Frock on Friday & Recently thrifted

HELLO FROCKERS!

So this above photo of me sorta looks like I am smoking...

But I can assure you I am only blowing fluffy pieces of whatever the heck the plant is seen behind me... Why?? I dunno I felt the urge too and followed through.

(Maybe I should have just not explained anything at all)

LOL

So here is my Frock

It was thrifted last weekend. I paid about $0.60 cents for it.

The inside tag is so faded it is barely readable... but finally I made out that it said Jillian. (It sort of reminds me of a dress Edith would wear)

I have been watching episodes of (All in the family) like a crazy woman. And I am always lusting after Edith Bunkers dresses

(Now they really aren't anything extravagent or amazing... just cute house dresses)

But I still love them. This one is my favorite so far!

(Maybe because it's green and checkered)

*AHHHH it's COLD out here, the water behind me is frozen*

But this post is about the dress... so if I come down with a cold I am blaming all of you.

Now for some recent thrift finds

$0.99 Salvation army

This blanket is made out of wool yarn and its quite heavy.

Anyone know what sort of stitch it is?

My new (to me) sewing basket *SCREAAAM*

That's pretty much what I did when I saw it on the shelf at Salvation Army.

I paid $2.00 for this beauty

I have a small round sewing basket like this that I got for free from a garage sale.

It is not the most pretty and had some issues... This one is twice the size and I will be able to fit SO MUCH MORE in it.

Below are two little flocked cuties I also found the same time as everything else.

*Awwww* Red Mice

Mr. Coco (DID NOT) think they were cute... He wasn't very ecstatic I was purchasing them. So I said "Well Hon I cannot leave two little orphaned mice without a home on Christmas"

*hehehe*

$0.50 cents each

Alright see that GIANT gold tinsel ball?? It's about 2 feet across in size.

I am pretty sure it was part of a vintage Christmas Mall display or something.

I paid $1.99 for it. Then didn't know how the heck I was gonna hang it (Because a Tack totally wouldn't cut it) ... So we screwed a lovely hook in the ceiling and VOILA

MERRY BIG BALL!

I find it *ENchanting*

I purchased 2 of these electric window candles for $0.99 cents each.

I have my years where I am not excited about Christmas at all and years where I am absolutely thrilled. This year.....

I am THRILLED! So you all are just gonna have to put up with the bits of Christmas in my posts.

I hope you do not mind.

*Smile*
