This is a pic of a thrifted wool sweater I felted (washed in hot water so it would shrink up)
And these are the cute little slippers I made for Scarlet out of parts of it. I also made some arm warmers but it turns out that it is difficult to take photographs of your own arms. Hopefully i’ll get them in a future post;)
We made a trip to the Goodwill outlet store on Thursday, a.k.a. the bins and got SOOO much good stuff!
Time spent: 2.5 hours Money spent: 14.50 (plus 1.49 for a diet coke–digging is hard work!)
Came home with the following for Scarlet (sizes 3t-6):
8 little t-shirts (Scarlet’s faves: Tinkerbell & Lilo)
2 adorable sweatshirts (Scarlet’s fave: Sleeping Beauty, My fave: cute little horse print)
1 pair super cute little gap flared jeans
2 little pairs little cotton pants
2 little pairs pajama pants
2 cute little tank tops
2 sweet little skirts
1 pair little shorts
3 adorable cotton blouses
1 adorable cordoroy jacket (that won’t fit her for like 4 years but it was too cute to not get)
1 bonnet (so cute)
Bonus: For me!
2 t-shirts
1 skirt/shorts
1 long sleeved shirt
1 cotton button up blouse
3 wool sweaters for my felting adventures
1 really nice 6X6 wooden frame
2 yards of cotton fabric for my sewing adventures
ALMOST everything was stain free–I bought one t-shirt for Scarlet that has a small stain on the front that I want to applique something onto so it won’t matter;) No rips, all zippers work. How fabulous is that? All for 14.50! I am officially addicted. Props for Grandma for watching Scarlet so I could go in the first place (that place is too crazy to bring babies to!)
For those of you who haven’t heard of the bins–They sell clothes for 1.59 a pound:)
