It’s back to school time for us! Both kiddos woke up early with huge smiles. Our littlest is off to Kindergarten!
Since our shopping was a bit more special this week, we went “to the city” to buy polo shirts and lunch boxes. Getting out of the mountains is always a treat.
I always need more cashmere and wool to make my pillows and scarves so anytime we are out we squeeze in Goodwill if there is one around. I keep a list of what I’m watching for and on that list was another fan. Being in the mountains, our temps are cool enough not to need air conditioning but we do need that extra bit of help to get the cool air in.
Vintage fans are so much cooler than anything we could have found new in town. And it is a powerful little thing for just $3!
What about you? Any great finds recently?
oh my goodness, that fan is fantastic! just what my retro inspired basement would need, and something to be on the look out for! hope your kiddos had a great first day of school!
and your little grey cat is super cute-reminds me of mine! she’s part russian blue, or so i’m told.
thanks so much for stopping by the cape on the corner, and for your kind comment on my thrifty pillow finds!
The fan is so stylish. I passed an old fan up at a recent church sale and of course now wish I hadn’t. Mind you it would have only been for decoration here in Scotland!
What a sweet fan! I need to remember to check the housewares section the next time I’m out thrifting. I sure could use one of those in my office I’m redecorating in vintage stuff. The top is very cute.
Thanks for the comments! After using it for a week, it is hands down better then our others. They just don’t make them like they use to!
