Thrifty Treasures

I went to a thrift shop on my lunch hour today and found a few treasures.  The proceeds from this thrift shop goes to a local battered women's shelter, so you can have fun shopping and know that the money you spend goes to a good cause.

 The above runner has a lovely texture.  It is about 5 or 6 feet long and cost $3.00.
 I just love this heart shaped dish.  It was only $3.00.  It's about 6 or 8 inches across.

 Three white place mats for $3.00.  They match some I already have so I was glad to find these.
This is another runner that was $2.00.  It is shorter than the other runner, but has pointed ends and tassels while the longer one is straight across on the ends.  I plan to use these at the home in South Georgia, but may do a table scape with them here first.  The longer runner may be used as a window treatment in one of the bathrooms at our other home.  It would work perfectly.

I am joining the party at Slice of Surburbia.  Thanks Kristin for hosting!
I'm also joining Nifty Thrifty Tuesday.  Thanks to Linda for hosting this fun party.

On Friday, I am joining the Junkin'  party at Linda's.
Be sure to stop by these parties for lots of inspiration!
