Thrifty Thursday

I love thrifting so this Thursday I have decided to join Thrifty Thursday and show you what goodies I found yesterday. Yes...I know my last post is on my found trinkets but I left out a couple of things just for today.

This beauty is a tapestry of a lady sitting on the edge of the boat dangling her legs not caring whether her pretty white shoes get wet. She twirls the umbrella back and forth while daydreaming of love.
Once I saw this wreath it brought back lots of good memories of when we lived in Tracy, California. Every Fall my hubby and I would take the boys to the pumpkin fields in Lathrop. The boys were little so it was always a hoot to watch them go from pumpkin to pumpkin trying to find the BEST one. Once you found your pumpkin you placed it inside the wheelbarrow to haul them back to the main area. After the pumpkin picking we would head to the LARGE corn field maze and try and find are way through...lots of fun and laughter!

Thank you Leigh for a great Thrifty Thursday idea.

I love the wreath and tapestry. What a good feeling to find gently used bargains. The best kind.
Have a great day.

I love tapestry. I have one hanging in my entry that has been up there since we moved here in 2002, still love it today.

The tapestry is beautiful. Pumpkin farms are so much fun. I've always wanted to have my own pumpkin farm. It's good wholesome fun for the whole family.
Thanks for sharing!
Living it up at Lakewood,

Oh my goodness! What a small world! I lived in Tracy for three years and I am sure we went to that pumpkin patch. We lived there from 93 to 96.
