I found something this week at Goodwill that shocked my socks off. I embarrassed my teenage daughter I got so excited. I was looking through the magazines, and one after the other, I started pulling out copies of magazines...not just magazines LIKE the ones I had, some of the ACTUAL issues I had from 1983 and 1984. They were mixed in with the the new magazines for 50 cents each!
These are just a few...the "heart throb" magazines still had the posters in them! Can you imagine? And the TEEN' Great Looks special edition was one I completely remembered having.
Yes, that's Sarah Jessica Parker on the left.
I had this poster in my 8th grade locker.
I had another ad printed at Costco...you guessed it, THERMOS!
I framed it with a Pyrex ad at put them in my dining room.
I found this vintage ice cream scoop at a local antique shop for $4 so I could make an ice cream display in my kitchen.
I redid my cart with summer colors

Those magazines are so much fun! I've found one from my childhood (80s) at Goodwill years ago. I wish I could find more. I found a really fun one from the 1970's, Co-Ed?, but there was only one issue. One thing that always surprises me is the lack of magazines at thrift stores... millions upon millions are printed every year. I guess they all get tossed?
I have the very same shortening tin!
If I coukd find a magzinrmwith my heartthrob, David Cassidy, I would be feeling the same way as you, I don't expect it to happen!
I love your ice cream display. It's perfect!

It's so funny when you see magazines from your teenage years. I can always remember reading every word!
I love your ice cream display! So summery! xxx
Loved Dynamite magazine!! I had that same issue. Square Pegs was one of my favourite show back in the day. Your ice cream display is very sweet:)
Oh, I think my middle daughter had that magazine with Sarah J. Parker too. Fun to reminisce. I just found a small plaid cooler this past weekend. I love and collect thermos and plaid coolers. Love your ice cream display with the striped bowls! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
