half off day at Goodwill

16 years ago

I knew I wouldn't be able to resist going. LOL.

And am very glad I did. For awhile I've wanted one of those small pitcher 'n bowl sets (always reminds me of the large ones from my grandmothers' day). Well I found the PRETTIEST one I could have ever hoped for. I just love it.

And I couldn't resist the two pretty wine goblets.

Plus I found a lovely silk arrangement of pink roses in great condition. And a delightful little girl fairy, who's dress is actually lavender in spite of my photo She will be for my 5 yr old DGD's dresser. She's loves lavender and fairies.

Then I found two twig wreaths to decorate. Both small ones. I REALLY like the gold one, as it stands on a table and I haven't seen one like it before. Oh, the heart 'n berry twig wreath came from Home Goods right after Valentines. I am going to decorate it for Easter and Spring now.

Lastly, found these cute Easter bunny decorations. The little white one with the egg is a Hare...see the long ears! That's unusual to find, and Hares are my favorites.

Excuse the glare on the glass behind the egg in the frame.

My memory fails me, but who has the neat Cottage looking pieces (the little houses that the roofs lift off to hold stuff?). They had 14 different pieces of this!! Soooo pretty. At half off, they were now $5 each. I was tempted to come home with one or two myself but NO place for something like that in my kitchen. Dang. I sure wish you'd been there to see, or buy, tho.

hugs, Karen

Wow, another successful shopping day. How neat that they have a half price day on all their items too! Love the fat little bunny, and the little fairy is just so sweet. Glad you found the pretty pitcher and bowl, know you will enjoy it. I think the pink roses make it official--you are now a "pinky" too! LOL

Neat stuff, and I really like the goblets and that free-standing wreath! What a clever implementation.

The goblet with the multi-colored glass beaded stem is so unusual...

Karen, I love your pitcher and bowl. I made several years ago in ceramics. Nice stemware and roses and the little fairy is adorable. The valentine wreath is pretty and I'm sure you'll have fun decorating the others.

Is this little Spud hiding behind the candle holder? Maybe you and Kathleen need to watch those kids closer! Your other bunny and the pictures are pretty neat.

OK, this is enough to make me want to come visit and go shopping with you!! I have a couple of friends who are heading your way for a few days of EMT training who wanted me to come along but oh no, I have to work.LOL

So happy that you found so many neat things at the right price. I hope whoever has the Cottage looking pieces will share with us. They sound pretty neat.

Karen, it looks like you might be "tempting" Stud--errr I mean Spud with that pretty girl bunny! He's been such a good boy since his rehab too. Bet he can hardly wait for Kathleen to pull him out of that confining box again this year! I've often thought that surely I have a pretty bunny around here for him too--but never long enough to go find one and take her pic! LOL You are too funny! Love it!

Somehow I knew you'd find some goodies and you didn't disappoint! :-D

The pitcher and bowl is my fav, I wouldn't have been able to resist that either - it will be lovely in a vignette. Those bunnies (and hares) really do multiply, don't they! LOL
