Practicing for what,
you ask?
Why for
I Love Thrifting Day
on Saturday July 7th!!
I am thrilled to find out
that I will get to meet one of my blogging besties,
Elaine from
Creating Wonderful Spaces
Squee!
I am so excited!
Elaine is a fellow tablescaper
and, from I have seen,
she can sniff out some wonderful thrift finds
for my her tables!
So, since I hadn't been out thrifting in a few
weeks, I needed to be sure my own
skills were still sharp!
Sure, I only hit two stores and a garage sale
but I found plenty!
My first score were these goblets
Four of them in perfect condition.
Marked at $2.99 each.
But, blue tags were 50% off so I paid $1.50 each!
The rest of my finds
were something different for me.
And, I admit, I went
a tad crazy!
I have seen some of the gals
using scarves on their tablescapes. Well there were row upon row
of scarves at this store.
Most were 50% off!

Roses! $3.99
Vibrant tulips! $1.50
Marigolds! $1.50
Sensing a theme here?
You know me and my flowers LOL!
This one is is even brighter in real life. $2.99
I love the pattern on this one. And we are
in Denver Broncos country here
so orange & blue will be perfect this Fall!
$3.99
How sweet will this be on a country breakfast table?
$2.99
I was finally able to drag myself away
from all of the scarves and made my way
back to the linen section of the store.
Where I found this fabric remnant.
$1.00!!! I already have plans for this piece!
Do you know what is coming up soon?
The 4th of July!
Another remnant. Red, White & Blue!
$3.50
Guess what this is. Guess!
A twin sheet for $1.50!
I texted Mr. B and he looked online for me
and twin sheets will fit my dining table perfectly!
I'll be checking out sheets more often!
My cart was FULL
so I checked out and was headed home
when I drove by a garage sale
and saw this hanging, ironically, from the garage door.
Know what it is?
It's a closet shoe holder!
I totally needed another one for my napkin storage!
$3.00!
When I got home Mr. B was ready for lunch.
So, we went to our favorite Mexican restaurant.
After we were done eating he stated he wanted to stop by Sears.
Normally when he wants to go shop for tools
I find a way to get out of going
but I am so happy I decided to tag along!
Look what was on clearance!
I love the cross stitch pattern!
A set of four NEW dishes for about $2.00 each!
By the time we made it home

But, I needed to be sure
I was in tip top shape!
I feel pretty confident that my mad skills
are sharp and
I can hit I Love Thrifting day
as a lean, mean thrifting machine!
