Thrifty finds...








Hmmm...it's been brought to my attention that I've been slack'n, blog-slack'n that is. My Az girl made it clear that I need to get busy. So here it is...all of my awesome thrifty finds over the past week. I went thrift'n with the awesome mom and we found some great bargains. The glasses above, a set of 10, I found at a local antique store. The gal gave them to me for $15...WOW, I thought that was a deal! Funny, I just tossed out my old ice-cream maker the day I found this one, it was meant to be I guess. Az girl and I went shopping and came across the old Sears ice-cream maker and I snagged it up quick. Also found some awesome vintage pillow cases and table clothes. All in all, it's been a very productive week for me. I hammered out a custom ordered bag for one of my favorite barista's and will be delivering it to her today...I hope it's to her liking...I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
I've had an awesome visit with my dear Az girl. It's been so cool just sitting and chatting with her. I miss those mornings we spent drinking coffee, discussing life and all it's mysteries. Not that deep, mostly kids stuff, family stuff, and girlfriends stuff...you know the "stuff". Anyways just seeing her made me realize how much I missed her and how fortunate I am to call her friend. She's an amazing lady, mother, and friend. She's real, and that's hard to find most of the time. She doesn't' pretend and that's a quality that I admire most of all in a friend...thanks for being a part of my life girlie :-) God bless you and yours...

Nice finds! I love that piece of fab in the center with turqu. Nice! - I have a set up dessert cups that go with those glasses. I've always liked them.
