Two Necessary Supplies & Thrifting

February 26, 2012 by Cassie 24 Comments

Today, you can find me at The DIY Club where I am sharing two of my absolute must-have items when it comes to furniture repair and painting.  Here is a preview of those items, but hop over there to see them in use!

Also I wanted to tell you about a thrifting adventure.  After Chris came home Friday he had the rest of the day off, so I got in my car and headed to Chambersburg, PA to hit the Hobby Lobby and collect some knobs.  I also decided to check out the Goodwill and Salvation Army while I was there.  Well, the Goodwill was overpriced, and the Salvation Army shop didn’t even carry furniture!  But I found a couple small things there, and came home with 2 dresses for Spring!  I am going to share one with you, because even though it is cold outside, I was able to layer it and wear it now.  It’s navy, flowy, and has cute ruffles on the sleeves, neckline, and hem.  And the best part is that it was $2.  And I love it!  It’s so comfy!  Sorry for the self portrait… I am so bad at these.

Happy Sunday!  I am off to meet my mom at the movie theater to take her to see “The Vow”and then take her out for Thai food after for her birthday!  This is the greatest gift idea ever, because I get to enjoy myself, too! πŸ˜‰

    Oh, that dress is so cute! Every time I go goodwill shopping, all I find are dresses from the 80’s…big shoulder pads and ugly flower! What a great find. So cute with your tights and boots, too.

    Hope you had fun with you mom! How was the movie?

    So cute! You know, the last few times I’ve gone to Goodwill around here, it’s been really overpriced for furniture as well.

    You are so adorable! Love that dress.
    I wish we had a Hobby Lobby in the Twin Cities. There is everything here, but not a HL??? You actually have to drive 2 hours to the nearest one! UGH!

    Have fun at The Vow and eating Thai food! YUM!

    So cute! I can never find cute clothes at goodwill. And the prices here are outrageous for a goodwill. I’ve seen multiple items where they mark the price higher than the original price! Hope you’ve had a good weekend!

    Very cute dress! I wish I could wear things like this, someone they end up looking like I borrowed someone’s curtains. Too tall I think. You look adorable. Hope you had a fun night with your mom. Happy Late birthday to Mom!
