I went to my favorite thrift shop this morning hoping to find a few bits of crewel wool for a special project for this weekend. Lucky me--I found this lot for $2.50! I love when that happens!
The chair below comes from the same shop. Advice: don't walk to your favorite thrifty spot, or you might find yourself carrying a bentwood chair through town.

Besides that project, I have organization on the brain! I would definitely use this luggage for a weekend getaway, but since that won't be happening any time soon I can also see it being used to hold craft supplies! All of these (plus a few more) have been added to the vintage shop.

AND... As for the white elephant in the room... New blog design!! I have been working on it myself (while ignoring my child, of course. yikes!) and have a few more elements to add. I'm sure things will change along the way, but we shall see.

The new design looks fantastic! The kid was probably too busy having fun to notice :) and those
thrift store finds are amazing...I haven't had much luck at our local thrift stop lately :o( maybe I should take you as a good luck charm! :o)
