Just got back, posted a picture. Beautiful day here today, warm and windy.The thrift store was pretty busy, the shelves were really full today, guess its that time of year when people are cleaning out again, seems to be a Spring and Fall thing to do.

Very nice stuff, Nancy. I went to a little thrift store here today and everything in the store was half off! I found a cute pillow for $1 and a beautiful fall tablecloth with pumpkins all over it for $2 and it's cloth. And a cute table runner. And a bunch of t-shirts I am going to rip up to make yarn. I am ready to go. I love thrift stores. And you have got to be the thrift store queen with all those great finds.

I love the goodies found in the most unexpected of places! The treasures I find in thrift stores and garage sales mean so much more to me than the ones purchased at expensive stores. I don't know what it is.. maybe it's the fact that these items have a history to them.. I'm not sure. I feel like heading out the door right now and going on a treasure hunt!

I just put the tablecloth on my very long dining room table and it fit! It is so pretty. And when I bought it the lady couldn't find a price tag and just charged me $2. When I unfolded it there was a tag and it was $5. It really is pretty. I can't wait to get some fall stuff to put on the table now. It sure does change the way a room looks.

You have such a gift when it comes to displaying things. Everything always looks so pretty. Love the bowl with the flowers.
