I'm enjoying the fact that it's so popular right now, it's a cycle and things will be in then out then back in again. It seems like quilts were popular for a while and then out, but I'm seeing more of them lately. And there is never enough crochet for me!Otter Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10150285495175373444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15117059.post-15366783927467968622014-10-18T19:58:46.066-05:002014-10-18T19:58:46.066-05:00Finally!

Love the little coffee pot and the fish basket thingy...so many fun finds. Oh yes cheap quilts are always a bargain. I do love the PINK crocheted afghan! Most of the one's I see are all the browns and golds from the 70's! <br />hugs,<br />LindaLinda @ A La Cartehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16356471099319932835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15117059.post-78229120650606128782014-10-18T15:04:11.785-05:002014-10-18T15:04:11.785-05:00I've seen ideas on how to make cork doormats (...I've seen ideas on how to make cork doormats (sarahracha is one site with instructions).<br />A friend gave me over 200 corks...will make that doormat one of these days!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15117059.post-92202703893843059822014-10-18T15:00:19.243-05:002014-10-18T15:00:19.243-05:00Ditto on the blow mold story.

He was telling me how they were all the rage back in the day and that they are highly collectible now. I told him that if he wanted to pass something off as vintage, he should remove the Walmart sticker on the back. He was a condescending ass so I didn't mind being a little snarky to him.<br /><br />~EricaThrifterSistershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534524822325441476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15117059.post-90818499848466886132014-10-18T04:33:02.837-05:002014-10-18T04:33:02.837-05:00That sounds like a day in heaven to me.
