Things I Didn’t Buy 52


This Scamp’s Adventure storybook from 1958 is pretty adorable.




I really liked this geography book for children—very cute illustrations.



And The Science Library book was interesting. There were multiple books from the series there, all focusing on different aspects of science.

Thrifted for Around $7


I went to a pay-by-the-pound thrift store and bought a few things. My friend and I weighed our stuff together, so I don’t have exact numbers for the clothes I bought. First up, this navy Chaps cardigan. I can’t help myself…I just love navy.


I also got this Kenneth Cole black pleated silk skirt.


The glassware was $1.74 all together. I got a glass pie dish. I’ve never made pie, but now that I have a pie dish maybe I will.


And I got seven small bowls—a mix of Pyrex and Fire King.


Finally, at a different thrift store, I got this black turtleneck sweater for $3.99. It’s nothing special—just a Target brand, but it fit and I thought I could always use a basic piece.

This Nevr-Dull tin is awesome.


And this Pozzoni’s tin is very beautiful.


I liked the simplicity of this Sure-Cut tin.


And I thought this Velvet tin was interesting.


Finally, a giant-sized Skippy peanut butter container.

The cover of The Most Wonderful Birthday Present is so cute.


This potato gun amused me.


And here’s a cookie gun.


I thought this old phone was interesting.


And I liked this Tillamook Oyster Stew packaging.
