Thrifty Thursday: Sewing Boxes!

This week I wanted to share two of our sewing box finds! Last Friday, we went to an estate sale and picked up this beauty for only $20. Not only was it a deal to get this sewing box for so cheap, but it was also full of knitting needles and yarn! So we got some snazzy bonuses. 


It has so much storage space and is on convenient wheels. It is perfect for moving around the house when you want to craft in different rooms!


We have had this little box a bit longer; it came in the last apartment we lived in. This little guy is really nice for storing little odds and ends. While it is a sewing box, I have been using it to store my jewelry. It is really perfect to house a variety of different objects!




I cannot wait to fill these up with all of our sewing notions and knitting supplies!

Lovely little things!

In the last few days, I have been lucky enough to find a few new lovely purchases. One has brightened our apartment and another has added a little more flare to my wardrobe. 

When leaving brunch this morning, I spied this bright blue elephant for my wall. Right now he is residing over the couch and really brings something special to the space. Better yet, it was 30% off! So perfect to find something you love and to discover it is on sale. I bought him from this & that, which is a lovely store full of silly little treasures and never disappoints. While a lot of the products are over the top, there is usually something for everyone. 




Next I found this lovely silk scarf at a second hand shop the other day! It is so amazing and only about a $1.50. I had a very long and hard week, so, it was really nice to be rewarded with a great thrifting find! I wore it in my hair today and it was just perfect. 


The detailing of sword fights is the best part!


So happy to have found these two to add to my eclectic collection! They are both so perfect for me in every way!
