Normally the stuff in thrift shop windows lures people in, rather than scares them away.This chair, recently showcased in my local thrift store, was somewhat questionable, especially with the $149.99 price tag.
But it was solid wood. It was just so huge, and so ornate, and in my opinion, really ugly.
It sat there for a while. They slashed the price. Then one day, it was gone.
This one made me gasp.Now I know fur hats have experienced a bit of a comeback in the world of fashion, but this one, featuring the actual head and beady little eyes of a raccoon, was truly horrific.
What's even more horrific: I saw the hat in the window only a day or so ago.
And last night on the way home, I saw that it was gone.It was slightly disturbing that the head was on its side. Was the shopper so anxious to get the hat that it was snatched off the display head in a flurry of excitement?
Or did the hat run away?
Brr. I sure hope I don't bump into that thing in the neighbourhood.
I hope that hat ran away.

I think the hat scurried off! Now it's probably posing as a lap dog for someone with poor eyesight!
ReplyDeletelol!
ReplyDeletethat is a crazy hat, maybe someone bought it to use as a prop or a way to deter everyone from wearing real fur. Either way it does beg the question who would buy that hat. :)
