When you are a person that likes to sift through garage sales and thrift stores, you know that it can be hit or miss a lot of the time. A cool shirt here, a table you can redo there. And you have to be able to stand the stale smell of the store and really use your imagination. (Why don't they put air fresheners in those places?)
A cozy cotton button up cardigan in perfect shape and one of my favorite colors originally from Sears.
Short sleeved Italian Mohair blend sweater from the Limited, in a deep peacock blue to match my door.
Another cute sweater in perfect condition from A.N.A. JC Penney ,one of my favorite brands-will be nice with leggings and boots.
When I came home with my bags full of goodies at such great deals, I felt so blessed. It's the little things that make this girl happy!
This week, I couldn't believe the jackpot of cool stuff I found between two thrift stores. I can hardly find clothes I like or in good shape and I found 3 perfect sweaters! And I found out Savers has 25% off every Monday-how could I have not known that?
Here is a photo stream of what I found:
Pretty lemon yellow linen napkins, oh, what shall I make with these?
A nice Tupperware cake carrier! -(my husband thinks it might have been his mother's from when he was little--Tupperware does last forever!) And a nice Pyrex dish in pretty cream and orange.
I couldn't believe someone wouldn't want this Swan Creek Candle in Pumpkin Vanilla-these high quality soybean wax candles normally cost around $15!
Short sleeved Italian Mohair blend sweater from the Limited, in a deep peacock blue to match my door.
A ruffled Vera Wang scarf in a perfect purple!

Thanks ladies, I'm also not the best at finding clothes at thrift stores, but that's why I was so excited when I found these things in the perfect sizes, styles and colors-don't give up, someday might be your "jackpot day"!
