My kids have gotten the idea of how fun it is to go with me to thrift shops. They always get $1. to spend. And thrift toys are really inexpensive! My oldest has been looking for slot cars. My seven year old will usually buy something carved from wood. My girl will always buy a stuffed animal! They crack me up.

But I have the most fun of all! I buy fabric (and other stuff too!). On Saturday I visited my favorite junk shop. I haven't been there all summer. But on Saturday, I totally scored with two chenille blankets, $15. for both. One is for my girl's bed, and the other is for me to cut up!

My storage has been getting really full. So I have started to destash and listing a few of my fabrics on my etsy shop. Just three pieces of fat quarters so far. I think I will be sharing some of my chenille soon too!

Where are you favorite thrift stores/junk shops???
I love that pitcher. I so want to go to that pottery place in Lincoln and check them out. The only thing is, I can never decide what color to get in a store like that. Which is the great thing about thrift shops. There's usually only one of anything, and it's always a treasure.
