Yesterday, after being sick Sunday and Monday..... I was clearly needing to get out and do my thing. I headed to Goodwill to unwind. I get a great deal of pleasure of just looking, even if I don't buy anything. I always see something I like, but I don't always buy. That would be back to the hoarding issue, right? I did find a couple of treasures I couldn't live without.
This little bunny caught my eye and for $2.99, I had to have it. The color was a perfect match for my brown kitchen.
For now...it's new home is on my bakers rack in the kitchen.
I'm also still working on my laundry room decor. I was so wanting to have the laundry room completed by Thanksgiving, but I seriously doubt it's going to happen. You would think this small room would not be such a big deal, but it clearly is. All I see is 2 book shelves....a fridge, washer, dryer, cabinet and shelves to be moved...not to mention the patching that needs to be done. Sighs. There just needs to be more of me. I am slowly collecting things to use in there and when I came across this at Goodwill...no doubt, I had to have it.
Are these not the cutest little froggies you ever did see? They are a heavy iron metal and each foot will be used to hang my daycare bags on.
Remember these plates?
There are 4 of them. These are also a Goodwill find. I thought these would look nice displayed on the wall above the little frogs. I only have one wall available for some decor and I want to take full advantage of it.
With the Thanksgiving holiday approaching, my mind has been in a million circles. I have just a bit more grocery shopping to do and this weekend I will pull together my schedule. This year I will be having our dinner late afternoon, which gives me the day to relax and not feel so rushed. I haven't yet decided what desserts I will be making. It's driving me insane! I did find a pumpkin mousse dessert that I may do, but with having pumpkin pies...it might be an overkill in the pumpkin corner. A chocolate cake for sure and my menu is set in stone now. I shared that with you in an earlier post here.
I've been slowly knocking out Christmas gifts. I have several sites I follow and they have not let me down. I've purchased some really good deals so far this year. I can remember one year having everything purchased by Thanksgiving. It's not going to happen this year for sure! I can only hope the sites I follow continue to provide me with ultimate deals.
Here's a few I follow:

These sites have never failed me. You can cha-ching on the deals all day long, I promise!
Love your bunny dish. You always find the best things at GW.
ReplyDeleteThat really was a find. The bunny is adorable. This is the first time to your blog and it is cahrming. I found you on Table Top Tuesdays. So glad I came.
