I found some great things at the Salvation Army the other day. I went looking for some red yarn to make a red hat to match my red gloves OR to find some cute teacups and tins to create homemade candles. No luck.
However, I did find a great mustard and cream woven blanket. It has a large ink stain right in the middle, but I figure I can cover it with some pretty fabric or lace. I'm sure it will be pretty obvious that I'm covering something, but it's such a nice blanket.
I found a pretty picture in a nice sturdy frame, but I can't figure out who painted it. It's an impressionist painting of a woman laying in a hammock. She's so delicate. I've searched and searched and just cannot figure it out. I even tore off the paper backing to see if there was some writing or a treasure map. There was neither.
Sad times: Somehow the coin purse I bought didn't make it into the extremely large bag AND the silver platter I was so proud to find actually isn't silver. EP Brass, whatever that is. The interwebs says that it's electroplated brass. whatever.
