Thrifty Finds | Episode 2


     I am a thrift store junkie. I love thrift store shopping and almost always find some goodies. Yesterday I went to a local Goodwill to find a cheap art frame to turn it into a chalkboard sign, but as I was browsing, an employee set out a white framed chalkboard. Excatly what I wanted to make in the first place! And it was only $4!




     Later I may add some light grey paint to the edges and inner crevices to give it some depth.. It's perfect for our weekly memory verses..

     Along with the chalkboard I still picked up another frame to turn into a chalkboard for the future mantel.. I plan on making a faux fireplace for the upstairs living room..


     Also picked up a sparkly teal throw and a pretty mint wall tapestry..


     The throw went on the white sofa in the upstairs living room.. love the teal on white!!



So pretty... I love it!


     Not sure yet where I'll hang the tapestry. Maybe as a curtain in one of the kids rooms.. they all have baseboard heaters right under the windows so I can't hang anything long.. or maybe I'll hang it as a tapestry in the play room.


     Isn't it lovely??! I think it combines modern and farmhouse really well..


     I also picked up this beauty on the side of the road. It's got so much potential, I can't believe someone threw it away!! I'm going to make it look fabulous!



What do you think of my thrifty finds?
