My latest finds

Hi guys, remember me? Ya, I know, it's been a while. Here has how my last month has gone: me sick, me sick, Coral sick, me sick, Coral sick, me sick. It hasn't been fun my friends. I have felt house bound, missing a month of care group, and moms and tots (isn't that just how it goes though? Once your feeling better, the baby gets sick, making you still house bound). But with this hot spring weather we have been having, I am bound and determined for us to get healthy and feel good. In the mean time, let me share with you my latest finds.

Yes, even when I'm feeling sick, I still get the urge to go thrift store hunting. My Value Village finds:




Who doesn't love Veggie Tale books? They teach Coral about God, and at the same time teach her about opposites, ABCs, numbers, shapes, and letters. An excellent find.




A duck, duck, goose game for Coral. She loves it. She drags that goose all over the place. A really cute board game for little ones.




How could I pass this up? Make-believe cowboys anyone? Or I guess I should say cowgirl.

Ok and here is my latest Home Sense finds. Now I know it's cheating a little bit, because it's not second hand, but I have to be honest with you friends, sometimes buying second hand isn't cheaper. Especially with Value Village I have found that I can get dishes and decor for cheaper at Home Sense.




New plates for my open shelving.




An aqua pot to do some roasts in.




And my tree. Oooooh the tree. I love it. And it fits right in with my decor.





Annd my best finds of all, are from the thrift store in my home town, Port Rowan. This place sells vintage dishes for pennies! I can get books for a dime! I never leave the place empty handed.




I got these canisters all for two bucks! Not bad eh.




I was in need of some new dishes, so I got a whole set of them for $4.00! Oh how I love that thrift store.

And lastly, we have a new table and chairs set. We got them for free from my parents, which they got when they moved into their new house.




This is a project for when I'm feeling completely better. No, I'm not going to paint it. It's antique so if I paint it, it loses it's value. I am however going to give the seats some new fabric. Someday.

That's all for now. Time to get my cushions out on my patio furniture and enjoy this beautiful weather.
