Happy meetings and thrift-love
Posted May 12, 2010 at 3:46 pm by carrie
A couple of weeks ago, I had my first blogger-et-blogger meet up.
During a family trip to Phoenix, DiDenizen (aka Cara Jean Means) ditched the kids for a spell and we lunched and perused some vintage shops. (See her account).
She bought earrings — I bought a warming bean pot.
On our excursion, I learned that, while she likes vintage, she really, REALLY likes thrifting. Her blog is full of “look at what I made from this old thing” items.
Her ingenuity is inspiring me to do more altering of thrift-store goods.
The operative word there is “inspiring.” I haven’t yet worked wonders with a $2 top…but I can feel the ideas percolating.
Maybe I could do something with this dress?
