Weekend finds

For a long time I have been in love with play kitchens like this, but not so in love with the accompanying price tag.  So, imagine my delight at spotting this little treasure for only $8!!! Not quite as fancy and needs a little work but oh so exciting.  I've got time to spruce it up as Lydia's head is about level with the counter at the moment.

And this lovely folding chalkboard.  I foresee it being useful for homeschooling down the road or just for fun.  Now for some Chalk to start practicing chalkboard drawings.

A sweater to felt and repurpose.  A puppy book for a certain adorable niece and her two Brittany puppies.  And this funny little hand held percussion instrument.  I'm sure you all remember from elementary school music class.

Ah, the joys of thrifting!
