Thrift Stores

Where would you go on a shopping spree?

donated books

older now
used books settle
in their new home

Grateful for stores and small businesses online too. Wonderful to be able to create and share in many ways.

old and new art

old paintings
words from my parents
still encourage me

I rediscovered this poem, as I worked on Large Print Poems last year – a site I began in August 2020.

We enjoy paintings from thrift stores, and also new art from a few ETSY shops online (as one example). I am grateful for all the wonderful posts in my WordPress.com reader.
