I think I want to go thrift-store-ing. And garage-sale-ing. . .
Just so I can see all the lovely things that other people don't want anymore,
and I can take them home and love them.

I think I want to find red shoes..

I went thrift storing a while ago and bought what I thought was a blue and white polka dotted dress. It is very ugly and old, but it made me smile. Plus it came with a cool green belt. I bought it with the intention of altering it and maybe changing what it looked like entirely.
Because I intended to alter it, I didn't bother trying it on first. When I got home, I put it on and-lo and behold! The bottom of the "skirt" was actually a pair of shorts! It was a polka dotted jumpsuit! Oh the joy and delight!
Since then, I fixed it and made it into a skirt, but I laughed about it for awhile.
Thrift stores are wonderful. I also bought a book of pretty pictures of Melbourne, Australia. Just because.
In conclusion, if you go thrift storing or garage sale-in, take me with you, please.
