The BIG baby

I am feeling better now. (*cheer*) It took a little Vick's vapo inhaler, some vitamin C, lots of water & the purchase of a cool mist humidifier.

Picture 1: describes how I felt.
Now tell me why they must make a inhaler look like a tampon?? I would really like to know.
In the minutes after I purchased this I wanted to use it. (BUT I waited... because I was parked in front of a sand which shop which had people eating inside looking out of the windows.) I thought ... if I put this up to my nose I may scare them. Or Worse they may think I am inserting a tampon in my nostril.
I also realized there isn't and never will be a sexy way to use one of these.
If you REALLY need to use it.. pretend you are looking in the glove box and *sniff sniff* quickly.

Thrift Shop Buys
Baby Kewpie figurine $1

I woun't be afraid to admit I had fun making the top silly pic out of this photo.

Still in plastic vintage doll $1

Mug I purchased for myself $0.30 cents


Pink powder jar $4.50



This will be my third jewelry box like this.

I store them all in Hazel my vanity table. They are perfect for organization.

$3.50



I was thrilled to find this lamp at Salvation army for $2.00

Sure beats the look-alikes they are making nowadays in vintage style that sell for over $100


Confetti earrings $0.50 cents



*AAAAAHHHHH* Metal recipe box complete with a SEXY Lobster *pinch*




These bottom two items I purchased a few weeks or more back and I am pretty sure I forgot to show them in the blog.


Never been used Simpsons Sears curtains.

$4.00 (I think)


I love the instructions and photo.



Blue dish $5.00

(I have a thing for the pokey stuff!)


So there you have it!

This year I have plans to have a table at the flea market every couple of weeks or so. I buy stuff for myself... but alot of other times I find vintage items that are priced so low it would be a sin not to buy them and re-sell them for some spare cash. I have done a bit of re-selling on classified sites. But I hate having strange people come to my house to purchase things. So obviously a flea market setting would be a little more ideal.

~So that is one of my plans for Spring~



I also plan on loading up my Etsy shop (Which has been dormant and empty for months now *lol*) In the near future.

I am ordering Galaxie my mannequin a new wig. Because I dislike the one she came with. (Yes I know that sounds very weird.. but once I get something in my head... there is no going back.)


I really need to start selling stuff... WHY? YOU ASK?

Because GARAGE SALE SEASON is right around the corner.



p.s. The reply button has not been working for me. But I see it's working for others... SO HOPEFULLY it is fixed now.
