Goodwill Haul

G took me to Goodwill today to look for a dresser and a jigsaw puzzle.  We didn't find a dresser but I did manage to find 11 spools of ribbon and 1 of lace that will be awesome for jewelry making and were 1 dollar each for a bag of 3 or 4, a shower caddy which I really need since my roommates take up all the shower space with their stuff and I'm left carrying my stuff into the bathroom with me every time I shower then back to my room when I'm done, and two jigsaw puzzles that may or may not have all the pieces still, all for $10.  I also found a second purse for 13 bucks.  I needed another one for when it rains so my stuff won't get soaked like it would in the super cute fabric one.  This one is a sort of mustard yellow color only with a little more brown in it than yellow and in really good shape, with lots of pockets and plenty of room for all of my stuff.  There was also some really weird stuff at Goodwill.  One thing that I would have definitely purchased and then mailed to thrift store pen pal Woody if I had more money, was what I can only assume was a torch holder.  It was designed to be mounted on a wall and had a bowl on the bottom part to place a torch in then a chain higher up with a handcuff type support to hold the torch.  It was pretty cool looking to be honest, but I don't live in a castle, so it might be a bit extravagant.

  1. Hope you find a dresser! Check on Craigslist, you should be able to get a good deal on there.
