Thrifty finds

Three days in a row of Rummage sales! I've been on a shopping spree. I bought Tim a new trench coat ($5) , I thought he would just want the belt because the belt on his old one is frayed but he likes this coat better. I bought a new (old) tablecloth ($1) and new(old) kitchen curtains ($1).
Also- a huge bag of Halloween decorations ($2), a stack of videos (.25- $1), dozens of books, craft supplies, five glass bowls for making terrariums, eight little Pyrex bowls (.05 each), several drinking glasses (still without a dishwasher and it seems like I'm breaking a glass every other day), half dozen cassette tapes (.50 each), a few more Christmas ornaments (somebody stop me), a stack of sewing/knitting magazines from the 40's/50's ($1 for all) and much, much more.



Garbage can for my studio- found on the curb.


Mini tea set (note the penny for size)

A program from a 1983 production of Show Boat signed by a couple cast members including Lonette McKee!

My Mom collects Snowbabies so I bought her this one for .10

Little books- the kind that you see in the rack at the supermarket checkout.



I love vintage children's book illustrations
