Thrifting Finds

I thought it would be a good idea to post pictures of my thrifty finds from the Lawrenceville area... so here are some pics!

The dog crate was free - found while wandering in some woods behind my apartment complex! It also came with a dog bowl. The crate is actually in great shape.



The lanterns were $.99 from Metro Thrift in Lawrenceville. There were a bunch... I got four. I LOVE them! They look so cool in my dining room! We added green twine to hang them by.









This beauty was also found at Metro Thrift. $6.99 for that wonderful bookshelf that sits on my deck. I'm in love. I also went to anthro and found some on sale knobs that Jeremy helped me attach to the bookshelf to provide awesomeness... and a little bit of usefulness.













And I believe my greatest find so far..... Clark's Wallabee's. They were on sale. HALF OFF. From St. Vincent's Thrift store in Lawrenceville. If I were to buy these shoes directly from Clark's, they'd cost me $100 + shipping... http://clarks.zappos.com/n/p/dp/3030715/c/820.html
I got them for...... drum roll........ $1.50 (that's the half off price from $3.00)!!!!!!!!! These are my fav. I don't care how dorky I look in them. They are awesome!!!! And in SUCH great shape! :)











More to come, as I continue to discover new thrift stores and yard sales in my new area. The more I venture out, the more I actually start to love this place!

create in me a clean heart

you came to take us. 
all things go, all things go. 
to recreate us. 
all things grow, all things grow. 
we had our mindset.
all things know, all things know.
you had to find it.
all things go, all things go.
- sufjan, "Chicago" from Illinois

i need to be recreated and grown. thank God for the one who heals and is the everlasting prince of peace. 

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.
