My fave antique booth

We don't really have a lot of antique shops around town. However we do have this one large antique mall called Angel's Antiques. I usually visit it on Sundays when I'm bored and there is not a lot of anything to do. Well I decided to go after class Wednesday night because I had not been in quite awhile. This one is my favorite booth there: it's called Time to Go!

An overall view of the tiny booth



Some handmade blankets she has for sale


Some craft and cookbooks and other textiles beneath


An amazing assortment of bias tapes and trims


Vintage pyrex and tea towels outside the booth


Vintage buttons along the back wall




Rows and baskets of vintage fabrics


The goodies that I brought home:

4 cards of vintage buttons

spool of yardages of vintage cotton twill tape

Actually 3 of the button cards I purchased from this booth; the card on the farthest right with the five blue buttons I bought from another booth. The spool of tape was only $5 and the buttons from this booth were only $0.50 a card. The buttons from the other booth were $2.50, but it was well worth it!

-A!

Thrifting today!!!

<span style="font-family: Arial; ">I was really intending on catching up on my sleep and catching up on my sewing today. WRONG! I went out at about 9:30 this morning, deciding to go to Goodwill because I have not been to ours in a long time. Well going to Goodwill led to going to another thrift store which led to an antigue mall. And lemme tell you did I get a heap of stuff today. I didn't even go to the Salvation Army, lol.</span>
