wire basket stand

i found SO many great things today at the d.i.!

i thought this stand was pretty cute. i'm thinking it will be great for easter to put some fun eggs in it, but i'm also thinking of spray painting it, (maybe black?) so that i can use it more year-round.

what do ya'll think?


wire basket stand: $3



make sure to check back in the next couple of days! i've got lots of fun things to share!

upholstered chair

while i was out shopping on saturday, i found a really fun blue chair at the d.i. for $15 that had a great shape but the fabric wasn't in the best condition and i left wondering if i should have just bought it and worked on it.

well, i decided to stop at the salvation army which was the next block down from the d.i. and i'm so glad i did! i found this BRAND NEW upholstered chair for $50 which was WAY more than i wanted to spend, but since it was a little wobbly (nothing the handy husband can't fix) i talked them down to $30!

it goes so well with everything else in my living room! i LOVE it!


upholstered sitting chair: $30

more milkglass

obviously i can't get enough of this stuff! i found these beauties at the salvation army yesterday, priced at a dollar a piece, but the cashier, who called me "hon" gave them to me for just 50 cents each!


milkglass vases: 50¢ a piece



p.s. stay tuned for tomorrow's post! i'll be posting one of my favorite finds to date!

bakeware!

for some reason i seem to gravitate toward fun colored tins and i just love the colors of both this bundt cake pan and flan mold.

the flan mold also came with a recipe! pretty sure i won't be making flan anytime soon, but you can bet i'll find something fun to make in it!

colored baking tins: $1 a piece








i have been in dire need of some mixing bowls for awhile. when i found this cute brown one last night i snatched it up quick!

donut phone

my husband and i have always loved items from the 60's and 70's, but since we've started watching 'mad men' we've fallen even more in love with them.

i found this phone this morning and about died! not only is it in perfect condition, but it actually works!

i'm in love!
