Thrifty

I had a great time at garage sales this weekend, mornings like these make all the other early mornings worthwhile. I gathered lots of goodies, especially from this lovely sale put on by a family who is moving their mother in her 90s closer to them. I imagine this lady to be quite glamorous in her day...

 

I know, quite silly wearing a fur collar in heat like this, but I had to give it a try. I imagine it with a sleek black, high necked dress at a winter party (because, you know, I party all the time, ha ha). The scarves have already got their wear as my girls were trying them on all day yesterday. As for the gloves, I don't know if I will have the guts to wear them again, but I'm partial to them because I used to sport them all the time when my husband and I were dating...

 

Silly little log pot, I don't know why I love you so much...

A girlie little tray to put my perfume on, I couldn't say no...

These little embroidery prints will find their way into Holly's room, I feel like I finally know the direction I want to go in there. It may not happen in this house, but light floors, walls and maybe a Scandinavian inspired wallpaper on one wall with light furniture and a vintagy eclectic vibe (does that make sense?) is what I would like ideally. I picture a lovely shared room with matching beds in the next house for the two girls, but maybe that's a dream. Still, I think some vintage pieces are essential to any kid's room to give character, don't you?
Well, that about sums up all the finds of the weekend for me, did you go thrifting this weekend?
