Bargain Hunting . . .

We do not like to pay full price for anything, and when we get it for next to nothing its even better!

Awhile back we had seen some of these items at Hobby Lobby, loved them, hated the price! There were a couple different pieces and they ranged from $50-$70 and even with our 40-50% coupons it was not cheap enough! So we waited, and waited, and waited some more and finally they were marked down and then got marked down even more.

Here is one of the pieces:











As you can see one of the little knobby things on the bottom had been broken off, BUT it was still with it so with a little glue that was easily fixed!!

This is mid-project:










Glue, paint, and some decoupage! (I am starting to see a pattern with our posts)

Finished:










That basket in the middle isn't the current one Mom (Wendy) has in it but we needed to fill it with something at the time for the picture!!

We actually have a couple more pieces of the same collection that Mom re-did but she has those pictures on her camera so you are just going to have to wait until I get them to see the rest!!

These are all going in our Shabby (Guest) Craft Room at Mom's house, if we ever stop our projects long enough to actually organize that room will put some pictures up. But please don't hold your breath for those!!
