Okay, heres a thrifty challenge...for this swap we will buy as many white milk glass items with $5.00 (max) USD. I can honestly say if you can only buy one item...you are NOT thrifty! :p If you are not sure what "white milk glass" is, Google or Flickr "white milk glass" This can be anything from vases, candy dishes, boxes to cake stands. They look so pretty clustered together. Imagine a white single flower vase with a bright red poppy in it, soft shabby chic look...a single pink or red rose. Just how thrifty are you? :)

Ah, bah. I live in an expensive area and half the time even white milk glass is more than $5. O_o

Not sure what they are but it looks like fun. I will check the thrift store next week for what they have before I sign up.

I find milk glass here for .10 cents up to $100.00. The flea markets always have it for under a $1.00. If you look in the right corner of your thrift stores or open up cabnits that stuff is sitting on you would be suprised at what you may find. I looked under a cabnit last Friday and found a Huge clear trash bag fulll of lace, i thought it was a tabel cloth, when i opened the bag i was suprised to see that it was yards up on yards of nice Fintage lase. They are wraped on the plastic and wood spools thay came on. With a price tage of .10 cents a yard. I was so happy. I bought the whole dang bag for a DOLLAR!! I couldn't tell you how many yards there are yet, i am still counting. They range from a 1/4 in wide to 6in wide. I don't use a lot of lace but a lot of people here are asking for it so i will be putting lace in with most of my swaps for a while. LOL Well if tit's on the profile. And i have found a use for some ofr valentine's day.. Any how you really have to look in these stores you will be suprised..
