Back from a very nice Mother’s Day with my family in Atlanta and I’ll share some of that later this week if you’d like to see some pics. I’m still cleaning up the kitchen after being gone for a couple days and you’ll see pics VERY soon! I’m absolutely in love with the new granite. 🙂
In the meantime, let’s get Today’s Thrifty Treasures started…..I’ve got a couple things to share.
Sometimes that great little item just pops up at a yardsale and you have to bring it home. This cute little black desk organizer was only $3 and did I mention it’s black? So, of course it had to find its way to my desk. See those cute little ball feet on it? Love it.
It will be perfect to keep all the papers I have floating around my desk all the time in an organized fashion.
Let me just say one more time. I “heart” yardsales! They will spoil you, that’s for sure.
Found one more little item for my desk area. This cute leopard memo board was $1. This is actually the 2nd one of these I’ve found, so I decided to keep this one (instead of sell it to a friend). It covers up the outlets back here that I’m not using.
And makes a nice backdrop and a perfect spot for adding photos.
Yep, I heart yardsales.
How did you do with the sales this week? It’s time to share with Mr. Linky, so add your link below and let’s get started! Don’t forget to post a link back HERE from your blog too, so everyone can find the party. AND, be sure and post your thrifty post permalink and not just a link to your blog, please!

Such great finds.
RE your new granite… I was just telling DH yesterday, “now that I have it, I’ll never be able to live without it”. If you haven’t fell completely in love with it yet, you definitely will!

Hi, Rhoda! I like your finds. The desktop organizer is great, but the leopard print photo holder makes me smile! You find the best things.

I love your desk organizer. I have a couple of white ones on my desk at work. I love them. I put file folders in one of mine. Thanks for hosting such a fun weekly event. And thanks for visiting my blog & leaving me a comment.

Hi everyone!
This is actually my first time ever posting here, and participating in the “monday’s thrifty treasures” thing!
I visited every single blog posted in that list: WOW!!!
Now I’ve added a TON of your blogs to my google reader, and I’ve added a few images to my ‘inspiration folder’ on my pc!
You are all so inspiring!!
I just started my blog- click on my name and visit the one called Caro’s Thrift Adventures. (I have a couple of blogs: some for scrapbooking, some for photos, etc).

I love, love, love that black organizer!! And I definitely need one, too!! I can’t stop thinking about a few antique store bargains that I’ll have to go back for. Thank goodness for cell phone cameras!!

I am an “R,” too, so I like your initial mug!

I love the organizer! I’m looking for something similar to go on my kitchen counter. I really need to tame the paper pile!
Thank you for always sharing your finds and creativity. I have learned much from you, Rhoda.

Great finds! I was so excited this weekend when I found a white headboard for my daughter’s room AND it was only $20! I found it on CL and it turned out to be in excellent condition. I just had to wipe a few spots with a Magic Eraser.
Nancy says
I love what you found! Like I said, we don’t find such great stuff around here! Still working on the $20 desk!
But I did have a lucky find this weekend. I did the linky, if I did it correctly!
