    I can’t resist bragging. In my favorite Denver thrift store, Mile High, I found an oriental rug for $39. ❤it is about 4x 6 ft. When I had it cleaned the oriental rug expert said “ i have good new and bad news. Of it were from Persia it would be worth $10,000, but it is from Pakistani and only worth $5,000. It is by far my best ever find and still beautiful.
    The rug you found is beautiful too. My favorites are those with red.

    On the rug use only cold water because it will shrink then get absolutely all water out so it does not shrink while drying. It is almost worth it to have someone come in to clean it.

    There are some pretty decent thrift stores in Kansas city. The Waldo city area also has a few good ones, especially the City Thrift. My husband has bought some French cuffed dress shirts there that had Saville Road tailoring tags from London still on them. They fit him perfectly and were an amazing bargain. Bought a heavy vintage cast iron bistro table with a beveled glass top and chairs for our patio for $40. And i mean heavy. Good furniture as well as home goods. Savers thrift stores are also wonderful, we frequent the ones on the North end of KC near Liberty or on Barry Road. I saw someone in the comments mention Hillcrest thrift and I second that recommendation as well, they're outstanding!! Tons of furniture and the store is put together so nicely. We live one and a half hours north of KC and go there every few months. Glad to see somone giving KC thrift stores a shout out! Happy thrifting!

    I'm not a big fan of rugs of any kind in the bathroom if they aren't the throw in the washer quite often type. I believe they can harbor bacteria. I really like the blue abstract watercolor, but don't expect it to last long at all if it's an original and if you keep it in a damp area like a bathroom because just as your mirrors can fog up, the glass on the artwork will fog and collect moisture eventually (actually won't take too long) and ruin the paper and make the paint run. Don't mean to sound negative. I just really liked your pick there and want you to get a long life out of it. If it's a print, the paper will still become damaged and wavy, but at least the color shouldn't run as much. Those 4 rustic chairs! I'd have found a way. I bought a Heywood Wakefield table with 6 chairs in Kansas City once. I was driving a Honda Accord back when they were really more of a sporty car as opposed to a sedan. I got the whole set in that car with all the windows and doors closed properly. Still don't know how, but I REALLY wanted them. 😀

I purchase a beautiful wool runner and a 8x10 wool area rug. Both $5 each. The large rug will cost me $100 to have it professional clean.
