Lately I have gotten into the habit of stopping by the goodwill store when I'm near it. I've had this habit now for a few months and can't imagine why I haven't done it sooner. I have always been one to hit the garage sales and such but had never been to the goodwill store. So I almost always find something I want. I love finding unique things that you don't see everyday.
I bought the girls tons of cute t-shirts there over the summer. Things I can alter or repurpose are one thing I have so much fun doing. So this frame here was ugly but I liked the color of the edges..... so I did this to it. Fun huh? I paid $1.49 for it. The funny thing is this is the 2nd one I bought at a different time they were just alike. I'll be fixing it up with a whole different look.
This brown glass jar, well I just liked it, haven't found the perfect thing to go inside yet but I will. The dishes and jar are perfect for my scrapbook table for buttons and what nots.
These skirts they are size 28. I'm so not going to try and wear them someday, but I do have something super fun planned with all the fabric. They were $2.99 each. This hand knitted scarf 0.99. This last trip I also found a blue Nike sweatshirt for Kylie $2.99.
Anyway it's always so fun to drop in, you just never know what you might find, there are always treasures. It's one way to reuse things that others have discarded that still have so much use left in them.

I love your post...we have a booth at our local flea market...we keep antiques in it...the boys and I go to that store and look around once or twice a week...
I'd rather have something old than something new...you can always fix something up the way you like it!!!
So I totally agree with the whole goodwill store shopping...there are always hidden treasures!!!!!!
I LOVE the goodwill too! It is so much fun, I was there about a month ago and found New jeans, Jacket, hubby a new shirt and a wooden shelf I've painted up and put into my kitchen for cookbooks...all for $15.00! Whoohoo!
Ooo...I can't wait to see what you do with those GINORMOUS skirts!
We're a happy little Goodwill family, aren't we :) Speaking of, I'm ready for a trip. When can we go?
