Happy Thrifty Day

After even more snow, had a great outing to the thrift store today. I had some major cabin fever going. Not only did it get me out of the house, it turned out to be an awesome thrifty trip - got tons of stuff for only $27.

All this fabric was about $12- great mix of vintage sheets, denim a tablecloth and yardage. Obviously, a crafter with good taste was thinning out their stash. The store had almost a whole row of fabric to browse (very unusual). I didn't pay more than $2 for any of these, and most are at least a yard - Score!:

Probably my fav. fabric find was this Ikea hearts duvet cover. I've always loved this print, but never wanted to pay full price for it in the store. I can't wait to wash it and find something to do with it. I'm thinking a bag or two - something I can look at alot.

This last thing may turn out to be a total bust, but for $5, it was worth trying out this Ronco pasta machine. It appears to have all the parts, which I am in the process of bleaching and washing. It will be nice if it works. If not, I've only wasted what I'd spend on a cup of Starbucks.

I'll report back on its performance. In the meantime, keep fingers crossed that Maryland doesn't get more snow. After 3 + feet in a week, this state just can't take anymore. People are going to start getting crazy!
