Happy Wednesday, Friends! A few months ago, while shopping for a friend who wanted to add some cozy touches to her living room apartment, I came across this fun faux chalkboard at Pier One. I was inspired to create my own version and I knew I could beat their $50 price tag!
Greetings Friends! One of the best things about blogging are the kindred spirits I've met along the way. I am reminded of Proverbs 18:24....There is a friend that sticks closer than a brother. Yesterday I was delighted to find this sweet package in my mailbox from a sister blogger.
Thank God it's thrifty Friday, Friends! Today I am featuring newly listed retro finds. Let's start with this fabulous set of Town & Country Pyrex bowls from the 60s. The large bowl is a generous 4 quarts and the smaller, 1.5 quarts. Such a great pattern!

I adore decorating and gardening but as a single parent have always needed to do both on a budget. Thrifting-- my all inclusive verb for shopping resale shops, thrift stores, estate and yard sales is not just my hobby but rather a lifestyle. It supports my habit of collecting Vintage dishes and Pyrex and over the years has proven invaluable for decorating and re-decorating. I am passionate about transforming and repurposing cast away furniture and love furnishing my home with pieces that have their own history. It has saved me more pennies than I can count and is the perfect solution to almost any dilemma. Your child comes home from school and informs you that he must dress like his favorite super hero TOMORROW? Your daughter can only wear modest knee length skirts to respect the local culture on her upcoming mission trip? Volunteer to host the next ladies event but then realize you don't own enough matching glasses? The answer to these questions and so many more: THRIFTING! Last, but certainly not least--thrifting is all about re-cycling, re-imagining and re-creating; the best way to shop green!
