monday = thrifted

I had a nice weekend, hope you did too!

I went to several estate & rummage sales over the weekend & had very good luck:

I’m all ready to start a new embroidery project this evening so I’m off...

    oh my goodness yes! You did well! I've been searching for embroidery hoops Lately but they're always ugly plastic ones if I find any. I think those wooden 'mushrooms' are just begging to be painted up.

    Wow - they were good finds! I have a garden gnome that apparently is quite rare, and as his fishing rod is missing he looks like he's playing air guitar!

    We had that exact Squirrel ornament growing up. My mother bought it for my brother in about 1971.
