My favorite church thrift store had a holiday fair over the weekend. It's like one giant garage sale and I always find some great pieces. This year did not disappoint.
I spent about $6 on everything and my haul included some festive fabric squares and this wood desk top.
I also grabbed these bags of Poly-Fil. One (wo)man's half full bag of Poly-Fil is my treasure!
I never pass up holiday gift labels. These were 50 cents each. They will definitely come in handy!
I'm most excited about this wood piece. I'm planning to paint it white and add a pretty French graphic to the top.
It supposed to get warmer again here this week and I plan on making the most of it in terms of outdoor painting. Stay tuned for the after!

Just sharing a few holiday-inspired projects from the weekend.
Some hand-stamped holiday fabric tags. Wouldn't they look sweet with some red/white baker's twine?!
Jingle Bells tea towels. These are actually ones that I made for me and my mom. The ones in my Etsy are minus the bells.
I purchased the image from Graphique on Etsy. I plan on also using it for a pillow.
The colder it gets here, the more I have Xmas on my mind. I know, I know, Halloween isn't even here yet, but there are 6 more weeks until Xmas.

What can you get for $3 at our local church thrift store?
How about a vintage copy of Peter Pan, an antique dictionary and 2 more dictionaries for my boys?
How cute are these little charms? Crowns and Fleur de Lis, oh my! But this one is by far my favorite...
This gorgeous old chair. It definitely needs to be cleaned up. I want to paint it, but the hubby says no way. Either way, can't you just see it with some pretty quilts stacked on it? Or a pretty Christmas pillow?! I don't quite know yet where I'm putting it, but for $2, I can find the space!

I know many of you also have Etsy shops, so I'm sure I'm not alone when I say, I am already starting on Christmas projects. Yes, Christmas.
It probably doesn't help either that my Pinterest pages seem to have been hijacked by Christmas. Still, it puts me in a festive mood and the early bird does get the worm.
These are some Twelve Days of Christmas advent bags I made for my boys. I hand-stamped each with random Xmas images and numbers.
These wood pins are going into my Etsy.
I hand-stamped various Christmas phrases on them. Cute for hanging Xmas cards or decorations.
I have a bunch more holiday projects in the works, but want to work on stocking up my Etsy before the madness truly sets in.
