From The Thrift Shop

I was heading for Lincoln this morning (about half an hour drive) for some things I thought I wouldn't find here in Seward. Turns out everything I needed was in Seward, so I celebrated by visiting the local thrift shop. Some of the things I purchased - starting at the top left: 7 issues of "Pack-o-Fun" magazine. "The only scrap-craft magazine. They are all dated 1968 and have some great projects, most involving yarn balls. Perhaps I'll share some with you soon! Next - a game called "Jack Straws". Pick up sticks, but the sticks are things like ladders, axes, shovels, etc. Fun for collaging with, eh? Or, maybe a rousing game of Jack Straws is in order. Next: 3 tiny Chinese Tea tins. I'll use them for gift boxes for Asian inspired necklaces. Next: Not a clue. Looks like a divers helmet for the guy that made the wrong wish and asked for a little head. Next: The cutest little frog planter. Perhaps I'll fill him with jelly beans. And last, putting the little head to good use. That headless mannequin has been freaking me out for a while. This is so much better. I should probably cut back on the caffeine. I've been blogging my head off.
