The thrift find that waited for me to come back 🖤

Iv had this around a year now and can’t believe I passed it up the first time. While out thrifting for wedding decor they put this out as I was walking by. I stopped and took a picture to admire it but felt it might be too big or though guests would find it odd when they visit. One month later I come back with my fiancé ( now husband - he loves to thrift btw and I’m so lucky for it) he finds it and points it out. At this point I was shocked to cross paths with it again. He came home with us and has a permanent spot above our couch. #thrift #thriftfinds #maximalist #darkaesthetic
