Hi Friends,
I stopped by the local thrift store and found a few treasures I'm excited to show off!
I saw a vintage sewing machine cabinet very plain with a sewing machine they wanted $150.00 and it didn't work and the cabinet wasn't even pretty. I'm going to give it a couple of weeks or so and go back and give an offer I think.

Local Budget Center Thrift Store
First treasure I found is the terra cotta pots. I've been collecting terra cotta pot for my herb garden. When ever I see one reasonably priced I pick it up. The two pots I found today, were $1.00 for the larger and $.50 for the smaller pot. I'll be using these two terra cotta pot for herbs in the garden.
As I walked in the door of the thrift store, there was a basket filled with cookies cutters priced from $1.50 to $2.75.
I was over the moon when I found these cookie cutter of the Peanuts characters.
I was charged a total of $6.00 for all 13 cookie cutters.
I have a large jar above the kitchen cabinets that houses my collection of red Tupperware cookie cutters and HRM cookies cutters.
My Grandma had aluminum cookie cutter with the designs to make a gingerbread house I saw the gingerbread man cookie cutter, it brought back great memories cooking with my Grandma.
I have a large aluminum strainer above the kitchen cabinets where I store all of my aluminum cookie cutters, so I just added the new cookie cutter to the strainer. Also I placed the white mug -$.50- as well on the shelf.

I have incorporated the little cobalt blue bottle -$1.00- into a Patriotic vignette for Memorial day vignette
The sewing notions and embroidery hoop - all at $.25 each - hoop I placed in my sewing room with some other related sewing items.
The bag of beads and brass bells, I'll stash them with my craft supplies for later use.
Vintage Thrift Store
Of course I had to stop by the local Vintage/Thrift Store to see what was new
I'm working on a laundry vignette and for $1.00, this blue compact clothes line will be a great addition to my laundry room when I get it done you'll be the first to have a look.

I was looking through a box at the store that has a great selection of bottle openers and I found a wooden handle cork screw - $3.00. I have a small collection of bottle openers, I'll be adding to my barware collection
and possibly the two handle item was - cigar cutter? nut cutter? pickle cutter? I spent a $1.00. Has anyone have one of these? What is it used for?
*****
The Westcott wooden ruler that I found for $0.50. I incorporated the ruler on a shelf in my computer area with other vintage school related treasures.

The cute little aluminum sauce pan - $1.00, I picked up was incorporated with other vintage kitchen treasures above the kitchen cabinets.
This was a great haul and the items were not overly priced I don't think. I hope I gave you some inspiration on how to add some of your collected treasure and incorporate them into your every day décor.
My God Bless
You and Your Family through these trouble times.
