Thirft Store Gold!!!!

It has been a while since we have scored thrift store gold like this.

Behold the golden unicorn!!!

It is an awesome sight.

We just wish that we could have found its matching golden dolphin counterpart and have a perfect set.

(there may be a dual over who gets the put this picture in their office)

Another Thrift Store Score

Hubby wins the prize this week for thrift store gold. He found this CD. It is Mozart done by the Bulgarian Symphony Orchestra with traditional Egyptian music interspersed. There is some singing in Arabic as well on several of the tracks. The effect is very interesting. Soothing sounds of Mozart with a "what the heck is this" component. Well done!

Thrift Store Treasure

I went over to my local neighbourhood thrift store this weekend and scored some cool stuff. The best of the lot was this beauty!!

It's a hand quilted little bag from vintage fabrics. It's going to be perfect for toting my knitting in the car. I like to knit during the commute to work. (I'm not driving, Hubby is, just for the record.)

I can't believe someone would give this away. Their loss, my gain. I would like to assure whoever put the time and effort into making this that I appreciate their effort.

Both sides are different patchwork patterns and the fabrics are so cool. If I was going to take a guess, early seventies. The pictures don't do justice.

Did I mention I love thrift stores! My perfect little bag was a whole $2.
