I hope you enjoyed mantel week last week! While I was busy posting those posts last week, I was also busy doing some purging/organizing/rearranging and some projects. So you will see some of those things pop up on the blog in the next few weeks. Today I have a simple spray paint makeover project to […]
Cottage or Coastal themed decorated mantel (1 mantel decorated 5 ways series)
So I saved the best for last Ok, not really but out of all the mantels this is probably my favorite and it is the one currently displayed in my home until I decorate my fall mantel in a few weeks. For one reason because I am still hanging on to those last days […]
Vintage or Eclectic decorated mantel {1 mantel decorated 5 ways series}
Day #3 and mantel #3! Today is more of a collected look – one where you can showcase a few of your favorite things or pieces of your favorite collections. And it has a vintage feel because of the old window, blue ball jars, old grapevine wreath, old Pepsi crate, and antique scale. I used […]
Friday Frugal Finds: pillows, napkin rings, and more décor (+ link-up party!)
Happy Friday! Which means it is time for Friday Frugal Finds again! I found a couple things last week I wanted to share with you. Picked up these napkin rings – 6 white ceramic ones for $1.00 and 4 metal ones for $1.00. I plan to spray paint the gold ones some fun color. At […]
Friday Frugal Finds: the week of 50¢ finds (+link up your finds)
Yard sale shopping has been pretty much non-existent these last few weeks. With the constant rain we have had in south plus being out of town last week, it had been about 3 weeks since I had shopped at a yard sale. Last Saturday the rain let up for a few hours in the morning […]
How to set a pretty table with yard sale finds (tablescape for less than $5.00!)
I think you know by now that I love to set a pretty table. I have been setting our kitchen table with placemats and a simple centerpiece ever since we first got married 10 years ago. Started out with a small table that would only seat two and I had a couple sets of two […]
Friday Frugal Finds: new purse, really nice home décor items, and more! (+link up your finds!)
I had another good week last week hunting down some yard sales. I think it has helped that we haven’t hit many 90 degree days yet here in GA which is rare for June. So yard sales are EVERYWHERE! I have actually been finding some of the best stuff on Friday instead of Saturday. Do […]
Friday Frugal Finds: baskets and more (+link up your frugal finds or makeovers!)
I had another good yard sale shopping weekend last week. (Notice that the thrift store finds have decreased as the yard sale finds have increased. Once yard sales are in abundance, I find my trips to thrift stores getting scarce.) I actually found all of these finds on FRIDAY at a couple good sales. Friday […]
Friday Frugal Finds: pillows, chandelier, home decor, and more! (link up your finds too!)
I had a really good yard sale shopping weekend last week. Sometimes you only find a few things, sometimes you find things specifically on your list and lots of them. I have actually been doing more shopping at individual yard sales this year than I ever have. And although I LOVE my parking lot yard […]
Friday Frugal Finds: games, pillows, and Tupperware + link up YOUR finds!
Here’s my frugal finds from last week. First up Value Village finds. I found these games (I buy them to give as gifts as well as buy games for us when I find one we don’t have.) The Scattergories game by itself was $1.81 and the Scattergories game that was bundled with another game was […]
