Goodwill is my new best friend.

Fur Real. I technically didn't do yard sales for her (Southern Hospitality) thrifty post...but I figured it was close enough!

Check out these beauties!
What? You don't think they are pretty? Imagine them with black spray paint...up on the wall by my dining room table....in the new house.

See? Can you see it??? NICE. Still no? Yeah. My sis wasn't too excited about these either.

But she will be. She. Will. Be.

And then she'll be SO irritated that I bought them despite her gnarled lip and furrowing brow.

I also scored a jingle bell wreath (have been wanting and stalking them for YEARS-$2), a lazy susan (that needs some paint and mod podge-$3), this cute table for baby girl's room (it will be painted, of course-$8)
See that cute doll changing table? My sis scored that for Hannah's birthday. $6!

And these:
Oh, how I love them!!! They were randomly placed through the store and I was so excited to keep finding yet another canister...and then another...and then the oil and vinegar jars! AGH! I believe I got all of them for $12. They will greatly aid me in my quest for organizing AND talking hubby in to leaving a few cabinet doors off in our kitchen.

And not to forget the reason I was able to score these deals....Hubby let me have all day yesterday to play with my sis and go shopping. We hit two Goodwills, Sonic Burger (for drinks), and Joann's. I had to buy jute for a project and black enamel paint for this:

PROJECT! love it!! 75% off at Joann's because of one corner that's broken...but fixable! Can't wait to do it....but it will have to wait until we move.

What is the one down-fall of scoring all these deals yesterday? Hubs would say, "It's the money." No, Honey!

I have to pack it all.

Minor detail.

Here's my mom, me, and my sister on Mother's day:

Apparently, great minds think alike, because we ALL wore green. Must be genetic.

Thanks for a great day, Husband! And thanks for going with me, Sis!
