Thanks for the comment. The bunnykins mugs are so cute, I might gift them when babies are born with something hand knitted. Maybe. I have an idea for your tea light chandelier thingy. I work in a store that has a tea light chandelier with old spoons and forks hanging off of it. It gets lots of admirers, but is pricey. You could thrift some cheap silverware and somehow (don't know how) drill holes and hang with wire. It would be cute!KarenBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11354372312817808972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373492091382931118.post-45792946560600597142009-02-16T18:39:00.000-08:002009-02-16T18:39:00.000-08:00From one queen to another: Love the pink, love the...From one queen to another: Love the pink, love the chair! It's perfect slightly distressed, as is.

Trying to get better about that.<BR/><BR/>I live vicariously through you on the yard sales. I'm a thrift store shopper, but just don't seem to find the time for yard sales and when I do try to go to some can't find any good ones. So I'll continue my thrift store shopping where I do have decent luck and enjoy your yard sale finds and stories.<BR/><BR/>Love the rocker. It looks pretty old from the way the seat is made, though I'm not an expert. As for the hanging votive holder, you could make it more like a wind chime with hanging beads or something. It's pretty like it is.<BR/><BR/>Jilljet1960https://www.blogger.com/profile/15745911621562105192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373492091382931118.post-77653125578107257892009-02-05T09:29:00.000-08:002009-02-05T09:29:00.000-08:00LOVE that rocking chair.

Some just want to charge retail prices and be angry when you try to counter-offer. There's always the next sale, right? :)Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14137753848113250683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373492091382931118.post-54670952299003248602009-02-02T07:37:00.000-08:002009-02-02T07:37:00.000-08:00I see that I am not the only thrift store junkie i...I see that I am not the only thrift store junkie in blogland;)<BR/>We have no garage sales around here, too cold and the wet snow doesn't help.
