Last week was one of those weeks where there were not too many sales to go to! But I got up and went to two or three anyway. I only bought one thing which is unusual for me! I had been wanting to get an over the door rack for my pantry to hold small items and free up some drawer space. I thought I would have to order it online, and couldn’t believe my luck when I found this one for $2.00! It is perfect for storing zip lock bags, plastic wrap etc!

Just goes to show you that you really never know what you’ll find!

You really never know what you will find at a garage sale or an estate sale! This past weekend, I got up kinda late and didn’t get my usual early start because there weren’t many sales. I went to one sale on Friday late in the morning and bought a library table and pair of earrings. The sale had a mirror that I really loved, but it was so large I didn’t know if I could use it or if I could sell it in one of my booths.

 

My bathroom wall above the garden tub has been needing something for a while:

So, when I went back to pick up the table, I made an offer on the mirror, and couldn’t believe it when she let me have it for $20! So….it is leaned up against the wall now, but will soon be hanging over the garden tub!

Thanks for coming by, and be sure to stop by Rhoda’s at Southern Hospitality for more thrifty treasures!

2nd Time Around: Seeing the Potential in a Thrifty Piece

Sometimes I need a break from all the bargain shopping I do for my Etsy store and my booths. This weekend I took one…but not out of choice. I woke up Saturday thinking I would go to a few sales, but went straight back to bed with a stomach virus! I had picked Cooper up from the baby sitter early one day because he was sick, and seems that I got attacked by the same bug! But, I really didn’t need to buy anything anyway!

So, I don’t have any of my own things to share, but would like to share this chiffarobe that one of the vendors redid as a display case. My beautician offered this piece to me, but it had doors with peeling veneer, and I told her that I would sell it for her. She got rid of the old doors, and painted the inside green with red outside! I think it looks great, and offered to buy it for display! Looks great in her booth displaying vintage linens!

It’s funny how one person can see the potential in something that others miss!
