THRIFTY FINDS


There's nothing I love more than a good estate sale. On Saturday, I might have had the best experience yet. Yard sales are always a hit or miss. We had a good feeling about what we'd find in Elm Mott and we sure were right. They had an entire wall dedicated to atomic dinnerware and glasses. Tad knew we were in trouble, but I controlled myself! We left there with 16 vintage glasses under $12. A steal of a deal if you ask me.

We also paid a little visit to the infamous Style Station in West. A wee bit out of my budget at the moment, but boy did they have some gems. OK. So I kind of cheated with the Siesta Ware glasses. I actually ordered those on Etsy. They came in this weekend and I must say they are a great addition to my other finds. One man's trash is another man's treasure, right?

A SATURDAY IN AUSTIN


Klifford is reason alone to watch this video. We took him to Austin on Saturday and he just couldn't handle the heat. He can be such a princess when it comes to the outdoors. Don't worry, he was very well hydrated despite what it may look like. On a brighter note, he made many new friends. We visited our favorite thrift stores and ate lunch at the most delicious food trucks. So glad Kandee joined us!

You can check out our last Austin outing with Klifford here. Note to self: Don't take him back again until fall. Better yet, winter.

AN AUSTIN OUTING

Who doesn't love Jo's Coffee message of love?
Tad and I made a little trip to Austin this weekend for a few reasons. 1. It's my favorite place in Texas. 2. I had to order a bridesmaid dress for my best friend's wedding (super pumped). 3. I love to thrift. 4. We got to meet my darling little sister, Kandee, for dinner in San Marcos.

After we made a trip to David's Bridal and Whole Foods, we made our way to South Congress. Oh my do I love that place. New Bohemia and Feathers Boutique are kind of my favorite places to shop. A little retro, a lot of awesome. Picked up an adorable 70s dress and a cozy bomber jacket. Austin, until we meet again.
