From the Adventures of Thrifty the Wonder Mama


I found some other cuties the other day on my thrifting adventures. It's funny. Well not laugh out loud funny, maybe not even funny, perhaps just peculiar. I do the rounds of the shop, then go for a second round. Usually on the first round I come up empty handed. The second round is when I yield the goodies. I get bamboozled on the first round, second round I'm calm, I know the field I am playing and I can relax and really look.

I found these beauties for just 2 clams.

I was thinking of making them into something (because let's face it, when it comes to making things I am *ahem* the bomb with my exemplary track record), given whoever made them put so much work into them, I wanted to continue their journey, but then my sister gave me the super idea to frame them. Enjoy them as they are. They're pretty spectacular no matter which way you look at them.

Magical March: Day 4

I am going double-time so I can catch up on Magical March. Since I invented it, it's the least I can do, right?

So Magical March. Let's see where you can take me today. Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat!

1-2-3 kazaaaam!

Et voila!




Please watch out for 1min 10 - that woman's very special spectacles (and is that young Helena Christensen in the background?

1 min 45 - something very magical indeed, Copperfield's jacket. Magic it my way baby!
Goes without saying, the mystified vox pops at the end are very magical.
