My 'Treasures' actually started on Monday when we went to visit a friend.
She is an avid reader and has been purging her book shelves and before donating all these Francine River books - she thought of me. What a blessing!!!
She also gave me a tub of denim - some of it already cut up into squares!
She was the first person to give me a stack of blue jeans when I first started making denim quilts.
Thank you, Marie!
I met Brenda on Tuesday up at Texas Thrift and she gave me this cute honeybee T-shirt and a set of Bath and Body Works Shower Gel and Lotion.
I was already off to a good start!
My heart squeezed when I spied this cute pumpkin!
It's living in my foyer right now - a harbinger of things to come!
Speaking of pumpkins - I am excited about our pumpkin patch down at the ranch and hope to get to leave one day next week for the country,
I just love this cute little rug!
We have a black glass top cooking stove and I don't like the way it looks so I keep a rug on it when it's not in use. I've looked at the covers you can buy but they are pretty pricey!
This was just $3!
A wastebasket for Louis Dean's bathroom - and the one he was using is now out in the gazebo.
I was looking for a floor lamp to use in the living room.
After Brenda and I parted - I decided to go to the Goodwill and I found one!
Brand new bottle of Skin So Soft - for $4.
Louie Dean brought me coffee in bed this morning and used this pretty cup....
NICE!
A cute cover for Tabitha to sit on as she keeps watch by the kitchen French doors.
I bought a super nice tablecloth and washed it and put it right on the table.
It will be perfect to use with my sunflowers later.
Whoever donated this 600 piece puzzle was thoughtful!
The straight edges are already separated in a small plastic bag.
I think this book will be a good one to either read aloud with Louis Dean or he can read it on his own.
I love that he enjoys reading!
There's a story to these pillowcases.
They were put together three to a hanger - but they did not put the matching ones on the same group!
So I had to buy THREE bundles to get these three sets and three odd ones. I tossed the purple one but the others were nice.
For $3 I bought this wall vase.....
and came home and used Windsor Newton Olive Green oil paint to stain it.
Next time I'm at Hobby Lobby I will buy some nice green picks to finish it off!
I will close tonight's journal entry with this thrift store find - a metal sign that I am going to hang on one of my kitchen cabinet doors......$3!
I think the half cup of Goodwill means a thrift shop outing!
