Vintage Disney Mickey Mouse Twin Sheet

I came across this beautiful red Mickey Mouse sheet at Value Village recently, and I was surprised to see that it was in perfect condition.

It came as a two-piece set with a much more worn pillowcase.

My mystery was solved a few minutes later as I flipped through the rest of the rack - I found the matching fitted sheet in a much more faded condition, so I left that behind. I realized that the flat sheet was probably never used at all! There is no fraying and it is in completely mint condition.

I love finding clues like this. I wasn't interested in the fitted sheet anyway since I wanted to buy this for use as fabric for my crafty sister. I've seen this pattern on ebay and it appears that the set is from the 80s.

I paid $6 for the sheet and pillowcase, which I thought was a bit steep for a used twin sheet, but I went for it because it was basically brand new.

I really like the brightness of the material and how Mickey is making all these fun faces. =)

Hope everyone's new year is off to a great start! I'm linking up to the the Penny Worthy Project, HLA's Flea Market Finds and ATG's Thrift Share Monday.

Disneyland California Metal Tray

My big sister is in town visiting from California, so I thought it would be fitting to share this old Disneyland souvenir! I found this metal serving tray or plate at a thirft shop and couldn't resist it for the quarter it cost me.

There are no dents nor rusting on the entire plate and the detail is wonderful. It shows a state map of California with landmarks and cities. Mickey and Minnie are sailing over the state on a nice hot air balloon ride... Two bad there weren't six balloons  ;)

All the locations are marked with a Disney character or cute sketch. I will probably be using this as a garden tray for my seedlings as I'll be starting these indoors next month. Hurray for Springtime and longer days! Can't wait to eat a fresh tomato again.

I just wanted to say thanks to all of you reading out there and commenting! I'm so glad you are enjoying my finds. Of course, I'm always excited to read about your adventures and discoveries too. Please become a follower and keep on reading!
