More lovely thrift goodies..These were all found at the same shop.. Lucky me.. thank you people, for donating good stuff for good causes and other good people.. This colletion certainly feeds the 'vase fedish ' my mama and i share..lol.. just wait till she sees these beauties..In the bottom picture, the darkest one (2nd from the r) is just her style...That would look very lovely at church...The clear glass one is really a kitchen utensel jar... luv it.. In the middle picture, these white ones are to dye for...lol...the one on the left is very heavy, not sure what its made of, and the one on the right will probly go in Mama's collection...Her fav colors... In the top picture, the figurine vase is like none I have ever seen before, it may not even be a vase.. the top has a screw on peice... and it is hollow inside...it has very lovely colours...and of course I could not leave behind this mismatched pair of salt and pepper shakers...they are just to 'lovely'...

Wednesday's thrift

Wednesday's are a very good day for thrifting...At our fav thrift shop, when you spend $20 on a weekday, they give you a coupon for half off anything you buy on the following Sunday...Great idea.. Great thrift shop...Hubby collects the books (I do collect anything Peter Rabbit.) and has found some really good ones for the granbabies...and a few short stories that he reads before bedtime..The skirt hangers were all 3 pks for $1.01..which turned out to be 26 of them..(and boy do I need these to hang all the cute skirts thrifted lately) .I felt (and still do) really lucky to find this cropped pair of Lucky jeans...yes I said Lucky....and yes I am wearing them right now..lol..they feel great...Oh, how could I not get this cute little girl's dress..It is a little big for Emma right now, but not for long...These babies are growing like wild weeds...And we are lovin' every minute of it...Happy Thrifting...

Thrift Saturday...











Saturday is our day to thrift, hubby is off that day and we can shop more than one store if we are in the mood...This Saturday we did shop at 2 stores and I was sooo blessed to find another pair of Hollister jeans. (Ya just don't find these at yard sales, or at least I don't) They are too long and have a bit of wear on the bottoms of the legs, but that's no prob, I'm thinking of cutting them off to fit me...Also picked up a cute pair of cropped pants, a denim skirt, a belt, set of blue glass s&p shakers and a Coke christmas santa glass... (this one is for Mama, she is the Coke collector) and an apron pattern...

At the 2nd store I found this really cute green Hollister top, a pair of Old Navy crop pants, another denim shirt (this one is a bit longer), a cute white eyelet top and a book all about Herbs...
That's all for now.. Happy thrifting...

Hollister jeans!!!




We don't thrift very often on weekdays ( hubby gets home rather late sometimes ) but on Wednesday we both felt the need to thrift...lol...and boy was I surprised to find this great looking pair of Hollister jeans, and they are short, yee haw- I don't have to cut them off to make them fit!!! A cute brown top from Soo, a brown print apron with red binding that has funny poctets (i think they were sewn on backwards) and this cream colored sheer apron with a tiny bell sewn on the pocket...Not quite my cup of tea but I couldn't just leave it there. It has the cutest pocket made out of sheer eyelet...
Happy thrifting....
