Come get an award, Marines, bargains and FUN!

Hi! i hope you had a WONDERFUL day and the weather is finally warming up where you are! :)
of course this weekend we went to the swapmeet again. Want to see a few goodies?
These FUN keychains were only 50 cents each and there is a leafy pin that was only 50 cents too.

This stone whale was a bit beaten up but still a deal at two dollars.

i got ALL these items for a dollar total, just look at that abalone bangle!!

This fake book is soo attractive, i thought it was a bargain for only five bucks.

and here is the inside.

Two dollars for this pretty pink stone sweater clip. How many of you remember these? hehe

And last was this stone or cast concrete with a glaze on it and weighs ALOT! lol it stands about 7inches tall.

And then i also got a book for free, since i buy soooooooo many from this vendor, on Shiatsu massages and pressure points to
relieve such things as sleepless nights to diabetes. Called Japanese Finger-Pressure Therapy. looked interesting! i expected to pay a buck or two but gifts are ALWAYS cool! :)
oh and here is what i finally wound up doing with my stone storage, i lined the drawers cheaply, er, um, i mean inexpensively hehe with felt squares! :)

it's going to work GREAT cause these drawers are friction drawers, it will keep the stones from sliding around and breaking off points. :)
Oh this Sunday was another Marine Sunday and i wish i knew how to find out what they are doing!



Whatever it is, it sure LOOKS serious!!
i recently came across this Cool blog that
i hope you find as interesting as i do!! This lady shows an item and tells its original purpose
and then shows you what SHE did with it! Check it out, you might find something useful too! :)

One final thing before i end this post tonight. When the One World, One Heart giveaways were going on? well, i did win one item and it FINALLY arrived! i was beginning to believe that the postal service just lost it or something! oh but it is AWESOME and presented soooo COOL too!
take a look!
First my DH hands me this envelope and i KNEW right away what it was!

i open it and find

Isn't that the CUTEST card!?! It was there just to say "i hope you enjoy your purse charm" HOW SWEET! And then i open the CHARMING little pouch and find my goodie!!

And of course, the designer was soo WONDERFUL & patient as i worried about how long it took to get here safely. :)
