A Bargain and A Little Bling

I know many of you are familiar with Author, Michael Lee West and her great blog "Designs by Gollum". Well, I was in a used bookstore about a week ago, and look what I found - one of her books !! I think she wrote this one after "Crazy Ladies", which I have already read. I have not had a chance to start reading this one just yet.


And look at the price! It was definitely a "Thrifty Treasure".


What else have I been doing besides enjoying the beautiful weather these days? Enjoying this beautiful weather, the beautiful flowers and trying to avoid anything called "work". I was going to clean out and organize a closet this week. Opened the door, took one look and shut the door. Did I do another "work" project ? Nope ! Pulled out the bling and played with that! :-D Picture not that good, but it is a combination of white and gray faux pearls and silver plated meshed covered glass beads.

All the years I worked, I always had a watch on my wrist. When the battery died recently in my last watch, I did not bother to replace it as the band was not in the greatest of shape. I will eventually get another watch, but for now I put one on a chain. I had some watch faces that I had not done anything with, so put one on a chain with a little vintage faux drop pearl and a Swarovski crystal.

I am linking up with Leigh - Hostess of "Thrifty Thursday".
