Today my cabin looks exactly as the banner photo shows. I love being out there when it's snowing. The pine trees look as if they have white frosting on them and when I peek at the landscape through my cabin window, it's like looking at a wonderland. I'm very blessed to have this little retreat.
After the Christmas rush was over I took a little time to visit area thrift shops, which are some of my favorite haunts. I'm not usually looking for anything in particular. I just like to browse. If I find something I like, I put it in my cart and think about it awhile before I make a purchase. I'm much more selective than I used to be so sometimes I talk myself out of buying things and walk out of the store empty-handed. That's ok too.
To justify bringing home thrift store treasures, I try to be diligent about letting go of things I no longer use or want. It's not always an easy task, and I admit I don't always follow through very well, but when I succeed, it does equalize the "stuff" (at least that's what I tell myself) and gives me something new without stressing my household budget. Win-win! You can click on the photos for a closer look.
