Fri Oct 08 2004 - Second Hand Rose
Second Hand Rose

My dear friend C. took me to her favorite second hand store in town today.

We were there for 2 and a half hours.

We amassed a shopping cart overflowing with things to try on and this is what made the cut......

1 mohair cardigan cream colored

4 warm winter pullover sweaters

2 skirts ... one flannel, one denim

2 dresses

1 cardigan, gray knit

1 sage green jumper (not a sweater my Aussie friends, a sleeveless dress)

2 lightweight knit tops

I also found two stoneware mugs, a Pfaltzgraff cream pitcher in the tea rose pattern and a lovely small hand painted stoneware mug with purple iris painted on it.

I spent a total of 41 dollars! Am I lucky or what?

I feel so blessed!

Phoebe took one look at my pile of "new" clothes and decided to claim them as her own. She took a short nap on the mohair sweater, but woke up in time for her picture to be taken.

WHERE is this store???

I'm in the market.

Phoebe is adorable. Banshee likes to claim my clothes, too. Is it a cat thing?

But, of course, he's shedding and he particularly likes my dark colored clothes.

I found a lovely surprise on my doorstep this afteroon. Sorry I wasn't here.

Shalom

Phoebe is going to be a spoiled little bratlette (not that there are any other kind!!!)

I love to go to the second hand stores in Champaign/Urbana. All those college kids letting good clothing get away is a travesty. I do my part to give the discarded items a good home, lol.

Glad you enjoyed yourself. Keep up the good work ;)

So ten minutes isn't long enough to find good things at the second hand store eh? Maybe THAT's my problem....

I think Phoebe has her own fan club now...
