Sun was shining yesterday and I was without a car. No biggie we live off Mainstreet so Z and I headed out. First to a little shop that is going out of business. She has beads and they were all 40% off. I picked up a tube of very old orange hearts in a size 4 maybe? The equivilant to several hanks of Czech seed in a wild yellow green color, almost chartreuse, if it came in a pastel. And a few apple green turquoise bits to make some earrings, just 'cuz. 
After that stop, it was down Mainstreet to the thrift store, yup, I got one with in walking distance! It's run by Lutheran church folk and it's great because all the prices are really good. And they have fabric! It's downstairs so I had to Z out of the stroller, she thought that was wonderful, let's just say I got my cardio. I didn't really set out to do a theme but obviously I was in a spring state of mind and the thrift gods and goddesses were smiling. Here's the turquoise set up... 
The seersucker is a lovely shade of white and turquoise and there was 1 1/2 yards of it. The napkins are ugly but in a cool way and those glass things are from old electricity poles, can't remember their actual name. They will make great garden art.
And now the celery set up, please don't hate me...
The cabbage roses in the back are on a cotton shower curatin, the yellow is 2 1/2 yards of yellow dotted swiss and the soft green are 4 linen luncheon napkins. The mugs are a lovely crazed glaze of green with a hint of cobalt. I really just got them for their pattern. At .50 each, I splurged. I even messed with the image and made something I could try quilting ala Digital Gran. . 
So the grand total at the thrift store was $12.00.
This will be it for thrift reporting for now. I have jumped the on band wagon for "Use What I Have" for the month of April. It all started with a little post here. It makes so much sense. I shall be using my stash to create, wanna join me?
