Today's Thrifting Finds

I had a little free time this afternoon and decided it would be best spent thrifting. I stayed for only 30 minutes and got some GREAT finds!!
First, this really cool aqua-teal-blue mug. I know I have lots of mugs already, but I figure one can never have too many mugs, right? I also seem to have an addiction to all things aqua-teal-blue and all things, well, mug. I know it needs some cleaning up...that's why it's in the dishwasher and not my hand at the current point in time.

Now, on to more fun, yummy, thrifty finds.

I got all of these skirts for $2 a piece! I'm especially proud of the brown tweed skirt. It still had the original price tag of $45 on it. (Please ignore the hideous brown carpet.)

This is my favorite of all the skirts. It's long and warm and green and tweed (another favorite of mine, especially in the cold, or supposedly cold, times of year). I feel like everyone's favorite kindergarten teacher in it!

I also got these great sheets and table cloths that I intend to cut into skirts when I have a sewing machine.

I think these two will make great skirts and bags.

You can't really tell in this photo, but the color is a gorgeous gold.

And here, a green table cloth with a built in border for a very cute skirt-to-be!!

Hope you enjoyed looking at my finds as much as I enjoyed finding them!!
