Thank you Diane at, A Picture is Worth 1000 words, for hosting a great way to share our thrifty finds.
Thank you Linda at, Coastal Charm, for hosting your Nifty Thrifty Tuesdays meme as well.
Please visit Diane and Linda's blogs for some great fun with bargain hunting treasures.
The photo I am sharing is from my bedroom mantel. The vintage tea pot is a gift I won at a Chinese auction. This is one of my treasures from my trip to Canada at Claudie's home.
The Vintage Tea Pot was Claudies and she donated it to the auction. The runner on the mantel is a Goodwill purchase for I.00. The other items in the room such as the cranberry glass lamp was once owned by my Aunt and Uncle. It was given to me when my aunt passed away.
This next photo is also from Canada. These peignoirs are purchases from a huge thrift shop called Value village in Ottawa. Claudie collected them for our Blog party visit. We did wear them for fun on our last day n Canada.
I shared this photo recently but it seems appropiate to show this fun time we had again.
HERE WE ARE IN CANADA AT CLAUDIE'S BLOG PARTY IN OUR VINTAGE PEIGNOIRS.
Six Bloggers getting together for a week with Claudie at, French Pink Poodles and Pearls.

Keep on thrifting. Those great buys are out there just waiting for you to find them.
Love, Jeanne

What a perfect send-off---lingerie ladies by the lake! Is that your best side?
I can't imagine what a fun time the whole visit must have been---I'll bet your face hurt from smiling.
So glad you have such wonderful friends, and double-glad that you share them!
