My Deals this Week!

Just wanted to share some of my recent Goodwill and yard sale finds! I've always loved to shop, but I'm so into second hand bargains lately!

I found this plate at Goodwill. Won't it be even prettier with a cake on it?! :)

Thought I'd try some ribbon going through all the holes... I think it's cute!

I love serving dishes! White is probably my favorite with clear not far behind.

A couple vases...


I am planning on redoing my kitchen (walls and cabinets and countertops) in the next few weeks; these are some things I found that I plan to use in the "new" kitchen. I'm going with red, black, and white by the way.

Big plate from Goodwill... I looove this pattern!!


Small red vase:


Pottery Barn picture frame also found at Goodwill:


This Norman Rockwell metal picture came from a consignment shop:

I think I'll hang it in the back entry/hallway that leads to my kitchen.

Scrapbook from Goodwill; I've been wanting one for the pages I've done for Caden:


Speaking of Caden, I also found some things for him, but nothing new there. :) He loves Thomas the Train! This is Thomas, James (red), and Percy (green); James and Percy go when you press the engineer's heads. His Aunt Brandy had just bought him the Thomas one like these.


And a few books from Goodwill and the same consignment shop as the Norman Rockwell picture.


So I spent between $10 and $12 and got allll that! I'm still happy about everything!! I got a couple other things too but am saving them for some before and after posts.

Thanks everybody for stopping by and reading!

*Fun parties I'm linking to*

  5. You did score at Goodwill! Great finds. The Goodwills where we live are always PACKED so it is hard to find good stuff sometimes.

    Also, Sorry that it is KY and not GA. But this place might just be worth the drive! lol

  11. You racked up! I LOVE Goodwill and yard sales, but the closest Goodwill to my house is 45 mins. away. :( I think my favorite of your finds would have to be the scrapbooking book for Caden. Thank you for stopping over at my place! I'd love to try your dip, if you are willing to give the recipe out.

  14. Wow! Some really great finds. I actually have the white plate you put the ribbon through... but I paid full price for it 4 years ago from Southern Living at Home. Still, though... I love it! : )
