My mom flew in last Friday and left this morning, bringing with her a few gifts for me, a chance to take a trip to Venice, Italy, and a love of thrift shopping. Since I love gifts, I love traveling, and I love thrifting, I have decided; I am my mother's daughter. Venice pictures will be posted later, but I couldn't wait to share my thrifting/gifting/souveniring experience.

I've been looking for thrift stores in the Kaiserslautern area since I got here, but didn't find one until recently. As soon as I walked in, I saw this and fell in love. Who doesn't want a cool typewriter?! |
|
I also have a thing for owls. Mom spotted this on the wall, so I brought it home, too. |
|
Speaking of owls, Mom brought these fingerless gloves with her. Made by some friends and accompanied by a cute clip I wear in my hair...I'm in love. |
|
Mom also brought me this, a Christmas ornament. Not sure where she picked it up, but it's cute! |
|
So, to continue the trend, I bought an owl ring while in Venice, Italy. |
|
My collection grows larger and larger! |
|
Another souvenir from Venice is the wooden cat on the right. I love animal carvings, and bought it to accompany my elephant, dog, and slightly eaten owl. The Christmas ornament just wanted to be in all the pictures, so I let him. |
love these little creatures! let me know when you have time & perhaps we can grab some coffe o' lay!
