A Great Find!

Hello!

Guess what I found a couple of weeks ago while thrifting?


Do you know what it is?


It's a sewing box! I saw it and snatched it up. It was love at first sight!  :)  Then I turned it over and it was only $5.97! AND I got it for 50% OFF of that!!! What a great deal!  :)


I took it home, cleaned it up and filled it with my perle cotton stitching threads.  :)


It has lots of knicks and scratches . . . but I don't care. I love it anyway!  :)


That just means that it's been used and loved! It has character and now it's all mine!  :)

Until next time . . .

Oh my goodness! I would have squealed...and I'm not a squealer. What a deal! If I had found that, it would have been $100. Your threads look so pretty in it! Enjoy!
