Thrift Shop Finds

Basket, Cheeseboard & Dome, Tea Pot, Mirror, Canister, Wooden Utensils
This morning I picked up this assortment of household goodies for a grand total of $12.38. There's always great finds at local thrift shops. Generally, I donate far more than I purchase and I avoid shopping unless I have specific items in mind. I have the best luck when I scan the store from floor to ceiling, then I backtrack to investigate every nook and cranny.

Your home is just such a welcome pleasant place! You've done a superb job! Look forward to seeing your gardens in bloom! It wil certainly be awhile here in Northern Indiana!
