There is a flea market near Jed's weekly homeschool class

and I've enjoyed browsing in there before picking him up in the afternoon.

They have surprisingly good prices and a big variety of sellers and items.

The unusual shape of this mirror caught my eye...

I thought it was a magnifying glass and I could sure use one of those these days.  :)

I was a little horrified to find it was a magnifying mirror...

as if I want to magnify anything on my face to that extent!

However, it did occur to me that it might be helpful when applying makeup

because I can't do that with my reading glasses on

and I can't see close-up without my reading glasses on.

It's been way more helpful than I would ever have thought...

now I can't imagine how I've gotten along all these years of far-sightedness without it.  :)
Plus it was only a couple dollars more than a plastic mirror at Wal-Mart.
I love old stuff!
