I don't understand why people get rid of luxury soap. Don't they take showers?? I was happy to find these Crabtree & Evelyn soaps that are made in Switzerland and the Monticello soaps. I love soaps. The candle holders are made in West-Germany by Funny Design. I love anything German. The boxed greeting cards were fifty cents.
Another thing I love is pewter. And pewter pitchers in particular. This one cost me $5. It was priced at $10, but I always try to get stuff for half... They owners had a Post-It note on it saying: made in Mexico. But the stamp on the bottom of the pitcher clearly states Made in the USA. Not that it matters to me either way, but I just thought it was odd. The toad stool pepper and salt shaker have no brand but reminded me of Germany and German Christmas decor, so that's why I had to have them. They cost a dime. The Vera Bradley children's purse was too cute to pass up. I'm a big Vera B. fan.
This scarf was priced at $20. I looked it over and could not find any label on it. It feels like polyester, though it's soft and pliable. I talked them down to $10. They, too, didn't know if it was a true Chanel. All the owner could remember was that she bought it in Europe, possibly England. Does anybody have tips for me to find out if this may be authentic? Whether it's Chanel or a rip-off I like it either way and will wear it lots.
The weekend that started with a cow....
...ended with a pig and a turtle. How's that?
