Mish Mash Monday

Happy Monday and welcome to MMM!  I hope you had a terrific weekend!

I was soooo excited and happy to meet two of my good friends on Friday for lunch.  It's been two years since seeing one and three years since seeing the other.  One of them has a 6 week old baby girl I got to meet but she had the nerve to sleep through the whole lunch!!!  I guess that means we'll have to get together again!

Saturday was perfect for the first day of spring.  My daughter, Shylee and I took a day trip to Lancaster County, PA and hit the antique mall and Amish shops.  I got some really great deals on these vintage goodies!

A lace dress for $5 that I got for the lace!

A skirt with jewel toned buttons for $3.  I'll be turning it into something else...stay tuned!!
 

Fabric scraps that I need like I need another hole in my head, but they're pink and were only $1 !! 

And a milk glass compote that has nothing to do with sewing, fabric, lace or crafting...it fills an empty spot on my buffet!

I know it's not much today, but that's all I've got!  Thanks again to Audrey at Audrey's Country Crafts for sponsoring MMM! 

Have you found any great bargains lately?

  5. Hi Annette, So sorry it's been a while since I've visited. And thank you so much for all your loving comments.
    Don't you just love Lancaster? Great shopping there. I can never pass up lace and pink either. You'll make something beautiful with them I'm sure. Show pictures when you do.

  6. I have a (some say) bizarre love of the Amish. I used to pretend my Barbies were Amish. OK, maybe that is a bit odd! But I am so jealous right now of your day trip!!!

  10. What a great haul. I am jealous, I haven't been antiquing for so long. I ran out of room and I can't go just to look :( No willpower where that is concerned (He! He!)

    Hope you are having a great evening, T.

  11. A great weekend and good bargain shopping to boot! What fun. I couldn't have passed up the pink fabric either. Maybe its the year of pink?
