What a deal!


My daughter and I love poking through some of the thrift shops around town, mainly the Salvation Army, The Menonnite Central Committee Thrift Shop and Goodwill. I'm always hunting for vintage doilies, fabrics, buttons, postcards etc. and we both love old children's picture books. Many of my little handmade critters are inspired by storybook illustrations. Lucky finds from the past week include two books - an adorable nursery rhyme book from 1958 in perfect condition, and a Little Golden prayer book illustrated by Eloise Wilkin. They're both super cute, and they only cost 35 cents each!
