Milestone Slipped by Me!!

I passed a milestone just before Christmas and didn't even realize it! I have been blogging for a year! I can't believe it, but I do wonder what I did before I blogged!! Guess I will be having a late giveaway so stay tuned!! LOL  On to more fun things, a trip to Goodwill (where else do I go on Thurs morning you must wonder!! First beautiful buttons off of dollar deals, the smaller ones are a pale green which doesn't show up well in this picture. They match the lace that I have to show you below.Isn't  this bird picture adorable? Not bad for 50 cents!
tHere is the green lace, the flash washed it out a bit. There are some pearls and sequins attached to it too. Not alot of it but for a dollar I am not complaining! The book below is old and filled with beautiful music that I can use in projects. The deal of the day, I won't bore you with pictures: Ladies Ice Skates! $6!!! Yes!! I have been wanting some for awhile to use as decorations. Now I have them and at a bargain price to boot. Next is deciding exactly what I want to do and how to do it. Do they stay while, do I add decals of pink things, mmmmm Questions, ideas! No I am not planning to take up skating due to the supposed snow that is to grace our doorsteps tonight! Totally insane to snow in SC just because I moved here.........................

  2. Nice finds! I wish our local thrift shops had such nice bargains. I guess I'll have to wonder down to a larger town and shop at their little stores. LOL
