Thrifted for $3.01

I bought two clothing items for a total of $3.01. First is this awesome aqua blue wool sweater. I love it. It’s so 1960s to me. It had some damage to it that I probably spent about an hour fixing. First, it had some small stains on the front and on both of the sleeves. I used some dishwashing soap and worked the soap into the problem areas by hand. Eventually, the stains came out (although this photo is from before I got the stain out). I have no idea if I damaged the sweater at all, but at least it looks better. I also noticed the neckline had a section that was fraying, so I used some thread to close the edge.

The second item I got was this Australia hoodie. I just liked it. It’s comfortable and cozy. 

And a coworker gave me this vintage tape measure that he thought I would like—so cute!

Things I Didn’t Buy 3

More interesting things that I didn’t buy. These adding machines are super cool, but expensive and unnecessary.

I really liked the look of this cooker.

And I thought this ice cream scooper was interesting.

Cute metal tape measure for $2. I briefly considered it, but the tape was rather worn.

I thought these hat boxes were cool, but I didn’t need them…at all.

I liked the design of this Snake Bite Kit.

I also liked the retro pattern of this pillowcase. It cost $1 and had a couple of minor stains, but I couldn’t justify buying it because I couldn’t think of a plan of how to use it (other than a pillowcase—which I didn’t want to do).
