Thrifted This Weekend


What I plucked from obscurity this weekend and transported to my loving home:

{makeover project! owl statues}

{a couple of planters for succulents}

{and a gorgeous juice jar}


What have you thrifted lately?

Thrifted: Last Weekend

Last Friday, I went to one of the most awesome church garage sales I've ever had the pleasure of perusing. The people running the sale were so darned nice, and it was literally two blocks up the street from our house, so I couldn't pass it up. Found some cool stuff, and my husband went back later himself and found more stuff.

Here's what I thrifted:


{this $1 shelf will be a fun piece once refurbished}

{fabric and tablecloths for $0.50 ea or less}

{some clip-on earrings, embroidery hoops, a tray for $1, and an awesome sewing book from 1942 for $0.50}

{isn't she gorgeous?}


{I may end up listing this on my etsy site, haven't decided yet}

{and it came with all this cool stuff inside, all for $2}

{a record for $1, some cool glassware, a photo I'm going to rehang, and another for $0.50 that I'm refurbishing}

{cute, small jug for $2.49}




{bag of fabric for like $2.00. everything in it is AWESOME}


{once home, I kept looking at the bear and saying, "i'm a bear. i'm a fucking bear."}

What have you found lately?

Tuesday's Grey

Hello there!

Today, I felt the need to bring out a pair of my tall, vegan boots. Check these babies out!

It has yet to get really cold here in Kansas, but you just wait! The weather is supposed to dip later this week with a chance of flurries (*insert laughter from any readers north of me*). I want winter!












{modeling is hard.}






{pew!}


sweater: gifted from Mom ($1 sale at Walmart last year)
skirt: St. John's Bay, thrifted ($3)
tights: Target
boots (vegan suede): Alternative Outfitters last winter (here)
necklace: from my grandma (I think) years ago
headband: from an estate sale when I was in high school
ring (which I mentioned yesterday but forgot to show): was my grandma's


When will it start to snow?!?

Mustardy Monday

I don't recall ever doing a "What I Wore" post (SHOCK, I KNOW!). But I've decided to today because, you guys, I actually look pretty cute for having to be in my cubicle all day. And it's an adorable, mustard-colored dress that I found at Goodwill a couple of weeks ago for $5.00.








dress: thrifted ($5!)
shirt: Target ages ago
tights: Target recently
flats: Target this summer
necklace: gift from my hubby
ring: was my grandma's
