What did I buy today ?

Today I went to a nearby town to some thrift shops and antique shops and managed to find a few things I couldn't resist........

I love this blue Ric-rac and its cardboard holder I don't think I could ever have enough Ric-rac...
and as for the puppy and the squirrel well I saw them and had to have them soooo cute.......they have a nice new home on my crafting desk......
