okay, i know it's only september, but for all of those who know me well, know that next to christmas, fall & halloween are my absolute favorite times of year to decorate. i've already put out some fun halloween stuff--also with some new treasures i found at the thrift store...that fun "dessert" plate--LOVE the colors!! & the tiny jar i found & filled with black buttons...
and my fun vintage pumpkin man who has a cord in him & lights up~!! he was only .99!!! he makes me smile. (yes, i'm wearing a tank top & holding a fall object--it's so bloody hot!! in september!!! yucky!!)
then this....this old tin box (remember i'm a sucker for these, right??!) anyways...i was sooo excited when i saw this...i had been standing in line outside the thrift store--it was the 1/2 off everything day, so there were a LOT of people. so, the doors opened, & it was mayhem!! i grabbed my cart & my eyes were frantically looking everywhere, assessing all the goodies that lay before me...when i spied this little beauty on a bottom shelf. i zoomed over to it & grabbed it & threw it in my cart. woohoo!!! i didn't even open it until i got home & was pleasantly surprised to find that it must have been a cash box of some kind--it has fun little compartments, & all that stuff. no money, but it didn't matter--LOVE the color--& the tin, the vintagey-ness of it...it's amazing how old stuff makes me so happy. :) don't ya love my little crow on top?? sooo halloweeny!!!
