My goal was to grab a few things from the Wal-Mart's and head back home. No detours
Then I saw that eye catching ESTATE SALE sign… I just couldn’t resist
$20 later I had a car full…
The two bookshelves are not solid wood but at $12 for the pair I couldn’t resist. They do need some paint and a bit of wood glue but other than that they are in great shape. I have been toying on where to put them – entry way – bathroom – flanking the TV – the possibilities are endless
Not to mention I just love the curved legs and the open feel – they don’t seem as heavy and a room weight when they have opened shelves.
Next up I picked up a few of my favorites
I cant ever pass these books up – I LOVE decorating with them and the covers are so stinking cute. Isn't it crazy how patterns seem to resurface? Like the herringbone and damask.
Then I found this cute guy – I thought at $1 he would be great for filling up my new shelves
If he doesn’t work on the shelves then he could always find a home collecting car keys – jewelry – soaps – or even mints. LOVE LOVE LOVE the gold detailing and the whitewashed finish
This guy doesn't count as an estate sale find but it was on clearance at the Wal-Mart's for $3 and its one mighty large bowl. Great for serving!
And just because I can, look at these crazy things I found while grabbing a few must haves
Oh that Wal-Mart – getting creative!
Anyone hit up a good Estate Sale this weekend? Maybe found some lucky finds at the thrift store?
So cute! I LOVE the books you found. I need to start going to those estate/garage sales. I think I would spend all my money.
ReplyDeleteSUNDAYS! Go on Sundays - they mark everything WAY down since its the last day. :) Those books were $0.65 for all 5!
