seems kind of crazy for a "thrift store" to have a sale, but it happened! everything was 50% off.. that being said, it was a great shopping day. i got a bag full of fun vintage fabric squares, 3 vintage clothing patterns, a binder full of embroidery stuff and this old address/contact tin. while my mom got a wreath, christmas ornaments and an ash tray.
i want to show you what i did with that old address box. i turned it into a memory/quote box. anyone who knows me knows i have the memory of a goldfish (which i'd always heard was 3 seconds.. but supposedly it's 3 months?) so anyway this is an awesome tool for me to remember funny things that happen and quotes that people say. you can find my inspiration for this project here
btw sorry for the poor quality in these photos.. my camera broke last week :-( so it's off to be fixed.. until then i'm using my ipod touch!
I LOVE the idea for a cute little memory box! Thanks for the inspiration.
