Thrifting Day Finds

Hey there!  We participated in the <a href="http://www.rashoncarraway.com/2011/06/party-locations-for-i-love-thrifting.html">I Love Thrifting Day</a> this past weekend and Hubby and I found all kinds of great things!  Check out our loot! <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
