Thrift Store Score


 A couple of new thrift stores opened
up in town in the last month


so I spent a fun few hours perusing their wares.


Great prices, I spent under $15.00 and got some cool stuff.



Stay tuned to the blog -



you'll be seeing most of these items in up-coming art projects.

  2. bobbie - several years ago I found a very old metal paint box about that size and turned it into Monet's Paintbox. I may do something similar with this one - Renoir's Paintbox, Cassett's Paintbox? We'll see!

  3. Doll heads are usually scary, but this one has a rather sweet face. Good shopping. xo

  4. Marylinn - Margot is somewhat less than thrilled about the number of disembodied doll heads in my studio, but my friend Destiny thinks they're wonderful! I'm not sure why they appeal to me - maybe because in my early days relatives kept giving me dolls for Christmas when what I wanted were cap pistols! Wouldn't have been allowed to decapitate the dolls then, but now...

  6. Chris - Yeah the circle thing - called a divider I think. Don't know what I'm going to do with it, but I know it will be fabulous!
