Thrift Store Find



I've been needing a new measuring spoon set for a little while now, and a new corkscrew for even longer. I've had a big pizza wheel for a long time, and I've never really liked it. It just doesn't get into the edge of the pizza pan well enough to cut completely through the crust. So I mostly end up not using it, and go for the kitchen sheers instead. I've really been missing the small wheel I once used to have. But today, my mind was just set on finding a new set of spoons.

So, I took a venture out to my local thrift store and began to hunt through their packs of various kitchen supplies bagged together, usually 3-4 items per bag. After a relatively short search, I found a bag of gadgets that caught my eye. I turned it over in my hands, assessing all that was in it, and stood there in a happy kind of shock. Could this possibly be true?
Everything that I've been needing, including an extra set of spoons, was in the bag!! It was unbelievable. And I'm even more thrilled that one of the sets of measuring spoons is a Tupperware set. They just don't make them like that anymore. And the best part is that I got it all for just $3. Yes, that's right - $3. I feel like I just won the lottery, lol! My family will probably see me smiling silly for a little while everytime I use one of my little thrift store gadgets. But that's okay. I don't mind.

Bathroom Gadgets

Things that would be great to keep my bathroom neat and organized.........
holder for inside cabinet door
This would be perfect for my daughter since I'm always finding the blow dryer tossed up on the back of the toilet!


tension pole caddy
I have to get one of these. With all of our different shampoos, soaps, body washes, razors, and creams, it's a balancing act when any one of us steps into the shower!

toilet paper holder
This is wonderful! My rack stands on the floor, and is always getting bumped into, or knocked over.
soap holder
Now this is nothing short of ingenious! My biggest pet peeve with bar soap is that it gets all soft and slimy from sitting in a little puddle of water.


sprays and brush organizer
I love this idea. A place for everything hair related.

towel rack
This is so much nicer than having the towels hung on the back of the door where they never really dry. And their wetness is up against the wood of the door. You'd need a bit of wall space and room for this, but it's a very practical solution!
