Charity shop bargains

I thought I would share this with you.

I love the little picture with the message

on it which I found in the local Oxfam

shop for 50p. The green candle holder

was another recent charity shop purchase,

it cost all of £2.50, another bargain.

I just swooped on it as soon as I spotted it.

I don't know about you fellow thrifters

but I always get a real buzz when I see

something that appeals to my particular

taste. I'm sure I buy the stuff that no one else

gives a second glance. Ah well, all the more
lovely things for me to buy. The pink tray

was plain brown until quite recently, so I gave it

"The Treatment". Paint, sandpaper and a coat

or three of glitter, naturally. The sweet little candles

have been around for years and are far too pretty to

light, they even have little diamantes set into them,

another of my favourite things. I am now going to

enjoy a lovely glass of G&T with ice and a slice.

Cheers!
