i've been shopping...
yes, somewhere other than french larkspur.....
i decided tracey needed a break from me ;0)....
though i'm not sure how much longer i can go....
{insert warning to tracey here}
i'm being brave....
sigh...
sometimes brave is not at all fun....
neither is being poor...
so....i went thrifting...
which is an hour away...
....yes, i live in the middle of nowhere....
i was such a bargain shopper....
i shopped the sales at the thrift shop....
i know....
me....sale....thrift shop....= filet mignon & shrimp dinner...
yum....drool....oh,
i've decided...drooling is so unlady like....
not at all attractive and sophisticated which a prairie girl should be ;0)....
so....i shall be swooning from now on....
i know....
much better....but....
it was a steak dinner after all....
so....drool....one last time....
....anyways....sorry....beef....yum....
{martha you must come visit me} ;0)
thrift shop...sale...$10.00 = dro..oh...swoon...
she is not much to look at right now....
but just imagine her covered in dark grey bliss...
no?....
how about drop cloth beauty...
look at her legs...
*love* those legs...{wish someone would say that to me...sigh}
have i mentioned i'm really short...
no...
oh. now you know...ssshhh...
...around the thrifty bend...this lovely...
my little one has a bed of her very own now...
...what?....oh, no, no, i didn't buy the mattress to go with it...
that was already on hand at our house...relief...
i couldn't pass on an antique cream iron bed for $30.00 could i?
now do you understand the need for a steak dinner...celebration...
she *loves* her new bed...while she did this...
i was able to do a little of this...
they should be arriving in the shop by next week...
along with some other goods...
also, next week is going to bring a little surprise to someone...
maybe to a lucky reader... :0)
we have to celebrate the passing of january don't we?!?
spring here we come!!

Can we go thrifting together? I would fall over if I found an incredible chair like that for $10...oh the possibilities...and that bed ~ LOVE IT!!! You rock! Please, please show us what you do with that chair!
I think I will be needing to check YOUR shop next week!!

Very cool! You have an eye and wonderful luck :) I also look forward to seeing what happens with your chair! Oddly, I just bought my teen an iron bed too! Now...just need the room to put it in.
Cheers,
Ok I'm wondering where you found this thrift shop?? Do you know something I don't? 1 hour away? I can only think of the DI?? That can't be! What are you hiding? I love that bed and the chair; the potential that baby holds. It was nice seeing you the other day at the kids ball game. Can't wait to see the chairs makeover. Lee
$10?! I can not wait to see what you do with your chair!! I know it's going to be absolutely beautiful! :)
