June garage sale finds

                                                              What can $11.75 buy???

So, I woke up this morning feeling pretty energized, thinking it would be a great cleaning day. Cody needed me to run something out to the mailbox, due to him not wanting to walk out in his boxers for all the neighborhood to see (trust me they would thank us) and because he is still under the weather. I decided to take Rowynn out with me thinking she'd like a little fresh air as well....and then it hit me that it was SATURDAY!!!!! Garage sale day!!!!!

Rowynn and I jumped in the car and hit the road to find us some good deals and some good deals we found.

Here is my first beauty:
 I see these all the time in Ballard designs and Pier One and the other day while I was browsing at Pottery Barn (yes i said browsing) I can't afford that place. I saw a set like these and thought I'd love something like that in the living room to put either candles or those balls of moss you see at like Michael's on them. I found these for (2.00) I think i did a little victory dance, I was so thrilled!!!

I'm going to clean, sand oh so lightly and spray paint them a more espresso darker color to match some of my other decor items. Lets just say I'm so excited for this (nap time) project! =)


Here is No. 2:
Now if you're looking at this picture thinking that doesn't really look like your style Gab, you're right. It's a beautiful painting, but not my taste for my home. I'm going to take the painting out and put my beach print from ShelleyAvrams in it and sand and again spray paint the wood to a darker color to put up in my bathroom, for my soon to be newly re-decorated main bathroom. I'm so excited for this little transformation. If you want this painting please message me because I'd love to see it go to a good home and it's free so just let me know. This cost me a 1.00!! Oh yeah!


Here is No.3:
You can't ever go wrong with having a few extra of these laying around. I'm always wanting to put something on these and you can get them at the dollar store for a buck, but I got mine for .25, so even better. I'm wondering what will be placed on here...hmmm.....


And lastly......
Finds for Rowynn. I got the pink hamper in the back for 2.00. Like (brand new) condition. I got 2 phonic books for 2.00, which I didn't want to pay that much, but if you go to the dollar store you're going to pay that and I like storing up on those books for her. The dolly was free. A lady just thought Rowynn was cute so she gave it to her. That was sweet of her. The pajama outfit to the left of doll and the brand new sweater still has tag on it got both for 4.00. The Tale of Peter Rabbit book was .50. 

So there you have it, my very successful day of great finds.

Happy Saturday everyone!!
