Thrifting

This week when Karyn, Dianne and I went thrifting, we found some sheets. The good ones (above) came from a thrift store in Pennsylvania. Karyn (and Joe) thought I already had the one on the top left and made it into a dress. The colors are the same, but the diagonal pattern is not on the sheet. It's a good thing, because I love it and I think it needs to be a skirt.

The other three you will probably see on Karyn's blog soon. They were sets and we split them. The pink one is Shabby Chic. Karyn spotted that set. We had just been to Target and were looking at them there. I think I will save mine for matching Easter dresses next year.

And then we went to my thrift store. We didn't find much, well besides five of the tea cups and saucers sets. I went to find Bertha and she gave me a huge garbage bag of sheets ... for free. It was mostly yucky stuff in there. There were a few good pieces in the bag though (above). The check one on the left is Martha Stewart. (I'm thinking shorts for the boys for next summer or ties for them for Easter next year. We'll see.)

The other two are okay. It looks like the butterfly one has already been cut. I don't know what will become of what's left of it. The floral one I swear I thought I bought it before, but a quick browse of my blog didn't produce any evidence. (I thought it was one I purged a few months ago.)

The rest of the bag is going to be washed and donated to Purple Heart next month.

And while I was enjoying time with friends and thrifting away, poor Sawyer was at home and taking another tumble. This time an older brother was pushing him on the swing too fast. I'm guessing it wasn't his baby swing ...
