Beach Time

My little time at the beach was so relaxing...sat out on the beach...did a tad bit of thriftin'...added a few new items to the condo and went along with Mr.CC to take some pics of a new listing (I will share those with you later this week). The weather was just PERFECT...sunny and temps in the high 70's...can't get any better than this...so out to the beach I go with my umbrella, chair and books...all ready for some awesome beach time! I will be sharing some of my thrifty finds with you later on...today lets see what I added to the condo...come along with me and take a look.
                                                       Enjoy your day and I will
                                                          see ya on Monday at
                                                                      NTT,
                                                                     Linda
                                 Made a stop at our local Tuesday Mornings
                                     and found these PB knockoff pillows.
                             They look just like PB's pillows, but without the
                                 PB price tag...these were $19.99...PB's are
                                   $37.00...so I feel like these were a deal!
                                  The true color does not show well...they
                                                are a light green apple!
                                I added this red monogram to a $1.00 glass platter
                                      that I found while out thrifin' last summer
                                       (monogram was won at a giveaway) so,
                                                       total cost $1.00!
                                                                 
                                    Can't go wrong with a $1.00 decor item!

                                                    I have a thing for burlap
                                                       lampshades...guess
                                                         that's not a bad
                                                                thing!
                                            Still way to COLD for a dip here!
                                             But a dip here...is just fine!!!
                                              See me way up there on the
                                                          8th floor?
                                            My little piece of heaven!!!

    That window with the starfish is really cute. I have to get to Tuesday Morning too so I can look at rugs. I'll be sure to look at the pillows too!

    I love the pillow and monogram Linda!

    I am totally jealous of your weather! It snowed about 6" here this morning. Ugh! A lot has melted, but I heard that they are expecting another storm tomorrow morning...

    Have a great day and enjoy that sun!

    I just had a moment of green eyed envy...I really could use a dose of beach right now. We have too many stressful things going on all at once. It looks so peaceful, I can almost feel the sand under my feet.

    I love the red monogram on the platter...very unique and the color just pops! Pretty!
