Kirkhaven: Thrifting for less
http://alloneway.blogspot.com/2013/10/thrifting-for-less.html
Tuesday, October 8, 2013. I'm just going to skip the part about why I haven't been blogging lately, and get straight to the good stuff: Thrifted fashion! Lately, I've discovered that you don't have to pay full price - even at Goodwill. Store policies may vary depending on where you live, but in Lincoln, there are three clothing sales per month at each location: The 10 for $10 sale, the traveling sale and the 99-cent clothing sale.

Kirkhaven: July 2013
http://alloneway.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 8, 2013. Paint all the things. When moving, it's important to keep your priorities straight for optimum organization and stress-free-ness. Clearly, I am winning at this. Why, is spray-painting Goodwill treasures not on the top of your to-do list while transitioning households? Set of 2 from Goodwill - $1.99 each. Not exactly sure what this is, but I LOVED it - $3.99. Primed and ready for . something. The finished product - painted Heirloom White and. Gussied up with pretty scrapbook paper.

Kirkhaven: October 2012
http://alloneway.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 29, 2012. I get my hair cut about twice a year, so this is how it looks when it's reached the scary split end stage:. I realize it doesn't look that bad in this photo, and I chalk that up to Day-Of-Haircut Syndrome. Do you experience this? The day I get my hair trimmed is inevitably my best hair day in months. Anyway, I got about three inches cut off and now it feels tremendously healthier, though not noticeably shorter:. It used to be super curly . Has this happened to anyone else? Fortu...

Kirkhaven: April 2013
http://alloneway.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 30, 2013. Jim and I have been looking for a new home. Well, really we've been house hunting for the past three years, but it's for real this time. Last Saturday we toured half a dozen homes with our buyer's agent. My takeaway:. 8226; There are some very, very nice homes for sale in Lincoln; and. 8226; They go very, very quickly. No joke. If a house is on the market here for two days, that's unusual. So there's quite a bit of pressure to make quick decisions. Monday, April 8, 2013. 1 The We...

Kirkhaven: New favorite
http://alloneway.blogspot.com/2013/10/new-favorite.html
Tuesday, October 15, 2013. I thrifted this dress the other day, and I love it. I can see a lot of potential for it in all seasons, and who knew olive was so versatile? The label is Camaieu (a quick Google search showed it's a French brand), so it feels even fancier than my other Goodwill finds. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). There was an error in this gadget.

Kirkhaven: January 2013
http://alloneway.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 30, 2013. Mad for plaid refashion. This was originally a shirtdress, vintage early 1990s. I tried it on at Goodwill and when the bodice was clearly insufficient to contain my chestal region, I nearly put it back. Then I reconsidered its positive points: Yellow, plaid, full skirt, $5.99. So, I bought it. The lady at the cash register eyed it, commenting: "That's sure a lot of plaid.". Yes Yes, it is. Refashioned plaid skirt thrifted. Monday, January 21, 2013. The '80s called . Pants Dre...

Kirkhaven: A key emergency turns into a learning experience
http://alloneway.blogspot.com/2012/02/key-emergency-turns-into-learning.html
Monday, February 20, 2012. A key emergency turns into a learning experience. The scariest moment of motherhood (so far) happened to me last Friday. I should preface this by saying in the grand scheme of things, it wasn't that bad and for that I'm counting my blessings. But the experience left me shaken and a little wiser — it was an exercise in learning to ask for and graciously receive help. Putting aside the mindset of self-sufficiency that's bred into every Nebraskan, I accepted their kind offer and w...
