Thrift Thursday: You Can't Always Get What You Want


Thanks for being supportive about my tantrum. You truly are beautiful and perfect.. And if you aren't happy right now..I bet you get there soon. I am better. I had to take a 24 hour blog break.
I went to bed early. I cleaned out my craft cave.. But now it's full and I still have 3 table tops of craft crap to re-insert. Oy. Too Much of a Good Thing. It is a good problem to have.

But Hey let's talk about the fact that I went to the thrift store for zippers this week and I found 7 of them. Item specific thrift? Yes, Virginia.. It can Happen for you.

Even when you are all whiney... the universe can provide.

Oh and I got this cute vintage sewing basket too. I think I will reinforce, clean, repair and outfit it with all manner of handmade and vintage-y notions and add it to my Etsy store. Maybe by Monday.

edit: make that next Monday!

We all have times when we need to let out our frustrations--and then suddenly things seem so much more manageable after that.

Great find--the basket will make a lovely sewing tool.

I love it when I thrift with something specific and actually get lucky enough to find it!
