Thrifting 10/22

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO SHEA YESTERDAY!
I HOPE SHE HAD A GREAT DAY!

I SPENT IT THRIFT STORE SHOPPING WITH
MEADOW (MEOW AS ERNIE CALLS HER).

A PERFECT SATURDAY!  YARD SAILING IS ALSO
A LOT OF FUN.  I WAS HOPING TO SEE SOMETHING
FOR HALLOWEEN, BUT YOU NEVER KNOW
WHAT YOU'LL FIND.

MEOW HAD STARTED OUT HER DAY PLANTING TREES
DOWNTOWN LIKE A GOOD PERSON, SO I MET HER
AT LA COCINA FOR A BLOODY MARY, LIKE A BAD PERSON.
THIS SMILEY FACE POST-IT WAS GREETING ME.
HE SAID IT WAS GOING TO BE A GOOD DAY, AND
HE WAS RIGHT.

THEIR PUMPKIN WAS LOSING COLLAGEN FAST.
MADE IT LOOK CUTE THOUGH. 

THE GARNISH WAS REALLY PRETTY BUT IT
FELL IN WHEN I TRIED TO PULL IT OUT TO
TAKE A PIC.  OH WELL!

THEN IT WAS OFF TO THE SHOPS!
HERE'S SOME STUFF I DIDN'T BUY:
THESE THREE JARS MATCH MY CONRINGWARE
SET EXACTLY.  IT WAS A CLOSE ONE BUT I DIDN'T
LOVE THE PLASTIC LIDS.

SAME PATTERN AS ABOVE, DIFFERENT STORE.
I ALREADY HAVE ONE EXACTLY LIKE THE BOTTOM ONE
WITH THE LID AND I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT
I WOULD USE THE MINI PAN THING FOR.  THERE WASN'T
A LID AND ALTHOUGH I LOVED IT I DIDN'T WANT TO PAY $4
FOR IT.  I ENDED UP FINDING TWO MORE OF THEM:

 
THESE CUP THINGYS WERE PYREX BUT I DIDN'T
LOVE THE BROWN BARK LOOK.  I PREFER THE BRIGHT
COLORS AND PATTERNS TO THIS NATURAL LOOK.

CORNINGWARE PATTERN I HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE.
I DIDN'T LOVE IT OR THE PLASTIC LIDS THOUGH.

DIDN'T REALLY LOVE THIS PATTERN EITHER.
IT WAS CLOSE THOUGH ON THIS ONE.

"PERMANA, YOUR ORDER IS UP!"


SO HERE IS WHAT I DID BUY:
GOLD BRACELET $3

GOLD ARROW HEAD NECKLACE $4
(REMINDS ME OF MR. KATE'S DECAY LINE.)

EGG CUPS $0.75 EACH
THESE WERE SUCH A SCORE!
THEY ARE SO CUTE AND EGG CUPS
ARE SO FUCKING HARD TO FIND!
THEY ARE CERAMIC, NOT PLASTIC.

 VINTAGE CORNINGWARE!  $5
THAT IS SUCH A FANTASTIC PATTERN!
I AM FULLY IN LOVE WITH THIS PIECE!



THIS PYREX CONTAINER IS AMAZING!
 AND IT MATCHES MY BOWL!  $5

 ERNIE NEEDED A LARGE FRAME FOR A PROJECT
 HE IS WORKING ON.  HE ASKED ME TO LOOK OUT
FOR HIM AND I FOUND THIS AMAZING FRAME,
BUT INSIDE WAS THIS WEIRD BLACK VELVET
ZOMBIE JESUS.  EVERYONE IN THE STORE KEPT
COMING UP TO ME TELLING ME WHAT A GREAT FIND
IT WAS.  THE FRAME IS REALLY AWESOME.  $15

IT WAS OVERALL A VERY SUCCESSFUL THRIFTING
DAY!  I WAS ALSO ABLE TO FIND A HALLOWEEN
COSTUME BUT YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT TO SEE
THAT LATER.  NO SPOILERS HERE.
