Since starting childcare I don’t get to my favorite thrift stores very often. Â I typically work from 7am to 5pm and the stores are open during those hours so I don’t get there unless I go on Saturdays and I hate going then. Â I like my Saturdays to sew! Â I miss the thrill of the hunt but it’s been really good on my pocket book…and I like not having so much STUFF.
I did get there recently and was happy with my $2.50 find.
It’s an old vintage cross stitch piece. Â It’s not fancy at all so in my life…perfect. Â I love the color and I like that the cross stitch is kind of big.
I have plans for this to hang in the south bedroom.
In this house I am really going with minimal decorating. Â I just don’t want to spend all my time dusting and I prefer that the structure of the house and the wood work be the shining feature not a bunch a STUFF. Â This will be perfect for what I’m going for…and I love the saying…nothing cutesy…nothing trendy. Â Just something true.
Thrift stores are one of my favorite shopping spot…..
