Yesterday was a 1/2 off sale at Goodwill so I picked up some supplies.
I got a baggie full of all this stuff. A zipper, a set of wooden purse handles, several buttons including doll size ones, strap guards(?), flower appliqués, fabric roses, some unidentifiable stuff, and four different kinds of lace. It was the lace I really wanted, the other stuff are bonuses, assuming I can find something to do with it all.
I also got a bunch of fabric. I have something special planned to do with it, and not something on my project list either. Still, I can’t even start on it without doing a little more research. I guess it is a little strange to be starting a big thing when I only just started something else.
Speaking of that something else, here’s a little something from the list. On my last list I made some doll aprons from a tutorial I found online (see Fun-sized Aprons). While making them I thought it would be neat to use the same idea to make a doll halter top too. I used the same pattern, but shortened it and made it wider. It makes for an easy little summer top for this Barbie doll. Of course it would fit her a little better if the elastic straps were a tad shorter, something I need to work on.
Here’s the updated list:

i like to call it badwill but i guess they give jobs out so it isnt that bad. you know the whole marked up items. its business. youre smart to go on sale day.
ReplyDeleteAre they really that bad? The prices at Salvation Army are much worse. I usually try to shop on a sale anyway. I love Thursdays because that's the dollar day. Items with the week's special tags are only a doller, that's how I got my breadmaker.
ReplyDeleteI love going to thrift stores for antique finds! Half price sales are even better, lol.
