Number Nine: This Funky Pot Thing, $3.99

I'm not usually into pottery, but I dig this piece. I think the design looks like grass growing up from the ground. Love it! BTW, check out my current fave blog, The Brick House, where you can always peek in on what its charming writer buys each weekend during her thrifting adventures. She always shows the dramatic/heartbreaking/hilarious sides of thrifting.

Thrifting used to be a HUGE part of my world.  I haven't been as much recently, but I still love all my quirky little finds.  So now you have to care about them too.
