Shopper's Delight

If you read my earlier post, you'll understand that I have been going through shopper's withdrawl. So, with kids in tow, I hit the shopping network (you all have them, but mine is Target, Marshalls, TJMaxx, Hobby Lobby, and any that might catch my eye for no reason).

My finds are as follows:

I've been eyeing one of these little craft caddies since I saw one in Pottery Barn (where else?) some time ago. SOMEDAY when my project room is done, I will put it on my desk. Until then, it sits on my floor...waiting for a nice home.

Speaking of sitting on the floor, my printer and DVD burner have been doing just that. I went to Meijer and paid 29.99 (not $30) for this little table. I put it together myself and voila! The best part is that I went to a thrift store (thanks Kimba) to see if I could have gotten a better deal, and they had old, beat up ones for $30.00! I got mine for waaaayy cheaper than that!Now for my find of the day. I was looking for a white platter to complete my hutch decor in the dining room. I saw this one, but it was pretty dinged up.
However....it was only .70 cents!! That's right folks, not only did I get a great deal on the plate, but my camera does, in fact, take crappy close up pictures!
The chips don't really matter because now you see them....
Now you don't. Anyone looking much closer than that is gonna notice my three inches of dust waaay before they see the chips in the plate.
Please note: The floral chair in the corner is because my husband has "ican'tgettothatrightnow" disease. I've asked him to move it for weeks, but therapy and medications take some time to kick in, I guess.I didn't get my apothecary jars, but I did get my seashells washed and put on display from Florida. We found all of them except for the star fish. I think we must have hit the motherload! I could say the sand was what was left over from all of our bathing suits, but I just stole it in ziploc baggies from the beach. My husband made us run back to the car. We're felons.
