My favorite find of January was this light up globe (vintage 1982 – is that really vintage?!?)
It works great, but it does have some damage here on Africa and also on the top. I think I can patch it up with some tissue paper and Mod Podge. If not I am making it into a light up Death Star(scroll down).One of our local thrift stores last day of business was today and they we selling most of their clothing for 25¢. I managed to only spend $4.00, but it took a lot of restraint. This pair of gray cords and these camouflage cargo shorts looked perfect to recon into some tote bags.
I was really excited to find this 100% cotton velveteen jacket in my size, now I need some fun accessories.
Velveteen is apparently difficult to photograph, it is not nearly this bright in person. I won't bore you with all the t-shirts I brought home.And finally some treasures that I found cleaning in the basement. My vintage (from the 80’s again) rainbow unicorn bandanna, my witch boot cookie jar, and my Victorian boot vase. I actually have a fairly large collection of shoe figurines, but really no where to display them.
What is your fabulous find of January?, I’d love to hear about it.Have a super crafty weekend!

Hey Korinne! Which thrift store closed?! Please tell me it wasn't the Family Thrift on 18th/O!
Kelly, it was the Arc at 27th and O. Are you coming to NE to do some thrifting?
