Thrift Store Finds

For those of you who know me well, you know all about my love for thrift stores. Before I make any purchase I always check out my local thrift stores first. This is due partly to me being cheap, but I also like the idea of reusing something that someone else no longer wants. This makes me feel better than going out and buying something new.

I used to go to my favorite thrift store once a week, but now that Miss O is bigger, she is a little harder to entertain while I shop. When at the store, I keep my eye out for certain things, such as fabric or something that I can cut up and use as fabric, any type of craft supplies, kid clothes, and books.

Here is a look at the treasures I got on my last thrifting adventure.

I was super excited about these two. The green shirt is for Miss O who has out grown all of her summer stuff. The sweater is for our new little guy on the way. I am going to brag and say I got it for $1.50
Don't worry I am going to take the green ruffle off the pillow sham before I put it to use. Now the two blue pillow cases are awesome. I am going to turn one of them into a dress for Miss O. They were only $.50 each
I thought the print on these sheets were so pretty. I can't wait to cut them up and turn them into something else. ( I will share photos when I do this)
 
 
 
I so happy with each individual find, but I will admit that seeing them altogether makes them look kinda silly and me a little crazy!! Oh well, they will all become beautiful things that will help to make my house a home.
