I haven't been to Goodwill in forever! Since the beginning of summer, at least. So today, after my little Publix trip, I ran in to see what they had!
Found: Adorable cheese dome/board $2.92
Tacky oval Christmas tray 99 cents
2 glass storage jars $1.81 each
Basket $1.81
2 Hardy Boys books for David $1.25 each
spent under $13 with tax for everything!
Now, I know it doesn't look like that much, but give me a few weeks, some spray paint and some holiday or seasonal decor and it is gonna ROCK! That tray will be black, with some burnished edges for holding candles as a centerpiece. The little dome will highlight something beautiful ~ not sure if I will paint the base black or white? The basket will sit on my newly repainted counters to hold dishwashing soap, sponges and such. The jars will be perfect in the pantry. At Walmart, similar jars were $7! And the books will help my little reader read even more! Check back soon as I'll post the finished projects here! Thanks for stopping by!
This blog used to be about our adventures exploring, learning and just having fun! Now I'm an empty nester, single Nana living my absolute best life. So from here on out, on my blog I'll share whatever I believe others may find useful! Thanks for stopping by!

Awesome! I love Goodwill. I don't know which part of town you're on, but the one in Newnan is spectacular! We try to visit on Monday since that's the day they change the color tag to 50% off.
ReplyDeleteHey Candi, my last reply didn't show up, so trying again! I live in NE Gwinnett. Usually hit up the Buford Goodwill, but got all this at Hamilton Mill! LOVE Goodwill, love the colored tags! You're from Alan Jackson country, huh?! SO glad you are here, and thanks for commenting!!
