    Hello, I'm a thrifter from way back and am always convinced, unbeknownst to me, that I have picked up a treasure! For instance, I purchase pieces simply because I like them, not because I will get anything from them other than their beauty. But boy howdy!, wouldn't that be cool if an item was indeed a treasure?

    I enjoy ceramics, particularly anything with fuchsia on them, things to do with Ireland, and Spanish colonial items. Pretty diverse, but aren't we all just a little eclectic?

    Thanks for allowing me to join!

    Welcome, Duprey! Sure would be cool to find a true treasure in amongst the castoffs! You can't win if you don't play!

    And you get extra points for using "Boy, howdy!" ;)
