Fine wall art

This mixed media artwork looks like it survived a house fire. Barely. The black part is literally a charred piece of wood. There is leather, burlap, chunks of pressed wood, wine corks and I stopped looking that closely because it was a little disturbing. The donor said it was supposed to be the Golden Gate Bridge. I found out later that day that they had tried to consign it but no one wanted to sell it for them.

Wind chimes

You could probably whip this gift up in a pinch if you needed to make something for that special redneck in your life. Yee haw beer and beans.

Soda can cover

I'm pretty sure it does but you probably don't recognize the feeling.


Sunglasses

These sunglasses were so great that I got multiple models. They look especially great on my cute daughter. She was playing dress-up at the store.

Nesting dolls - KISS

I would have never come up with an idea like this. It is strangely awesome though.

Retro pin

An old pin with the wisdom of the ages. At least you can wear it to try to convince yourself and others that you are better off being alone. Forever alone...

Restraining device

Vintage and kinky all in one.


Geeky donation of the day

3 sheets of star trek trading cards and a pen. We found 6 more sheets of trading cards, the borg and Data figurines later on and added it to the pile. I didn't sell it for $2.00. That was the yard sale sticker.

Edited version

The stickers are strategically placed to protect the innocent. It's a good thing we also had those stickers donated today.

I want this couch so badly but unfortunately I have no where to put this. This is SOO cool though.

Ewww it's glistening

I shouldn't have been surprised when I opened this, but I was. It was horrible. It's still goopy and wet.

Support system

The thing that amused me about this donation is the little price tag. It says Freeman's. Also the box looks like it came from the 1970s.

Parting gift for the ex?

My brother wanted this shirt but he really isn't an asshole, unless you are stupid. Then all bets are off.

Lunch box

One of the coolest lunchboxes! Feel free to comment with your favorite quotes.


Business Card

The guy pictured on this card literally walked into my store and gave this to me. I was a little flabbergasted but I know who to call if I ever need a stuntman that looks nothing like me.

Sculpture

If I was the artist, I would title this piece "Age Old Lament". He is clearly mourning the loss of his hair.

Blatant Plagarism

If you look closely at the signature, it looks like they painted over the original signature and put their own.

Awesome glasses!

No, my mother didn't donate me. Someone donated these rocking, high prescription, glasses though!

Disturbing plush

Cat stuffed animal that can give birth. The baby in the middle looks like it has birth defects. Seriously, it looks nothing like it's supposed siblings. They actually have necks.
