I volunteer at the Kuakini Hospital Thrift Store, as it reopen after being closed for about 8 months because of COVID. It so much fun being there looking all the fun thing that are donated to the shop. Here are few goodies that I found today as I straighten up the shelves in between customers
Basket of chicken salt and pepper shakers and toothpick holder geese measuring spoons Small Jadeite pitcher Pamco glass measuring cup Cute set of ethnic dolls Found in the 3 for $2 shelves: carved leather platter (?) My favorite find of the day: Screen printed banana shape coin purse in the 3 for $2 shelf
Many of these I wanted but I just have no more space at the house. I may pick up the banana coin purse next week because some needs to have it.
What I did come home with: a vintage yukata (a summer cotton kimono) for the fabric. I think I will turn this into a top and maybe a couple of totes.
folded in half vintage fiber content tags store tag close-up of the collar and lapel
And a bright happi coat (a short jacket that is worn during festivals) because of fabric outside and lining. It will make a nice winter time coat.
The lining is so cute sleeve love the roundness of the bottom of sleeves.+
