The Thrift Store

 Here is a shot of Jazz. But my story is about what is on the wall over her.


A few weeks ago, we were at a Christmas thrift store. As we were at the door leaving, a lady came in with a large box to donate. On the very top was this hanging display shelving. I grabbed it out of the box, and they said I could have it for $10.00. The lady said it belonged to her sister-in-law and it is real wood. Quite a deal! It is one of my more exciting thrift buys.


The think is, the little openings are so tiny that it is hard to find anything small enough to fit in it! I did find the two snow globes at Dollar General.

You were in the right place at just the right time. This is a very neat piece and what a wonderful blessing for you to be able to get it. The price was another bonus.

The display house is so cute, and I think it was meant for you, as the lady was walking in with it right when you were leaving. And I have that little snow globe from Dollar General. It's one of my favorite of all my globes. The quote is special, and really got to me, as I love old treasures. I'm glad you found something to take home at the thrift store, Ginny. It's so fun to browse through antique stores and thrift stores. Jazz' blue sweater is so pretty.
