Thrifty Treasures

I found a few things last weekend that I didn’t have time to share, so those are going in here today, as well as a few things I picked up on Saturday, in spite of the rainclouds that hovered over Birmingham all day.  Luckily, it was only misting when I went out bright and early to a neighborhood yardsale at Eagle Point.  I’m sure all the houses weren’t open, but there were plenty of people milling about, even in the inclement weather.  That’s how you can spot a die-hard yardsaler!  🙂

I found this pretty set of framed prints of the French Quarter in New Orleans, $5 for the pair.

Loved these!

All three of these pretty mercury glass balls, which I already have some of, were $4.  I use them at Christmas for decorating.

Larry Levine jacket was $3.  Love the style of it.

My very own tool box, for $2.  It’s a good one and now I can keep my tools organized, instead of strewn all over the house.

Really cute Chico’s skirt for $5, more than I normally pay, but it’s worth it for this brand.  Can you tell I love black and white? 🙂

Sweet little framed crosstitch for hubby’s office of the AL elephant.  Roll Tide!$2.50

Almost 2 yards of this pretty black floral fabric for $2.50, which I’ll use on a porch, if we ever get one.

And last, a pretty aqua ceramic planter for 25 cents!  I’ll definitely plant something in this.

I can’t wait to show you the chair makeover that I did on that cute chair I found a couple weeks ago, remember?!!  Come back this week for the whole story, you’re gonna love it. 🙂

So, now it’s YOUR turn for the party this week! What have YOU found lately. Add your link to the Linky list and remember our guidelines for the party:

  1. Add your permalink to the link list, which is the actual post that you did for this party, NOT your general blog url. To get the actual post, after you publish the post, just click on the title and THAT will be your party post url. Last year, I can’t tell you how many links I had to fix. This year I might get mean & delete them, so PLEASE try to get the correct url in the first time! 🙂
  2. Please add my button to your post or blog OR at least link back to this post in your post. That’s all I ask. It’s common courtesy to link back to the person having the party, so that all of your readers can find it too.
  3. Please do NOT link to an Etsy shop or something similar (even if you think it’s a fabulous deal) or I will delete the link. This party is for sharing thrifty finds from yardsales, thriftstores, or something along those lines.

    Rhoda, love the black and white prints they are wonderful I would have snagged those up also. Are you adding those to your salon wall? I should have posted on your blog today. I forgot about your Thrifting post. I bought a footstool at Big Lots not actually at a thrift store and did a make over on it. I posted on it today. Does it have to be from a thrift store or just a great deal? I guess I had better read the rules. Kathysue

    Rhonda, the fabric is from Hobby Lobby and is a current print there. I’m using it to do new pillows for my couch and possibly cover a rocking chair!! Thought you might want to know in case you need more than you found!
