Things My Toddler

is trying to teach me....

 

In 50 years

I will remember the time we spent together

not

the things you bought me....

Guess Where?

Can you Guess

what I am doing for the next few days?

of course

I will also

be hitting up

a

few secret thrifting spots
and working on a bit
of journaling

as well....

Enjoy your Wednesday!

Thriftshare Monday....

Thriftshare Monday....

after a long crazy two weeks

I finally had the chance to sneak in a quick

bit of thrifting therapy...

My Great Aunt used to collect blue glass

she had all of it displayed in her kitchen window...

I inherited a few and have added one or two

I got two of these for .25 cents each

My little tribute to my dear aunt

I love when the light shines through them in the afternoon...

Then I found these few hankies $2.00 each

and one of them looked familiar to me...



So I went home and looked through my collection.

The yellow one is just like one my mother gave me

that belonged to my Great grandmother.

I thought it would be interesting to show you all

the box my mother had kept the hankies wrapped in which was passed on to her.

It contained a few bits and pieces of tatting and lace,

some J.and P Coates thread and some other necessary sewing implements

The box has lovely age to it and beautiful graphics.

I can just see my great grandmother with this tucked away

in a drawer or her cedar chest.

She tended to hoard somewhat,

being a mother during the Great Depression.

It turns out there were lots of items "tucked"away all over the house.

For $4.50 I think I did pretty well!

What did you find?

Head on over to

Apron Thrift Girl

and see what everyone else found as well!

Happy Monday!

Dinosaurs were the coolest thing to ever walk the earth...

Who wants a cat?

Learning is one of the few things you can do

for a lifetime and always see something new

no matter what your age....

I must admit that this was

(in his mind)

the greatest day ever to see real

Tee-Rah

bones!

Happy Friday!

Whatzit cabinet?!

Most people I know have junk drawers...

I have a cabinet in need of some help!

There is no shelf and this is the catch all for

straws

icing

sprinkles

cupcake papers

lollipops

flour

olive oil

canning supplies

etc.

Anyone have any ideas?
