Nifty Thrifty Tuesdays No.11

Hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend...I know I did...I even got a little bit of thriftin' time in during this busy time. I went out early Saturday and was lucky to find a couple of great sales...one was a estate sale and the other was a sale that I think was being held by a owner of a salvage store that carries a lot of items from TARGET...got some awesome buys there. This weeks project is installing my NIFTY THRIFTY curtains in my screen porch...so be sure to check back later in the week to see what idea that I came up with...I think you will like it!Old soup tureen...found this at a estate sale for only .50 cents! Some of my ideas for it are...storing hand towels...displaying silver flatware or maybe plant some flowers in it. Do you have any ideas for my .50 find?Luv these cute "palm tree" invites...I bought two boxes for only $2.00 each...these retail for about $20-$25 at TARGET!Only .50 cents for each box...I went a little crazy buying lots of invites...looks like we will be doing some entertaining here at COASTAL CHARM!Such cute baby shower invites...also only .50 cents!

Dressing Her Up

Last week while I was in my favorite Target location (our store at the beach is soooo awesome...always find the best deals there)...I found a really cute little pewter lamp on clearance for only $4.99...so I just had to have it! I knew she would look great in my kitchen with all the pewter hardware and light fixtures...so now she calls my kitchen her new home. I already had this pretty little shade, but I thought I would dress it up a little bit with some jute and one of these "stinkin cute" little flowers that are all over blogland...got out some extra fabric left over from my new kitchen curtains and a covered button and went to town...dressing her up! I should be cleaning house, but instead I'm crafting away...I have almost forgot how much FUN it is...I guess you could say that I've got the CRAFT BUG!
