Second hand

One of the good things about living in a bigger city is that you can find occasionally interesting things in the second hand store. I sometimes see things that buried in a lot of other garbage, it looks like nothing special, but if you picture it in your home, it might be something nice. I don't like to spend money in things that I don't need, and I always ask myself if, other than not needing it, it could be something special and worthwhile for the price. This way, I have bought little things here and there. A few weeks ago I found some cookie cans. I really don't know what to put in them, they have some buttons and flowers for head pieces that I once was working on, but really they are mostly empty. Still, they look so cute and colorful...that I couldn't resist, and now that I see them around my colorful home, I think it was worth it.

Una de las cosas que tiene el vivir en una ciudad mas grande es de vez en cuando encuentras cosas interestantes en las tiendas de segunda mano. A veces veo cosas enterradas entre mucha basura, y parece que algo nada especial, pero si te lo imaginas en tu casa, puede que si sea algo bonito. No me gusta gastarme el dinero en cosas que no necesito, y siempre me pregunto si, a parte de no necesitarlo, podria ser algo especial y que merezca la pena por el precio. Asi, he comprado algunas cositas aqui y alla. Hace unas semanas encontre unas latas de galletas. No se que poner en ellas, tienen algunos botones y flores que uso para hacer diademas y adornos del pelo, pero la verdad es que estan medio vacias. Aun asi, son tan bonitas y coloridas....que no me pude resistirm y ahora que las veo en mi hogar colorido, me parece que merecio la pena.

Another thing that I do buy in second hand stores are clothes. Usually for Luca. As you may know by now, he has this thing for costumes, and what a better place than a second hand store...he wanted to look like Batman's friend Robin, I got him some green pants and a red sweatshirt....then he wanted to look like a man...I had a tie and today I got him a blazer. It's not easy to find one his size, but if you look everyday, eventually, you find it :)

Otra cosa que compro de segunda mano son ropas. Normalmente para Luca. Como ya debeis saber, tiene esta ilusion por disfrazarse, y que mejor lugar que la tienda de segunda mano...queria parecerse a Robin, el amigo de Batman...le compre unos pantalones verdes y una sudadera roja...luego queria parece un hombre...le puse una corbata y hoy le consegui una chaqueta. No es facil encontrar una de su tamanho, pero si miras todos los dias, al final, la encuentras:)))
