Holy Hudson!

I am a lucky thrift-er, ask my friends...they will tell you!

Over my many years of thrift-ing and yard sale-ing, I have found loads of treasures.

Treasures that I have longed for, and treasures I never knew I needed.

I have always wanted a Hudson Bay Blanket. 

Who would have thought I would have found it on a HOT, Hot, Hot Florida Island.

                                     

 It's pretty old, but it is in perfect shape. The yellow has faded quite a bit. I did some research on line, and would guess the blanket is from the 1920's-30's. $60.00 - Yay!!!!!

I also found this cute little bird book. 25 cents

Check out this amazing cookbook! Ever recipe sounds good....however, I have no idea where I will ever get ham hocks, pigs feet, frog legs, or rabbit! There are a few other ingredients I have never heard of. The book is loaded with great stories, and folklore. 25 cents

 I found various bottles and a great canister....$2.oo for the canister, the little bottles were free.

 I found this old cigar press....I have no idea what it's worth...I must do some research. $5.00

 fiesta ware cups....25 cents each.

Old manual typewriter. $4.00 (if only I have paid attention in typing class)(Hi Judi)!

 I got some very cool old whisk brooms. I love these! I see a new collection in the making.
The bottom left was hand made in Georgia, the right handmade in Florida. $6.50, and $1.00

 

The weaving and craftsmanship is amazing.

I did get other items...an old marine lantern, a vintage tennis racket, cookbooks, frames.....etc.
Overall, it was a fabulous thrifty day!
