thrift store finds.. part one.. vintage

i am behind again with the thrift store finds. we have been doing a little less thrift store shopping with the colder weather.. and f course.. yard sales are over. but i did find some beautiful things the last couple weeks...





this beautiful 1950's dress. pink with blue ace overlay. and the satin sash in the middle is so pretty! it is missing the zipper.. but i love it! as you can see i have it hanging on the wall so i can enjoy it.



crocheted table runner and corsage pins. not sure how old the pins are.. but they are really pretty. the runner needed washing badly.. but it came our very clean and pretty.. and it has not holes. i love buying these cause i know they are ALOT of wok!



and this 1960's-1970's flower maker.. haven't tried it yet.. but it looks like fun!

goodies from michael's

went to michael's to get some yarn and thread that i needed.. and came home with the yarn and thread.. and these...



these were on clearance in the halloween stuff. i love them! i wish i had gotten more!
pretty shabby supplies! the prima flowers were on clearance.
also picked a few goodies for my sister, amy...tease!

snail mail.






i got these never removed from the box hankies this week. i couldn't resist! aren't they beautiful! i love the way they used to package things! i think they are from the 1920's- 1930s's.

reading..


so i did end up reading eclipse and breaking dawn after new moon. breaking dawn is really crazy.. even reading it the second time..it's just so weird! but generally i love this story. can't wait to see new moon.
so now i am moving on to this stack of books i have sitting here. not sure what i'll read first.. but at least i have some options!
