so I haven't been thrifting in almost 2 months...this paint by number was pulled out of a bin at the Goodwill bins this morning by my friend and shopping partner today, Elaine (owner of Bella Flora...my neighbor on NE Fremont)...
while I pulled this other paint by number out of another bin...
Wobble the witch cat, the cutest Halloween book...also arrived via the bins...
while this circa 1880's book came out of ???(can't remember which store, we went to so many)...
the Batman and Robin Monopoly game will get added to our family's collection of different Monopoly games...(we have Star Wars, Chicago Monopoly, Narnia...to name a few...)
this suitcase might be one of my favorites from todays haul...
this cigar box might end up as a gift for my friend Gail (shhhh...don't tell...)
these Lefton geese (ducks?) I thought were really cool to hang on a wall...
the TOKYO mug is from a Starbucks in Tokyo (with the foreign price tag still on it!) to add to my son's Starbuck mug collection...along with the skinny tie in the next photo...)
I can't resist a vintage scoop...or curtain hangers in shabby white...
the glitter peace sign totally cracks me up...along with the Halloween noisemaker and the cardinal lights...in honor of my mom, the cardinal lover...
the souvenir pillow cover from New Orleans...
Elaine grabbed this nativity set out of a bin for me...just love it!
and finally, I couldn't resist the little black top hats... and sequin pins (cuz you never know when you might need those!)...so...I also found a set of 4 vintage metal garden chairs...and some funky princess clothes for my darling granddaughter...
could a woman possibly ask for more??? What a super fun way to spend a day off!!!
And I get to do it all again on Wednesday, when my BFF from Eugene comes up for the day...
I just had so very much fun junking today!!!
hope you all had a great Monday...and here's to a fabulous week!
