Thrift Shopping

*Edited to add that blogger was messed up and wouldn't let me fix this post last night*
Ok so I'm soooooooo behind. So for the one person that actually checks this(Hi Cindy:) to see if I've posted anything new here is a photo post to get me up to date on my thrift shopping.
A wonderful huge afghan that I bought for about 4$

I found this for 2.50$ I love it!

Mike and I ran in a thrift store here in Irving that was about to close. I loved this chair but never thought that Mike would actually like it too. I think I'm rubbing off on him...lol... They were asking 15$(It's a 70's Lazy Boy..They sell for about 100$ on CL) but since we actually came back the next day to get it they lady was so surprised that she sold it to Mike for 10$! It's Emory's favorite chair.

I love owls. I didn't even see this at the thrift store but Rachel spotted it and I couldn't not bring it home. It's huge! Mike hung it above our couch for me.

Goodwilling with my Mom a few months ago I found these. The Goodwills in Sherman/Denison are the best for finding craft items. You have to dig but you can find great vintage patterns.

Vintage towels. I got them for no more than a 2$ a towel. Some were .79$!

I'll try to post more often. I've been working a ton. I do knit/crochet while I'm there. Plus I did get some sewing time in when I finally had a day off. PLEASE remind me next time I decide to use satin binding what a pain in the ass it is! lol
