do a review if you are interested. 










I have always wanted this set, I think it is an awesome addition to any doll house/space and a spinning chair! I think this will go into Lindsey's room.  
The second find bench I found at a garage sale for $1. The bench does need painted although the picture included is what it looks like painted the exact color I want it to be :) Can you guess who it is for? 



 
The bench can easily fit one doll and will look great in Kirsten's room, it might fit 2 dolls if they are squished together.  
The next find you may recognize in my last post, I found this chair at an antique store for $12. It was expensive but the quality is amazing. I thought this would look very nice in Felicity and Caroline's room. 






 
Extra Find: I found this cute picture frame at a thrift store for $0.50 and thought it would be so cute to hang up or display on one of the dolls nightstands. I may just have to keep it on this desk!
