Garage Sales!

Ok here it is.............My best find this week! I can't believe it! A PERFECT new chair for $20!


I mean not a scratch on it-new!


Pardon the garage walls, but I haven't hauled it upstairs yet.



Vegetable bowl, part of the Liberty series, 2 dollars, blue crock bowl with handle $2, and 2 wicker bottles. Table topper on left new in package 1 dollar.

ORB lantern $4 and lace runner $2.

Well, I went over my $20 self imposed limit this week, but that's ok. It has kinda been my goal to see how much fun I can have on $20. However, I do feel guilty that I buy this stuff, and have not hardly posted on USING any of it yet, which is the whole purpose, right? It is not the purpose to start a junk shop!! Have a good weekend!

I am joining my favorite new party that enables and encourages behavior such as mine. SHAME!

Wow. What a great buy! I'm glad you don't feel guilty, it would be a shame to have to buy the chair and miss the other good finds.

What great finds! That chair is awesome. I, too, will thrift with a small amount intended (but I secretly keep a little more stashed just in case--you never, never know!) Have a great weekend.

What an amazing find on that chair. And you don't even have to do anything to it. I wasn't aware that I wasn't supposed to start a junk shop though? LOL
