My sister is again responsible for today's thrifted Thursday. She called me in a panic from an estate sale asking if I wanted any Fiesta Ware.Did I want any Fiesta Ware? Seriously....ummmm......YES!!!!!I absolutely ADORE the colors of Fiesta Ware. They are amazing.And since I can't show you it all at once (I have to leave you in suspense somehow, don't I?)

Thrifted Thursday—A Thread Shelf
I know that I say this every week...but I think this is one of my most favorite thrifted items ever! It was at a garage sale and priced at $5.00, but I had to have it. I am in the middle of a sewing corner re-do (which I think is going to take forever...because I just keep changing my mind) and knew it would be a perfect place to store thread and thimbles.And I LOVE that it is made from old measuring sticks and rulers. Isn't it awesome?Liz and I were talking the other day...that we are those ... View the Post

Thrifted Thursday: On Mending….
Today I pulled out a dress Elizabeth bought last summer a thrift store. I love it. But it's damaged.Where the tears are combined with the type of fabric means that the mending is going to require my least favorite kind of sewing---hand-stitching. Bleck.

Wouldn't it just be easier to hack it up and ... View the Post

Thrifted Thursday—My Favorite Shirt
This is my favorite shirt.No, I am not an 85 year old woman...at least not for like 50 more years...but even then I will probably still be wearing this wicked awesome old lady shirt because yes, I really wear it.A lot.Although, I should admit that I don't look quite like the mannequin wearing it.I'm um...not so..aaaaa...busty.Not even after having a baby.Apparently I'm just built to look like a 14 year old boy.Anyways....I love this shirt...the style, the color, and the fabric and I bought it ...
