Thrifting Thursday

I am now fascinated with Thrifting blogs!!! I have always had a 'thing' for thrift shops and now I see so many others share my fascination with them!!! I first remember thrifting when I was in college, but necessarily because of the cheapness, but more so a thrill with the one of a kind clothing, decorations, etc, that I could find!!!

I am not a big "NAME BRAND" type person. I do have a few 'name brands' that I stay with but not too many.

I did pick up 2 'name brand' tops at my local thrift shop yesterday. I was more attracted by the color of the first one more than anything.

The green/blue one is 3/4 sleeves with a kinda cowl neck, by Izod.

I paid $6. :-)

The second is long sleeves, but thin material, by Gap.

I paid $3 :-)

Inspiration station cards

Yeah Me again for actually making cards using the stuff I put in my Inspiration Station!!! LOL

I had a few more, but have needed them for bday in the last few weeks.

Baby Boy Blue

Whipped up this card for a coworker expecting a little bundle of joy next month.

Yeah me for using some of that new "twine-ish" yarn I bought recently!!!

My Valentine Inpiration station

I mentioned earlier that I love all of Michelle W's stuff. Well she has posted in the past her Inspiration stations that she put together around the holidays. Here's hers from last year http://michellewooderson.blogspot.com/2010/01/2010-valentine-inspiration-station.html She pulls out ribbon, flowers, eyelets, brads, etc and puts them together as a station to work from. Well here is mine! Smaller scale, but hopefully I can create some cute Valentine's from all this inspiration!!!

One more Christmas post ( I think)

Ifound this Vintage table runner at my local church thrift shop. I fell in love at 1st site!!! CATS!!! It is in perfect condition, I found no labels, so I am guessing it was handmade with LOVE!!!
