You know that expression "getting caught with your pants down?" Well, that was me literally the other day and figuratively today. I can't believe I am unprepared for the junk party!
Oh sure I have lots of junk projects in the works, but nothing that is show and tell worthy at this point.
I did however, get a lucky feeling in the pit of my stomach the other day as I drove past my thrift. God Bless! This new Goodwill store is in a swanky neighborhood (within spitting distance of an Anthropology) and it shows! I keep finding great stuff!
I guess green is the color of luck.
Here we have a full box (1 dozen) of never been touched awesome smelling Bayberry green candles from Mole Hollow. $1.99 normally $22!
A very cute wall tin thing from Anthro. $1.99
A little green vase. $1.99
And, my favorite another Urban Outfitters canvas with the price still on it! ($30!) $9.99
If you are looking for ideas for junk rehab here are a few from my past:
Old sweaters made into baby sweater and scarf
Magazine wrapping paper and bridesmaids dress gift bags
Framed Christmas Records
Cabinets into play kitchens
I am looking forward to seeing everyone's junk!
Great finds! You're lucky to have a "designer" thrift shop! Thanks for stopping by my blog!
ReplyDeleteHello, today is my first Junk Party! Lucky you, because you found some cute things. I like that tin, and that canvas is really pretty. I never find anything at Goodwill!
ReplyDeleteJane! I am in love with the hanging tin! And Anthropology? You are my BFF! I LOVE that place! I have to shop online though since we are in HI now...none of that here! Thanks so much for joining in on the junk party! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI have never been within a stone's throw of an Anthropology. Sigh. We don't have any around here. You got some great stuff though!

Love your snags at GW!! The tin is awesome. And I am totally excited about the link for the sweaters for babies. I have a very old wool sweater that has shrunk but can't bear to part with it. I actually hung it in the closet for my baby girl, but now I would love to use this idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog. Look forward to visiting with you lots more times :0)
Great finds. You are an amazing shopper.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds! Green is my favorite color.
