Thrifty Thursday - Finds of the Week



I did some meandering last Saturday (isn't that a great word, meandering?); and I leisurely visited the 3 local thrift shops.  Didn't spend much money, but I had a chance to take my time and really savor my little purchases.

I paid 50 cents for this 4" letter "S".  It probably stands for super savings, but I'll use it for my name, Sandy!


This gorgeous little bracelet cost me $2.  Love those colors!


$1.50 for the quilt template and fabric and 50 cents each for the patterns -- 2 for a friend and the pirate cape for me.  Now, where did I put my sewing machine?


And my favorite purchase of the day was this 2 qt mixing bowl.  I spent $6 for this beauty.



How was your thrifting week?

LOve the mixing bowl. Colors in that bracelet are perfect. Found a pair of Gloria Vanderbilt pants for $1.79 when I went thrifting. But my favorite find was the hat I'm wearing in my snow pics in my latest Blog post. I only paid ninety cents for it.

ahem..the mixing bowl..does it have a maker's name on the bottom? It is beautiful and reminds me of a very pricey one we see over here in Canada.

Thrift stores are very very fun and the things one can find. Amazing.
