The 18 inch metal star wreath and wall sconces were $1 each.
The picture I actually got at Goodwill for a buck a few weeks back. It had a red frame that was just the wrong color red. So I painted it black and sanded the edges. It will go perfectly with the rest of this decor.
Another sampler I got at a thrift store will go well with her larger sister.

This large red platter was $2. I can't believe how well she matches the bowl I already had on top of my fridge!
I got this frame at the book store about a month ago where my mother-in-law works. It was on clearence plus with an employee discount it wasn't much (about 70% off)

you highlight the word that you want to link with, then on the toolbars you'll find the "link button" on the left side of "align-left-button." The link button is like a green globe with the link symbol on it. Then you type the URL (example: http://mpr-spicesofmylife.blogspot.com/)
ReplyDeleteHope you get it.

ReplyDeleteTell your hubby that you scored BIG!! Sisters all over the country are envious of your good fortune. hehehehe
ReplyDeleteHi Arlene,
ReplyDeleteThis is my first time participating in Rhonda’s event and I am having so much fun seeing everyone’s neat stuff. I used to live in Portland so not to far from you (I think). I love your finds, but my favorite is how you used the toile ribbon to hang the wreath from. That wreath is really neat by itself, but the toile makes it striking.

Wow- those deals are AMAZING!! You found some great stuff at that one sale a couple weeks ago - what sweet friends to call you over! I can't believe there was still stuff there at those prices!!
ReplyDeleteI blogged about clothes for my boys found at yard sales this week :) I LOVE getting their clothes for so cheap - no worrying about pricey stuff getting ruined and yet they look like we spent lots of money on their clothes :)
The post was originally posted on Friday, so you'll have to scroll down a bit to see it :)
Great finds! And I see you got the link figured out. When you want to put a blog url in there, just copy & paste it in the blank after you highlight the word or words you want linked. Easy, peasy! Thanks for playing this week.
ReplyDeleteAll great finds, and I like the story of the transformation of your house that you have on your sidebar!
ReplyDeleteWow, what wonderful finds!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog header--especially the way your cake plates are displayed.
I enjoyed visiting your blog!
