Yesterday Emmy had gymnastics. The class lasts 1 hour and I can drop her off or stay if I wish. She prefers for me to go run errands… I think she gets more nervous with me watching her! I was like that as a child, too. So I had an hour on my hands and no plans… What to do? Where to go? Goodwill of course! i hadn’t been out thrifting in quite some time since I have been getting orders completed, so I was excited for the opportunity to go!
At Goodwill I found this table for $12, and this old shelf for $12.50. I love its chippy green paint and can see this filled with pots on a porch. I am going to add a p;oy to it to prevent any more paint from chipping, and then it will travel to Lucketts with me in May.
I couldn’t take the bookcase with me because I had to go back and get Emmy, but they bent the rules and let me come back and get it today. When I was finished there, I headed to the Salvation Army to scope out anything worth coming back for today (when furniture is 30 percent off). Um, yes please. I found this dresser and mirror for 64.99 before the disccount. And when I arrived today it was there, and just waiting for me to take it home. I love the details and hardware on this one!
While there, I also found this guy for 99 cents! He is sitting on a cabinet near my kitchen. (I am considering repainting the cabinet, thus all the paint chips!)
