On a whim, I went in search of some garage sales with my neighbor.  Yeah, I know, what was I thinking. I just had a sale myself to get rid of stuff. We have more room now so I have to do my best to fill it back up.

I did very well in just 2 hours. I got all you see here plus a nightstand for my son’s room for the small price of $22.40.

Since garage sales and thrift stores are the only places I’m allowing myself to purchase supplies this year I think I really scored!

One of my favorite thrift stores up and closed on me a few months back. I was shocked when I pulled up to an empty lot. Luckily I got out and read the sign. Closed! Moving to new location in April. Well, glory be…that new location happens to be MUCH closer to my house!

They opened their doors on Tuesday in the new, larger, more convenient location. I finally made it there today. I bought more than I usually do but I guess I was having withdrawals. With no thrift store and weather too cold for garage sales, its enough to give a girl fits.

But what is that I see…a garage sale sign! Hooray!

I got everything at the thrift store with the exception the pink bag of crafty goodness that came from a garage sale.


Isn’t this just amazing!

I was about to light it and saw the heart.
This candle sits on my stove and must have gotten heating by whatever I was cooking and the heart happened.



I have no idea what or how or even IF I’m going to use any of these items but I put them all together in my own little treasure box.

Just look at the tiny little glasses! Real glass lenses.

An itty-bitty sterling silver spoon…

A mini pocket knife.

Treasures.
