Thrift store goodness!
Aug. 21st, 2006 11:01 pmSomewhere on the internet (possibly here?) I read about some girl who found a cashmere sweater in the thrift store and frogged it and now has some awesome yarn. Undettered by the fact that I live in Georgia and have never seen anyone wearing a cashmere sweater, much less found one in a thrift store, I had to go by the Potter's House.
Well, I found no cashmere sweater. In fact, there were no sweaters at all (do they put them in storage until fall?) BUT I found a really huge gold-ish colored silk shirt, so I cut it into pieces and made myself a silk pillowcase! WHOO!
(sorry, no pics as I can't find the cable for the camera, but they wouldn't really be interesting pics anyway, it's just a pillowcase).
anyhow, the reason I am posting is because I also found 6 blocks of Fimo for .50 each! they are all in different shades of brown and some of them are sort of glittery.
so my question is:
what on earth should I do with them? I'd love some inspiration!
Thanks!
