my favorite thrift store find is the vintage pearl snap button shirt i am wearing today. i love it
Mine is a very colorful summer dress that everyone loves--what a steal!
But more importantly, which feminist reader was this??
Hey Hey! Nice finds! I have completed my Course 1 of the cake decorating series and received a certificate. Woohoo! Who knew I'd get a certificate? I've signed up for course 2. So I guess that is my summer goal, to learn cake decorating (in response to your last post).
And I want one of those couch thingies in the pic.
I think you should paint your front door like that one...
