Begining & Bargains!

So, I'm pretty excited. I now have a place to share all my projects, bargains, idea, and random things! This is also a step in opening my own Etsy shop, so I can sell necklace, rings, and misc. bling :) In case you don't know, Etsy is an online crafter's community, which allows to crafters to sell their wares. You can find almost anything you need at a reasonable price. I encourage you to check it out!

Now for my bargains! So my mom & I ran to Goodwill yesterday to find some pants for a play and my brother. While there I found some other great deals. Here a few of them...

#1
This is a dELiA*s dress that I bought for $5. It came in black & white, but I already owned one of that "color", so I picked up some dye during another one of our other stops, and after dumping it in the dye bath, it turned out like this! I absolutely love it!

At Goodwill, they sell fish bowls/vases full of misc. jewelry. I paid $10 for one and this awesome chocker came in it, along with a number of other good finds, such as a couple pairs of really cute earings, a few necklace changes, bangles, and other pieces that I can turn into rings. But none of those compare with the find below...

#3

So, in the vase/bowl thing, came this watch. I thought it was really cute, but when I showed to my mom, she suggest I look it up online, since Mickey stuff is very collectable. After a few searches, this is what I found out. I am now the proud owner of a 1935-'37 Mickey Mouse Ingersoll watch. Ya, so I'm pretty pumped. I'm planning on selling it on Ebay soon, and whatever money I make will go towards starting up my Etsy shop! Thank you, God! Isn't He so good!
