Swift Thrift

There have been several thrifting adventures in recent weeks. One of the things on my list was a devilled egg plate. We’d come across a few, but they were all pretty plain. I told Dave I didn’t want just any old devilled egg plate… I wanted one with some personality. He asked me how a plate could have personality, I told him I’d know it when I saw it. And suddenly I did…

If that isn’t personality, I don’t know what is!

The next item wasn’t exactly on my list. But on our many adventures, I seen single fish plates. I’m sure you know the type… clear glass, shaped like a fish?

While neat, I’ve always passed up on them, because I thought… what would I do with one fish plate? But on our last adventure, I came across a stack of them… for just $7!

In the end, there were nine plates total over three different styles/sizes. I told Dave the next time we have company over and food is served… we are eating off fish plates! And right after finding them at one thrift shop, I found two of these fish bowls at the next..

How fun is that.

Speaking of fun….

I couldn’t resist this Hello Kitty purse! It’s made of silicone and is surprisingly roomy. I immediately switched it out and used it as my purse for the rest of the day. I got about 10 compliments on it throughout the rest of the day. Dave was laughing about that.

And last… this is just a tiny one…

As soon as I saw this wee chicken pin cushion… I just couldn’t leave it behind. I hope this isn’t the beginning of a pin cushion collection….
