making our house a home | thrifty home decor

I'm always showing off all of my thrifted clothes, but I don't only dress myself with thrifted items, a lot of my home is dressed in thrifted decor!  Here are some of the goodies I've found since we've moved into our house:

My parent's found these bar-stools for us brand new at an auction & scored all 3 for only $80! My mom said they retail for about $150 each

Canvas Picture: Goodwill $3.99
I plan on putting it in our guest bathroom once I find a shower curtain & rug to match

Kirkland's brand new with tags picture in frame: Goodwill $12.00
This picture still had the Kirkland's tag on it that said $59.99!  Then the Goodwill had it marked for $24, but everything in the Goodwill was 50% the day I went in because they were having a moving sale... so it's like I got it for a total of 20% of the original price wow!

  2. I LOVE to shop at Goodwill for home goods! I am totally jealous of those tins from the garages sale, the canvas painting, and the mail holder. I have been wanting one of those :)
