thrifted {treasures}

January 8, 2011

today i thrifted to my little heart’s content. i haven’t done that in far too long!

3 thrift stores, many finds. Finds for crafting things for my Esty store, some for personal decor, some for chase, some for momma. here are some of my thrifted {treasures};

finds for crafting to sell on my Etsy store. each piece above price range from .25 – .50

bought to use the frames and re-design them for my store and for personal decor! thrifted price, from .50 – $2

i am a lover of lace, if you haven’t yet noticed :) lace, .25 vintage fabric, .50

wreaths for store and one personal decor, $1 total

thrifted pier 1 mugs to design and sell. thrifted price, $1.50

it is so so so so tempting for me to want to keep these beautiful treasures, but i bought them with the intention of selling them. thrifted price, $1.25 total!!

this one is for myself, it’s going to be transformed into a cute little recipe box. a DIY post will come later when i finish this.

a doily that reminded me of my sweet little e. had to have it and will someday soon create something beautiful with it.

for chasey-boy, a vintage dinosaur (.25) and a vintage ninja sweater ($1)

these i just had to have, for myself and probably borrowed by my lovely sisters ;) paid a whopping $1.50 for them!

but perhaps my favourite find of the day;

(please graciously ignore the outfit which consists of ted’s sleeping shorts ;))

i have {finally} found a vintage suitcase (with extra travel bag inside) that i adore. annnnd it’s {teal} which i’m sure by now you’ve notived it’s in the top 5 of jami davis’s favourite colours!

i hope you’re inspired to thrift! spend the time searching  and you will find treasures!

blog post coming soon with a little DIY inspirational book!
