Ahh Spring is in the air....My flowers are blooming!
Always a pleasant surprise to walk outside and see something else blooming!
I love purple and pink flowers!
Mr. Smith trimmed our blue willow bushes and I thought I would bring some of the trimmings inside. FREE!
My pickle jar that was from my folks-funny story-Mom wanted a jar of pickles when they moved into their new house (5 YEARS AGO) so Dad went to Costco and bought this jar FILLED with sliced pickles. It's just the 2 of them.....Needless to say the pickles have finally all been eaten or tossed!
My metal "S" that I bought at a flea market for $5-I actually bought 2 of them-just because!
My other pickle jar that I bought at the thrift store for $1-again there were 2 so of course I bought both of them!
My thrift store purchase while we were in Portland, Oregon visiting my brother and his family.....$2-with an older price tag of $50-FIRM! Ha, I guess someone didn't ever sell it so donated it to the thrift store!
This Sunday is our 18th Anniversary so.....we are heading to San Francisco for a few days! Going to do hit some serious thrift stores! Oh and eat some really yummy food too!
Go check out all the entries for Linda's Nifty Thrifty Tuesdays!
I love the S! I collect P's mysefl, and tend to snatch them up whenever I find them. I also love your flowers in bloom! I posted some of mine yesterday and have more scheduled for tomorrow,
ReplyDeleteGreat finds.
Wow, that frame was originally fifty dollars. No wonder it never sold. Wish I was going to San Francisco with you. We went a long time ago and I have always wanted to go back. Beautiful city.
ReplyDeleteI could never pay 50 dollars for a frame...wow. $2 sounds way better! I love old metal letters, too..that S is so neat!

Thanks for visiting my blog earlier today. I was at work, so couldn't blog until now. Love the fresh Spring flowers you have blooming. We are still waiting for the snow to melt in MN. It's quite a bleak time of year for us, so nice to see the pretty flowers in your post.
