I had a sleepover at Carla's on Friday night, she was off work early so we hit the thrifts - the next day we were out the door early for a few yard sales and a couple of antique shops. I might have gone somewhere different but the situation was still pretty much the same as here, the yard sales mostly had the same old junk. Pickin's were slim!!
First off, I'll share Carla's new/vintage maxi dress from Value Village, I had a filled up coupon for 30% off so that was quite useful, Mom's are handy like that, aren't they?
These are quite different from any of my other blowmolds, maybe they are newer, I don't know. There's no markings on them and I don't think they were ever meant to be lit. I was especially taken with the lantern type ones. They were $2 for all four.
My other Christmas item was a Christmas card box - 25 cents! It's cute though and it's a big one!
Old magazines are always good!
Any excursion where I find a Vera or two is good in my mind, I found four. Carla gave me the Vera scarf tying book. It's funny about finding scarves, sometimes it seems all I can find are the split tip ones, I just don't think the patterns on those are as exciting as the other types of scarves.
I don't know if this is a toothpick holder or a little mini planter, it was made in Japan and it's pretty sweet!
Yesterday I was in the city and found this old piggy bank, it was made in Canada by Reliable Plastics, I think it was a pretty sweet find!
My purchases weren't anything very big but at least I found something!!!
