Wow, thank you ALL for showing up for the giveaway. Ya’ll sure wanted you some pretty glasses and I can’t say that I blame you. I’m so glad you enjoyed My Sparrow and took a look around, some beautiful things in her shop, for sure. So, now for the giveaway winner: Megan with Cottage Bluebird is our winner! Megan, please email me and send me your mailing address and I’ll pass your info on to Christina, so you can get those beautiful tumblers.
It wasn’t a terribly exciting yardsale weekend, but I found a few useful things, like these green acrylic glasses for 25 cents each. I think they match that pitcher I found recently too.
Always on the lookout for good books, this is one I haven’t read by one of my fave authors. I may save it for our beach trip that’s coming up in September. There’s nothing better than sitting on the beach reading a good book. We decided to wait til school starts and take our beach trip later this year.
And I love to find workout clothes in great condition for cheap. These 3 Nike workout tops were $1 each, much better than paying even TJ Maxx prices and these are all in near perfect condition. I will put them to good use very soon. And last for this week, an Eddie Bauer denim skirt for $3. I have a few Eddie Bauer pieces and they are very well made and great quality. Just my size too. They all got washed in the washing machine as soon as I got home and then into my closet.
So, that’s it for me this week. Oh, and remember that Sid Dickens tile I found a couple weeks ago for $3?? Sold it on Ebay for $147, quite a turn around, don’t you think?
I’ll have a few more posts this week and then we are heading up to my parent’s house in NC for a few days. Eating veggies and visiting. I hear tell we are having a fish fry with homemade ice cream one day. Yippee! 🙂

Hi Rhoda,
Thanks so much for coming by my beach house chic dining room. It was so much fun to do.
I always have a hard time waking up early on week day mornings to walk with my neighbors, but come Saturday mornings, I’m up at 7 a.m., fresh as a daisy ready to hit the garage sales. … hmmmm…. Great finds for you this weekend and good for you for using Ebay to make a little greeen!
Leanne says

Rhonda says
I have read or listened to every one of Grishams books, I truly enjoyed them all and I don’t like to be a spoil-sport, but The Appeal was my least favorite -and if I say more it will give away the ending.
I do like your denim skirt – what a deal.
Gigi says
Love the skirt and glasses! Great finds, Rhoda! Quick decorating question. I have a small side table I want to paint black. Do you prefer spray paint or just painting it with a brush? What have you found that works best?
Kristen says
I love the green glasses and congrats on the nice sale too!!
The sports bras were a fab deal as well!
Erin says
I added mine! I hope it works! Love your blog!

I think we were friends in another life. I always take a John Grisham book to the river every summer.
