Fun Thrift Store Finds...Something Blue

It's been awhile since I shared some fun finds with you!

Since I'm moving, I am doing more cleaning out, than buying right now!

But I have a few goodies to share with you!

My first find is four big spools of blue and white baker's twine!

It's sure not something I'd expect to find at the thrift store...$1.50 each.

There are so many ways I use baker's twine, especially for packages and gifts.

THIS GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED

**I would like to share a roll of twine with one of my U.S. followers!**
I'll also include a goodie pack of blue and white ephemera!

Just let me know in your comment that you would like a chance,
and tell me how you follow. I'll draw on Saturday, September 1st, 10 PM CST.

Be sure your email is enabled so I can reach you!
THIS GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED

I also found the sweetest little blue and white cup...25 cents.

It is now sitting on my kitchen shelves...

It is from Norway...such a delicate design!

Perfect for a little succulent...

Finally, I found this sweet vintage blue vase...$3.00.

It is 6" high and marked USA on the base.

It looks charming in our guest room.

It's always fun to treasure hunt!

Until next time...

You found some great finds, Linda, as always!! I really should spend more time in the thrift store....I tell myself I don't need anything else in my house, which keeps me out!

Blue and white has always been one my my favorite color combinations! That little vase is some kind of vintage pottery...not sure exactly which one though. I would love to win a ball of that blue and white twine - it would look so nice under a cloche! I'm not sure how I follow you on here, lol. I know I follow you on IG though, too.
