Did a little Thrifting yesterday…

Mar 24, 2011

I love to shop at Frisco Resale because not only do you find awe­some things but the money goes back into our com­mu­nity to help those in need. It’s a win, win sit­u­a­tion. As you can see in the photo it was a good finds kinda day.

I found a nice sil­ver­plated tray and plan on doing this with it. I’m on the look­out for another one as I really like how the two look together. This will be a pretty way to keep reminders and other things out in front of me. And I plan on using vin­tage but­ton mag­nets my dad made me to attach those reminders too. They’ll work perfectly.

The book I found is going to be torn and turned into this bird and paper flower wreath some­day after my last book dead­line in May. If you click on the images you will find the step by step tuto­ri­als from two very tal­ented ladies.

I plan on using these adorable cher­ries in a fun sum­mer project to teach at The Crafty Scrap­per. I can see these with some cute ging­ham paper, Maya Road Point Blos­soms and aqua accents.

The bak­ing pan is going to hold cute vin­tage molds I have sim­i­lar to these. Each one will be filled with sup­plies I use in all my projects. It will be per­fect to place on my work­sta­tion then once fin­ished I can eas­ily put it back on a shelf or in a drawer. If you love vin­tage items you need to click on the photo and check out the Etsy store “vin­tage by ethanol­lie”… oh, oh, oh she has won­der­ful items.

This cute sil­i­cone ice cube tray is going to be filled with you know it “UTEE” then I’ll dec­o­rate each one into a cute piece of pump­kin art. I was so excited to find this… really.

The pur­ple binder under­neath the book is a never been used brand spankin new Franklin Covey orga­nizer that I’ll be fill­ing in like a mad woman. My days are fill­ing up quickly with dead­lines and oblig­a­tions. I hope it helps ease the men­tal stress just a tad. We will see.

So there you have it my thrift store finds for the day and all of this was under $20.00. I love thrift stores!
