Thrifty Haul: A few bits and bobs!

Hey there everyone!

Today I'm feeling very under the weather so I didn't go to school. My immune system mustn't be up to scratch because I was sick only a few weeks ago!? I've realised it's really getting into Autumn/Winter now, it's starting to get very cold so the hats, scarves and gloves will soon be out!
Are any of you feeling the chill too?

Anywhoo, I wanted to show you all the results of my trip to the thrift store not last weekend but the weekend before . . . . .

The charity shop I went into had a 'bric a brac buy one get one free' sale so I absolutely jumped at this offer!

(clockwise from left)
pink trinket box - £1.99
woven basket tray - £1.99   free
woven basket - 99p  free
makeup bag - 99p

The first thing that caught my eye was the little pink trinket box - it's so pretty and precious I just fell in love! It has a gorgeous beaded design on the lid.
I set out to find another item which I could get for free. I picked up the little woven basket, it's just so cute and useful for storing small things.
I then spotted the makeup bag. The pattern is really antique and unusual, and I quite like it so I had a think about it. It opens up so I can store makeup brush and all sorts in there. 
I decided my free item with that would the woven basket tray, at the time I hadn't figured out what I'd use it for, but I knew it would come in handy. When I got home with it, I decided I would I use it for setting my everyday makeup on! I just have to pick this up in the morning and everything is there - fantastic.

If there hadn't been an offer, I would have had to pay almost £6.
Instead, I paid almost £3. Bargain!
