Ric Rac Mania!!

I'm always jealous to see Katie's thrifted sewing notions. I had myself convinced that someone on the staff of my VV sews and is scooping all the "good stuff" before it hits the shelves.

I've been taking a really early lunch so that the computer lab is available to students at THEIR lunch time. Today, on my way home, I popped into VV and look what I found!!!!!



A great big bag of tangled up ric rac!!! How many people would be excited to see that??? Not many I'm imagining but I grabbed it. Admittedly, I did stroll through the linen section and nothing caught my eye. NOT that I would have bought it anyways (thanks stupid challenge).

I guess I'll be untangling ric rac for the next couple of evenings.

Tonight we're off to our Tuesday night "ice cream/geocaching" gathering with some of the local geocachers. Maybe I'll get to use some of the ric rac tomorrow evening.

The blue one with the leaf (?) design is pretty cool.

Lucky you. I ran into our thrift shop today, but didn't see too much.

That ric-rac looks sooo cute all tangled up like that.

Nice stuff. I also feel that our local charity store removes the craft stuff from what they get because there is never any yarn, thread, needles, buttons, etc. They do have some material but some of it has been there for years.
