Seems like "just a few thrifts" is all I've been finding lately which is still better than zip, right? Two books and a made in Hong Kong plastic nativity ornament.
Although this one is shaped differently, I had a plastic nativity ornament when I was a kid. I wonder what ever happened to that?
The "Ho, Ho, Ho!" book is full of Andy Warhol's Christmas artwork. Kind of interesting.
Here is a page from the above cookbook-- whatever happened to this world?
I also found a Christmas tablecloth is nice condition. I must apologize for not ironing it, but I wanted to hurry and get it listed so I let that slide. Shame on me! What my grandmothers would think!!
Have a great day-- hope you live up to your grandmother's standards!
I like the tablecloth. I'm going thru garage sale withdrawal. I put myself on hold until I sell some more stuff - I ran out of room to keep things. I'm beginning to think I need hoarder intervention.
ReplyDeleteLike you said, at least you found something! I visited all my regular stops this week - nothing!!!
ReplyDeleteYour manger scene looks so familiar, I think I might have had that very one, way back. I thrifted one last year but it's a bit bigger.
I love to find old books. I actually have that old cookbook. It's the first one I got when I got married. A friend told me it had the 'basics' and she knew I didn't know how to cook! haha! Sweet hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteNever did..never will
ReplyDeleteGreat haul...
ReplyDeleteI used to collect little nativities. I think they're packed away now. Some of them I gave away to newly married couples that were having their first Christmas...
The books look interesting. I taught all my children to cook-- but so many people don't know how to open a can...much less read a recipe now adays!
The nativity ornament looks a lot larger when photographed just by itself.
