Charity Shop Mooching - From the Sublime to the Ridiculous

Firstly an object of great desire .........  a wall light found in a charity shop in Llanduno recently .........
....... not to every ones taste I know, but very me if I had the right house and a spot to put it ....... a pair might have been even nicer.  It was priced at £80, a little on the pricey side for a charity shop and a risk if you didn't know about such fittings, but all the same rather lovely.
......... And in the same shop, this holy monstrosity! Now, you all know how much I love a bit of religious kitsch but even this was a little erm ....... too obscure for me, even with its original sticker. It was priced at £4, where I would have felt happier at the £1.99 mark. I'll leave it there with you, however try as I might I couldn't see it anywhere chez Towers ....... BUT ..... looking at it again with fresh eyes, I can now see it in some sort of grotto hidden in the depths of Marc and Rick's Worcester country cottage garden!!!! Ohhhhhhhh bum ........ perhaps I should have bought it after all!!!!!!

I think the lamp you favor has a lot of appeal, especially in the right setting, but that Nativity scene--OMG!!! Putting it in a shell is quite bazaar.
