get thrifty

The time has come, the Carlie said, to shop for many things.

I miss my lovely Deseret Industries. I really need some 75 cent books and random sweaters and incredibly comfortable denims. And maybe a dress or two. And who knows? Perhaps a shelf? A chair? A picture frame? The possibilities are endless.

And then, me and my brother will go to lunch. Splendid afternoon.

In our lovely deseret...industries

More fondly known as D.I., and quite possibly one of the greatest miracles of these latter days. A thrifty miracle. An oh-my-gracious-do-they-really-have-that-item miracle.

Carlie's Shopping I-just-barely-bought-these-incredible-things-tonight List

• 
  
  a couple of fantastically vintage dresses
• three pairs of delicious denims
• peachy-keen blouses
• an extremely creeper porcelain doll with a pale purple pallor
• a not-so-scary mini porcelain doll to hang on my mobile (YES! I am making a mobile! For my ROOM! Like what babies have, except...I'm seventeen!)
• a new desk chair, ready to be re-covered
• the shelf: $10.00, perfect condition, perfect size, perfection.
• and randoms: musty-smelling books, miniature brass picture frames, and ribbons.

All in all, a highly successful evening.
