I like to call my thrift purchases 'projects'. Why? Because whether it's a nice cleaning, or sewing buttons on, or spray painting it, there's always something to be done. Therefore mini projects! Today's thrift adventure features three items I found recently during my excursions. So meet my new projects:
First is this adorable yellow cropped jacket, I have always wanted one. Why, I don't know. But I did and it was cute-did I mention it was only $4?
This gem is H&M, found at Deja Vu in a Dress, in Roseville, CA.
I love the pleated arms and the large button. Unfortunately as you can see it's not only missing a button, but the top one fell off shortly after this picture was taken. TLC time!

TLC time!My second find that day is a cute little scarf, perfect for a fall day where you need something to keep the warmth in, but not really 'keep you warm'. Hand knit in all it's imperfection glory, this find was just $2 at the American Cancer Society Discovery Shop in Roseville, CA.
My last find was actually purchased a week before the others, while shopping in Auburn, CA Goodwill. $1 for an owl toothbrush holder. Hasn't been cleaned yet (other than a quick soap and water rinse), and it's definitely not in use yet either. Did I mention I LOVE all things owl? This little guy is no exception! Kudos to my friend who found it for me!

i love all your finds! but that owl...it's so cute. you could even just stick little flowers in it, or pens! i can't believe it was only a dollar. such luck.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I know, I was so excited to find it! I love the idea of a vase, or even the pencil holder! I was literally just thinking yesterday I need a jar for my pens: perfect! Thanks again!
