I love this time of year! Not only are the flowers in bloom and the sun is shining but rummage sales, estate sales & flea markets are in full swing.
This is my haul from the last few days. I just got the owl today for $.25!!!!
I love him so much. Rose brought more fabric over. These are just a few. They are just calling "make aprons! Make pot holders! Make cloth napkins" and maybe even whispering "Make appliance covers!" Ok- that last one may not be happening but I for some reason I am thinking about it!
These wrapping paper sheets are so cute that I am not sure if I can bear to wrap something and then watch the paper be torn up- Maybe I could make cards with it instead? Or just frame them on the wall of my sewing room?
The kids think I bought this lunch box for them but really I bought it for myself. HAHA! I am going to store zippers or thread or something in here.
I usually give the kids $1 each to shop. They can get anything they want but it has to be SMALL. This is how I get them to follow me around while I do all my looking. Here is Cal's treasure- he wanted to make sure you all saw what he got too.
The only problem with having this kind of fun is that you start to accumulate A LOT of stuff. My vintage sheets and pillowcases are piling high! I am going to have to start listing in my gingercake shop again ASAP or I am going to be on the next episode of hoarders. Maybe I should propose a new show called "craft supply hoarders?"
