Mimi has a thing about going to thrift stores to find children's books for her classroom. Ok, I say she has a thing. Really it's an obsession. She packed only two outfits for a two week visits so that she could have more room for books. This is a sign that she has a problem.
I digress. After Mimi found a pile of used books at the local Goodwill I went in. I found a few knits to refashion, a flannel shirt for me and these coral capris. They were in a larger size so there was plenty of room to cut out a pair of shorts for the toddler. The reason they were at Goodwill? The previous owner couldn't fix a hem. See the tape? BAH! So sad for those who can't sew. My gain.
Since the pants were the color of the week that got 50% off I got the pants for $2.50. Woot woot! And...I got a bunch of notions off the cut up pants. This might be how hoarders start.
