Treasures and Other Muses





Hi friends,

It's been a busy week; my first week of working my full schedule again. I am still lacking all of my energy but we're slowllllyyy getting there.

Today I visited with some friends and then went "junking" but to me it's treasure hunting. I found some winter boots (leather) for under $10, some black dress shoes, 3 crocheted baby blankets that I'm going to donate to the shawl ministry, a wall plaque, a flower pot (which reads "With the whisper of its petals, the depth of its roots, and the fullness of its bloom, love has touched our souls") and a metal wall hanging for my kitchen (it reads "Life is messy - wear your apron".

  1. I love your finds. The wall plaque is really cute, so is the metal wall hanging. Cute colors! and the flower pot. I guess I don't have a favorite.

    I haven't found anything good in the goodwill or thrift stores in my town for quite awhile.

    I am glad to hear you are getting your energy back even if it is slow in coming back. Hope you have a good weekend.

  2. I usually don't leave my Goodwill empty handed so that's good. I saw lots of cute things there today; I'm so easily tempted by so many things lol!!
