Thursday's Treasure

~*~

 It's rare that I walk out of a thrift store with just one thing.  I usually leave with several items or none at all.  But, the other day, this precious wooden duck was the only treasure worth standing in line over.

And look!  When you pull her string, she flaps her arms and legs!  She's an Alfred Mertens Pfullingen design from 1967.  Absolutely adorable colors and expression.

And woo!  On a different day, I spied these Vera Neumann vinyl placemats in with the holiday gear.  These can sell for as much as $10 per mat.  Guess how many I got for $2.99??   Leave a comment with your guess and I'll be back to share the answer tonight!

Have you found any treasures lately?  I'd love to hear about them :)

Hey Baby...

...Want to check out my crib?  I know, I know- bad.  I'm a child of the 70s, what can I say?  Don't let my silly intro take away from these amazing vintage crib sheets coming soon to sosovintage!

This Wamsutta "babycale" is in amazing condition- like new!  Yellow, blue, and pink gingham squares and animals.  There are ducks, donkeys, and roosters.  $15

These last two are cutters- too many stains to use, but so many adorable graphics ... perfect for baby quilts or room decor.  I think I will try out my brand spanking new cutting mat and tools on these!
