This weeks been a good week thrifting. I found a picnic basket lined with the red checkered print and it was a complete set still. GW for $9.00!!! My niece is graduating from H.S. next month and she told me while we were out thrifting last year that she'd love one. So I've been on the lookout and wasn't finding them with the stuff still inside. Well I about jumped for joy when I opened this one up. It's going to make a great graduation gift. Unconventional, but I know she'll love it!
I also found a Pyrex bowl set for $10.00. It's one of the released they've done the last few years of reproduction prints. This is a yellow flower/butterfly print that was popular in the 70's and 80's. My mother in law loves butterflies so I bought it for her for Mother's Day. The pieces have never been used and all three have their lids and it comes in the cutest box ever.
Today I also bought 2 gifts for Christmas. I was at a craft show and bought two scarfs that can be worn 3 different ways. They were really cool and something I link the girls will love.
And Rightfully soMinta......and that's why I'm her favorite Aunt... lol
