After reading my sister in laws blog about heading to the thrift store for accessories, I figured I should give it a shot myself. I have to admit, the thought of wearing or buying someone elses stuff kinda skeeves me out! But I figured what the heck... time to step outside of my little box!
I figured I'd start by looking for a doily, seeing as how Natasha made a wonderful shirt out of them. I ended up in the table cloth section where this bright pink color caught my eye! I started laughing to myself when I realized that it was actually a Pashmina scarf... not a table cloth! The best thing about it... the tags were still on it, so that means that nobody has probably wore the thing! Score #1. Secondly I checked out the jewelery section (very limited) but I did find this necklace out of shells, which I decided would make a great summer bracelt! Just wrap the thing around 4 times, and voila! I found a brooch while I was going to pay for all 2 of my finds and figured it fit in with the shell theme, so I bought it and attatched it to the outside of the bracelet! I think they go together fairly well! So in total I spent $3.50, for 3 items that I will most likely get a lot of use out of! I think someone just created a monster, because I can't wait to go thrifting again!!
