Thrifty Thursday: Salt 'n' Pepper Shakers and a Pretty Lamp

Happy Thursday!  
My boys started all of their summer activities this week and for some reason I am exhausted!  They are the ones running around and swimming all day......I'm just the taxi!  But somehow they want to go till midnight, and by 8:00 I am done!  Funny how that is!

But I did manage to get to ONE thrift store this week, and it was GOOD!
Another funny this is the Thrift Store!  I have been searching for a fun set of wooden Salt/Pepper shakers and have had no luck!  But don't worry, this week I found 3 sets....yeah 3! 
At the same Goodwill, on the same day! Isn't that kinda funny?!
Here they are all prettied up:
I'm not sure what I'm going to do with all 3 sets, 
but
I am the most excited about these tall ones:

 I used acrylic paint on all 3, but I only used polycrylic on the 2 blue sets.  


On the green set I really liked the matte look so I did without the poly.

 The 2 short sets cost $4 each
Tall set: $6

 I also scored this FABULOUS antique lamp!  Isn't she gorgeous?!  I love her so much because she is peach, which is one of the colors in my piano room!  She came at a price of $7.00!
The shade came from my garage...one that has been unused for quite some time, 
but it worked nicely with her!
