Now let's talk about some NIFTY THRIFTY treasures...ideas and so on! This week I'm sharing a couple of thrifty finds that I discovered at Penelope's Closet. Now let me tell you a little bit about this wonderful shop...it helps to support our local Penelope House...a house for women and children that have been victims of domestic violence. It's been a long time since I have been here and I was really surprise with all the updates that have taken place. I know a lot of our local consignment shops donate merchandise to this charity and I'm thinking that maybe some of our local shops donate also...I couldn't believe all the merchandise that still had price tags on them and were clean, fresh and in style...I'm talking upscale merchandise. Here is a couple of goodies that I came home with. Now it is time for you to show me whatcha got!

                        Thank you for coming and I hope you have a FUN time here at my PARTY!
                                                                           Linda

                                        Loved the size...just perfect for displaying some of my
                                                      THRIFTY sterling flatware!

                           Yes...I have some sterling flatware engraved with some other persons
                                                             name on it...oh well!

                                        I'm loving displaying milk glass in my dining room...so
                                                     I'm looking for more to add to my
                                                                     collection.

                                          So when I found this $3 beauty...she just had to come
                                                                    home with me!

                                         Then I spotted this tall one...it was my lucky day...she
                                                                  had a $7 price tag!

                                             I will be adding my two new friends here in
                                                     my dining room soon...stay tune to
                                                               see their new home!
