I popped into a few thrift shops today while out and about. It certainly pays to check in…and often. One day there’s nothing…the next day you could score big time. It you know what you are looking for, it just takes a minute to look for new things.
Sally Ann had a great linen table cloth….for .99cents! No stains or anything.
Value Village had a great selection of old pillowcases and sheets. These remind me of the bedding I grew up with! No quite sure what I’ll do with them yet…just thought they were fun. Most were .99cents each.
They also had these cute little oval dishes from Buffalo China. 4@ .99cents each. Right now I think I’ll use them in my craft room to hold odds and ends.
I've been following several blogs of those that have traveled to Spokane Washington to either go to or be in the Farm Chicks show. I think I've mentioned the Farm Chicks before. They put on shows in the northwest a couple of times a year, have a great website and store as well. I believe they have written books and I have seen them recently in Country Living. It's the kind of thing I would love to visit if they were just a little bit closer.
Happy Monday morning!
Okay...I can take no credit for this idea. It was my brilliant partner in crime....Darlene. She found the idea in a " how do be crafty while recycling" book she recently picked up. I can' wait for her to get hers finished so I can post a pic for you....I'm sure they will be totally different than mine.
Remember this vintage laundry hamper on wheels? I picked it up on my last outing, not really sure what I would end up doing with it. If it fit in my laundry room, I would have used it there since it really is pretty sturdy, and the wheels even still roll.
Last week I was poking through Value Village and came across this hutch in the furniture department. I hummed and hawed....pictured it with all my stamps inside....pictured it painted white...
