I just wanted to tell you about some of the latest dishes I found. Dishes are a weakness of mine! :) I need to be extra careful when I go thrifting because there are SO many for great prices!
The white flower bowl and pink fiesta bowl came from Goodwill. I would say that Goodwill is the BEST place to find unique dishes. Because I collect fiesta ware I check the clearance section at Macy's whenever I'm there. I found the green bowl half-off there AND I used a coupon to get it even cheaper!
This is my flower bowl in better detail. Priced $0.50! I know, right?! :) I find it handy to keep my loose bobby pins in it. Cute and purposeful!
These blue and white tea cups and saucers came from my friend Katie. I love the intricate design! Thanks Katie! :)

i LOVE flea markets
Yep...I recently discovered that flea markets are one of my very favorite things! Yesterday I went to the Hartville Marketplace with my aunt and cousins. I've been there before, but this was the first time I browsed through the flea market outside the marketplace. At first I found myself overwhelmed at all the vendors. I felt as if I was at a HUGE garage sale! Despite feeling overwhelmed I was able to find some pretty cool things! :)
I came across these bottle caps and necklace at the same vendor and I paid $2 altogether. A steal? I think so!
I saved the favorite for last. When I saw these antique keys, I became so excited! The woman selling them had a pile of a bunch of old keys. She probably thought I was crazy when I spent such a long time carefully selecting my new found treasures! :) The older woman gave me a deal because I bought four. She sold them to me for $4. {{If you go to the flea market, you'll have to visit her. She's such a sweet woman and she also sells her homemade candy--which is delicious!}} Lately I've been adoring key necklaces and now I can put together one of my own! I wonder what else I can do with these keys? Any ideas???
