thrifting for supplies.. success!

on a whim i stopped into a local hospice which i've never had to much luck with finding anything in.. 

but i gave it another shot and this time... it was a success!

this is what i purchased

instyle magazine (the color issue!)

huge spool of gold sheer "ribbon"

a dictionary 

a stack of lined note pad pages

tulle and white beaded embellishments 

all... for $2!!

these are fun finds.. and has given me some extra hope for that little thrift store yet..

it just takes a little time and patience
