Queen of the Thrift Store

I saw this at the thrift store today and I regret to say I did NOT buy it.  I’m having some … sad feelings about my decision this evening and am wondering if I should go back tomorrow and buy it.  It didn’t have a price tag so I was annoyed and didn’t want to carry it around the store and ask how much it was… but maybe I should have….

    OY! Passed it up…… YES, go back. BUT is it a lamp or just a bust? If the latter, I do $15 tops. Unless the top of her head is carved out and you can put stuff inside of her and then I’d go a little higher.

    Great shot one way or the other.

    Don’t walk, RUN back to the thrift shop and buy this at once.

    Oh dear, she was gone when I went back after work today…. :( I promise I won’t let it happen again, haha! I’m kind of kicking myself, but considering so much stuff was overpriced, maybe she would have been more than I wanted to spend anyway.

    Anyway, she wasn’t a lamp, just a bust. She was hollow inside, you could look inside from the bottom.

    Her crown kinda looked like it wanted to come off, but I couldn’t it to remove itself and didn’t want to break her. I hope whatever person bought her gives her a good home.

    If it makes you feel better, that’s the kind of statue that they find at the beginning of horror movies that later comes alive and eats peoples’ brains.
