Thrifty Thursday


If I have an hour to spare I love to go to antique stores.  Not as thrifty as Goodwill, but so much fun!

Doesn't this make you think of Easter dinner?


Salt and pepper shakers are a staple at any antique store.  I never got into them... but they are cute.
Now we are talking... I could look at old children's books and toys for hours.

Even better... old game pieces.  I found some darling turquoise letters.  Here is how I put them to use...



Which one do you like best?  Last of all my favorite find of the day, a child's vintage umbrella!
