I haven't done one of these in a while, so thought it was appropriate to start the ball rolling on my 2016 thrifting year (actually these finds might be from 2015 - oops!).
When I drive back from weddings, super late, I can usually catch this radio program called the witching hour on 4ZZZ a community station. One of the program's was all about tarot and after listening, I was super keen to get my tarot cards read. A few days later, Mariko posted about her tarot reading space in her office, which got my curious to do my own readings and then a few days after that I spy this pack at the op shop. I was going to do a reading everyday but I kept pulling the same cards and got freaked out so I stopped doing it. Whenever someone comes over I try and remember to get them to read their own cards and everyone has said its been spot on for them :)
I also picked up this Alice in Wonderland, tea for one, set :) It has the best illustrations on it by an artist called Paul Cardew
Some sunnies, that I think I was wearing in one of my polaroid photos last year.
The cutest little ceramics elephants that are so teeny tiny!
And some awesome shiny stickers to add to my sticker collection :)
I wouldn't be too freaked out by getting the same cards over and over. Some cards just call to people more than others. I'm not as regular with my daily cards as I'd like, but I've been doing more in-depth monthly readings that have been really illuminating.
ReplyDeleteI like the sound of a monthly reading :) I might get back into it for March - see if I pull the same cards again!!! Thanks for inspiring me anyway Mariko!!
DeleteDying over those stickers! I love thrifting vintage stationery more than anything else these days. :)
ReplyDeleteI've been known to have a good rummage in the stationery section, you usually have to rummage deep too!! But the gems are worth it :)
Deleteaw man I haven't found anything at the oppies this year :-( hardly had time to go and when I do there doesn't seem to be anything! love those stickers!
ReplyDeleteI was trying to work out if certain days are better than others and for some reason Monday seems to be working :) But yeah sometimes the stars of life don't align and you just something can't fit it in :( :(
DeleteI think you find the most amazing things. that tea set is so awesome!
ReplyDeleteIt's really sweet, the illustrations are amazing and I think it was only $3 which I appreciate :)
DeleteMagical tea set! Love the illustrations & also the fact that the set is stacked into one. :)
