Thrifting Thursday

I'm back...

I know, I know...I haven't been updating.  at all.   but wait!  I promise this is happening now.  This time of year isn't AS busy for me compared to the fall with the big craft show season.  So I am determined to make this a habit. :)   And the first thing I will post about is my current obsession...   Thrift store re-dos!

I have been completly inspired by new dress a day.   It is really becoming an obsession... whenever I see a thrift store I just have to check it out.   

With this lovely garment...

I took the wonderful shoulder pads out,

cut off the top and put elastic in it,

and shortened the pants to shorts.  

What I love about this romper is that it is sooo comfortable.  And I got it on half off day...so the grand total was only $1.50.  Can't beat that  :)   When I showed the before outfit to my husband...I know he had doubts, sweetly telling me it was ugly.  He was quite impressed with the after :)

af-CAN :)

Here is an afghan I started working on last week...well the beginnings of it! It will be bigger soon :)  I am doing a basic pattern.....I love it because it is so therapeutic!

time, where has it gone?

Wow....February already?   I can't believe it! 

 My sister and I are doing a craft show next weekend.   i can't wait ;)  I haven't had one since December so I have been itching for one...I just hope I have enough stuff!   i will be making TONS of stuff this week :)

You can go here for more info!  I would love to see you there!

here is a sneak peak of what I have made for the show :)

Thrifting...

So I went thrifting with my sister this week and I found a steal!   This clutch, which was supposed to be $1.50, was only $.50!   It has a place where it looks like it once had a strap but I am just using it as a clutch.... why don't I go to thrift stores more often???
