Well, a new puppy of ours found it one day and decided to play with it and ripped it open. The cushion’s innards were exposed, and at first I was horrified and upset at the dog.

"Death Star tea mug. Found for 75 cents at Miracle Hill Thrift Store in Easley, SC."
"Thrifted this little girl’s umbrella. With the Morton Salt little girl on the handle, the umbrella has the Morton Salt logo “when it rains it pours”."
"Got this at the Goodwill bins for less than $7! It’s a vintage Sears coat"

"Found a Rookwood vase from 1928 in the wild for $5.98. If you know, you know!"
