Thrift Stores and Anne

Me and my close friend, Anne, love to go Thrift store shopping on the weekends. Usually we spend hours sorting thru junk, just to find a few treasures to go home with.  By the time we leave, we're hot, crabby, and excited over some 25 cent find we're coming home with :)

 Anne makes these cool wreaths with old books she finds... :)

Petty cool, huh? Her Etsy shop is Regrooved....Check out her store....

What items do YOU like to recycle into awesome projects?

grat·i·tude/ˈgratəˌt(y)o͞od/

Noun:

The quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness.

Ok...I'm obsessed with all things mini....albums, journals, you name it. I made this cute little gratitude journal today. It's only 4 x 3... :) I want to make one that's even more mini. I thought it would be great to be able to write 10 things that give you gratitude....or write 10 things that you LOVE about someone else...to be able to show them how blessed you are that they are in your life. I'm all about gratitude right now. I don't think we show it enough.

So, let's all learn a little gratitude...no matter how much or how little we have. What could it hurt?
