thrifting!

So it's been awhile since I updated...a month to be exact. I knew with the last post that I would jinx myself about everything being so perfect. Went to the beach with the family, it was wonderful, dont get me wrong, but I was pretty miserable the whole week! I woke up with a swollen face and hives the first morning. So I was on prednisone and benadryl for the whole week. Not my idea of a great vacation, but I managed! It was great to be with the family though :)

Anyways, so today I went thrifting with my college roommate! She's an expert at finding great things for super cheap! I had wanted some things for the house so we set out looking. I found an entry way table (which I have wanted for forever) and a side table! We found them at the DAV for $39 for both! It was a steal! I went to wal-mart and got some paint (they have a "reject" paint shelf where you can buy paint that has already been mixed that people don't want.) So I found the perfect color there for $4.50 a gallon! Crazy I know! So I spent the afternoon painting my entry table and tada! It turned out exactly as I had wanted!




I was very happy about my purchase! $20 total for the table and paint. I absolutely love it! I love finding great things for the house!

Anyways, guess that's it for now, just a quick update. The fiance is on a fishing trip in VA beach so I'm hanging with the pup tonight watching chick flicks :)

Until next time :)
