I Heart Thrifting

“Look at this stuff. Isn’t it neat? Wouldn’t you think my collection’s complete?”


“Wouldn’t you think I’m the girl. The girl who has everything?


“Look at this trove. Treasures untold”


“How many wonders can one cavern hold?”


“Looking around here you think, Sure, she’s got everything”

Technically, that German license plate isn’t from a thrift store—BUT, I found it in the middle of the road (and yeah, did hold up traffic to jump out and get it) on the way back from one, so I’m counting it by extension.

“I’ve got [cake-stands] and [carafes] a-plenty, I’ve got [mason jars] and [mugs] galore. You want [bowls]? I’ve got twenty!”

My mug tower. My collection goes from itty bitty to can-I-fit-my-head-in-this?

Seriously, I feel like Ariel in her cavern every time I add a thrift find to my collection. Knowing that I paid 50 cents for something worth much more, just makes it even better. There are literally 7 thrift stores within a 5 mile radius of my house. Amazing.
