Thrifty Finds

Today I decided to stop at a garage sale that was in it's second week.  You know the kind... not much great stuff left, but practically giving everything away.  There wasn't anything SUPER great, but I did pick up a few things - for a total of only $4.00!!!! 


A little desk light that I figure will look cute with a coat of Heirloom White spray paint. Their dog chewed off the cord, so I was able to pick it up for the low, low price of $.20!!
Four sterling silver spoons and a relish fork.  ($.10 each)
Two white vases and one glass top. Yes, I know the glass top does not belong on there - it's only on there for the picture. I figured at $.10 I couldn't pass it up. The vases were $1.00 for the pair.
Cute little bottle which can easily be fixed up with a picture from the Graphics Fairy and maybe a little twine.  $.10
Nice little clock - $1.00
Roll of textured vinyl wallpaper.  I know of several projects I can use this on. -  $.10
I needed a basket for some towels in my bathroom.  I think this will work nicely.  $1.00

We're getting closer to actually USING all these things as my remodeling is starting to come together.

  1. Wow. Great finds!
    I'd say it was well worth the stop. I love how you see such potential in things.
