Fixer Upper Style Master Bedroom Reveal

October 12, 2017 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

I am so excited to finally reveal our newly updated Master Bedroom.  This has been months in the making!  I shared bits and pieces of the progress a few months back here and here but today I am sharing a quick video…my first ever!

One of our goals for 2017, which I shared here, was to add hardwood floors upstairs. Well, we finally did it.  The floors were installed in early September and last week the final paint touch ups were completed.  I am so happy we made the move from carpeting upstairs to wood floors.   I liked having the carpet when the boys were little and we didn’t have a puppy running around  but I absolutely love the wood floors!  Enjoy my first video and we will chat about the details after!

Fixer-Upper Style Master Bedroom Reveal

 

I am loving the transformation.  The hardwood floors make all the difference in the world!  We matched them with the downstairs  flooring which is a 5 inch hand scraped hickory. The hickory is a very warm tone which keep the wood from appearing too cold.

Master bedroom reveal and a fixer upper style shelf

Here’s a quick rundown of everything we did.

  • added hardwood
  • built a shelf using a 2×10 stained to match vintage chest at foot of the bed.  Shelf is attached using Simpson Strong Ties from Home Depot which I sprayed black
  • new gun-metal bed found at a local consignment shop
  • painted dresser, night stands, mirrors and lamps with Amy Howard One Step Paint
  • added an area rug from IKEA
  • hung wall sconces from Wayfair

I got the idea of the shelf above the bed from an episode of… you guessed it …The Fixer Upper.  It was the on season 4 episode 16.  As soon as I saw it I knew I wanted to do my version of it above our bed.  Such an easy projects with a big impact.  I did something similar in the sitting room.

The area rug is from IKEA.  This is actually two area rug that I placed together.  I used the recommended rug pad from IKEA which feels a bit tacky/sticky and it keeps the two rugs together and stays in place.

Sitting Room with Fixer Upper Shiplap and new Hardwood flooring

I shared the sitting room before but I wanted you to see the difference the hard wood makes in here.  EEK, I LOVE IT! The chairs are the same ones I bought when I was pregnant with my first boys.  I had them reupholstered.  They are in fantastic shape and are super comfy.  I added the same IKEA rug in here to help keep the two room cohesive. I also added the ottoman from IKEA ektorp series. You can see a small stand on the fireplace hearth…a GoodWill find.  This is kind of  totally my space!

GoodWill credenza and DIY Shelving

I love this credenza I bought from Goodwill for $40.  I gave it a quick coat of paint and added my DIY shelves above it.  Almost everything on the shelves are treasures I found at Goodwill.

I hope you enjoyed my Master Bedroom Reveal and my first ever video.

Until Next Time,

A Recap and a Sneak Peek: Paris and Projects

May 22, 2017 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

Hello all. It has been forever and a day since I have done a post.  I have started so many projects and have even completed a few.  I am trying to get myself organized and get back on track and keep you all updated on what I have been working on recently.

I feel like there has been so much going on around here.  My husband went on two golf trips which for me means…painting inside and not in the garage.  Nothing like painting furniture in the comfort of my home while watching repeats on HGTV.  I will post about these projects soon, I promise!

We also took a trip to Paris over Spring Break.  Perfection, that’s all I can say. I loved everything about being there. We rented an apartment for a week on the Isle of St. Louis which was centrally located and within walking distance to most sights and close to the metro.  One of the highlights for me was going to the Marche’ aux Puces…The Flea Markets.  Love at first sight! It was fabulous… all these little shops in alleyways, and tent like structures.  I could have spent several days browsing but felt lucky that my guys managed several hours walking aimlessly with me through all the wonderful vintage loveliness. I bought some handle for a tray that I will eventually get around to making… something similar to my Feasting Tray.

One of my son’s favorite spots was Shakespeare and Company.

The coziest bookstore with lots of history Shakespeare and Company

I have to say I loved this little spot as well.  It was the coziest little bookstore, a great place for book lovers  and aspiring writers.  My husband surprised me with a few gifts from there for Mother’s Day ( I will share more on that in a later post) which doesn’t include the books Gman and I purchased on one of our three trips there. We also stopped in and had breakfast at the little café next door the following morning.

We hit as many of the hot spots as we could cram into our week in Paris.  It was such a great trip!

Shortly after we flew home we traveled to our oldest son’s graduation from college.  I am still in shock that we are at this point in our lives.  We (mainly the boys not me) moved him out of his college apartment into his new apartment which lucky for me is close to us.  He has slowly been moving his things out of his bedroom here at home into his apartment as well.  I love that he can stop by for dinner or just visit at any time.

Graduation

Celebrating graduation

Within a few short months, we are only going to have our youngest at home with us. Our middle guy is heading off to finish his degree in August, so he will be moving out too. I am thankful that they will all still be pretty close to home! It won’t be the same though and the house is already feeling quiet.

This weekend we are going to have our families here for a celebration and a cook out which I am looking forward to a good time!

Projects in the Works

Now for a little sneak peek of a few of the projects I have been working on over the last few months.

Painting goodwill finds

Staining some wood and making a shelf

 This is the chaos I create when my husband is out of town.  I have completely revamped our master bedroom and the sitting room off of the master.  I have also worked on the Gman’s room by painting his furniture and adding a faux fireplace! I will share the plans for the faux fireplace and the finished project as well.

Goodwill and our local consignment shops have been good to me over the past few months.  I have picked up a lot of great pieces from furniture to mirrors and a lot of bits and pieces that helped pull things together. I was also able to pick up a few pieces for the outside.

Fingers crossed…next week I will share a bit more!  It’s good to be back.

Until Next Time,

How to Decorate with Goodwill Bargains to Create an Eclectic Look

January 14, 2017 By stylishrevamp 4 Comments

Hello and Happy New Year.  Gosh, is it too late to even say that now.  I have been slacking here on the posting but I do have a 1000 different projects running through my brain. Hopefully, some of the larger projects, we will get to later on in the year but for now I thought I would kick of the start of this year by sharing some of my latest Goodwill finds and how I use them in our home to create an eclectic look.

Today I am sharing how I use my Goodwill bargains to create an eclectic look in our home.

So you all know that I love bargain shopping and my all time favorite place is Goodwill.  The fact that it is seconds away from the gym is just an added bonus for me. I kind of feel like if I go to the gym and pound it out, I should treat myself.  Yes, I am pretty good at justifying things like that!  You know another reason I like Goodwill…everyone there from the staff to other customers, are so friendly.  Last week, another customer purchased my two items for me and told me to have a blessed day.  You have to wait until next Christmas to see what these two items were…She wanted to now why I was buying said items and how I was going to use them and we got to talking and she ended up buying several of them as well and thanked me for the ideas!

O.k. on to my latest bargains.  I found another Target Salvage item this week that goes with some of my other office accessories to  complete the look.

I found this wooden letter tray at Goodwill. It is another Target Salvage find and I love it!

Target Salvage from Goodwill.

How to Decorate with Goodwill finds to Create an Eclectic Look

I like mixing my wood pieces with all of my gold touches throughout the room. The wood is a bit rustic and the gold accents add a bit of glam which to me creates an eclectic look.

While I was at Goodwill, I also found another silver ice bucket. I am always on the look out for these.  I like to use them as planters which I have shared before here.  I like the look of  silver ice buckets, they kind of remind me of the old trophies.

I like collecting silver ice buckets to use as planters.

My silver ice buckets from Goodwill serves as a cheap planter that adds a bit of glam and sparkle.

(notice the bright yellow crow bar on the window ledge…my middle son got this for me for Christmas, he knows me so well!!)

The final Goodwill treasure I am sharing is this sweet little ceramic candle holder.  For mere pennies, I couldn’t leave it behind.

My Goodwill creamy white ceramic candle holder.

I love little treasure like this one.  To me, it’s a one of a kind.  Most likely, you will not find this exact piece at any other store. I believe by shopping at Goodwill and other consignment shops, thrift stores and local fairs help create an eclectic look in our home.  Not only does it help create the look that I love but it is always great to create a look that I love on a budget!

Thanks for stopping by, I hope your new year is off to a great start.

Until Next Time,

Adding Fall Touches to your Home

October 20, 2016 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

We are adding simple Fall touches to our Home.

Today it is all about Fall.  This year I am keeping it super easy by adding simple fall touches to our home.  Last year I sorted through all my decorations and donated most of the ones that did not hold special memories for me.  When the boys were little they loved decorating for the Halloween.  This year it is more about Fall rather than Halloween.

Fall Home Tour 2016

This simple wooden Welcome acorn is on our entryway table.

In the kitchen, I added a few pumpkins including the one my youngest made in preschool.  He is now 13.

2016 Kitchen Fall Home Tour

I also added a Pumpkin Fairy to my wreath.  The pumpkin beside the wreath is the one my son made…out of a roll of toilet paper. He was very excited by this when he was 4 years old which makes me want to save it forever.  I love the ages they all are now but sometimes I really miss that age when everything was so exciting for them.

Next, we head to the dining room.

Using chalkboard art to decorate for Fall/Halloween

I made the chalkboard banner a few years ago.  You can check it out here.

I added the cotton wreath to this chair for added texture. I also like the tone on tone with the chair colors of white, cream and tan that pick up the same colors in the wreath.

In the family room, I switched out my red pillow for orange pillows and I added a few pumpkins.

2016 Family Room Fall Tour(Notice the greenery, yep that is my poinsettia…it is still alive. Although, I have no idea if it will turn red again!)

I like the added orange touches to this room. I will switch back to red in December and possibly add a new one to the mix! I am into throws and pillows at the moment!

The pumpkin on the end table is another favorite.  My older two boys picked it out about 17 years ago.  It is one I pull out each and every year.  The same goes for the pumpkin below, it’s another one the older two boys picked out.

Foyer Fall Home Tour

The final room I added a few Fall touches to is the Sunroom. I love this room.  It is where we spend most of our time.  It is just a very comfortable space.

Pigs, pumpkins and tobacco baskets

Talk about simple, the tobacco baskets and the pig were already there.  I plopped the pumpkin down with the intentions of painting it cream or white (like you see all over Pinterest) at some point but I can tell that is not going to happen. Besides I am kind of loving the pops of orange throughout the house.

 That my friends wraps up our Fall Home Tour, I hope you have enjoyed this glimpse into our home.

Until Next Time,

Why I Like Shopping at the Vintage Market

September 18, 2016 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

Last weekend I stopped by a local Vintage Market Place called GypsyFaire.  A friend had mentioned it to me, so I decided to check it out with my husband.  It was awesome!  I cannot believe I have never been and it is literally 15 minute away.

I love shopping at Vintage Markets. I always walk away with something unique.

You all know that I love shopping vintage and consignment shops and places like this is one of the reasons why I like shopping at Vintage Markets. It had so many unique pieces.  I love when you can find pieces that are different, one of a kind pieces and simply put… Fabulous.  I could have spent hours walking through the market but I had my husband with me. Next time, it will be a girls trip.  Even though it was a quick walk thru of the market, it was very successful!

I have been on the lookout for a nice fireplace tool set and finally found one for our outdoor fireplace. It is a nice heavy cast iron set. This piece will be perfect outside.

Fireplace Tools

I have been on the lookout for a set like this one for a long time.  We have an outdoor fireplace that we like to use but every time we would have a nice fire roaring, the person manning the fire would always use a stick to poke around at the logs. Not that there is anything wrong with that but I guess I was feeling nostalgic.  My dad always used a fireplace tool set to poke at the fire when I was younger.  I feel like the older I become, the more I want pieces of my childhood in my home.

I have found many sets at Goodwill and a few at some antique shops. They were either too expensive or not conducive to the outdoors. The fireplace tool set we found at the Gypsy Faire is solid forged iron.  It was so heavy, I had trouble lifting it.  This is perfect for the elements outside.  I won’t have to worry about it being knocked over every time the wind blows and I won’t have to watch the males in this household poking the burning logs with a twig ever again!

So once we found the fabulous fireplace set, which I might add was about 6 minutes into the market, my hubs was quickly heading to the check out line. He kindly said I could continue looking around but I kind of felt the pressure to move it along.

Finding Unique Pieces

I did manage to snag two other pieces that I adore. First up is this vintage door knob photo holder.

I love this vintage door knob that has been repurposed into a lovely photo holder.

Isn’t this piece delightful?  I think it is absolutely charming! My favorite thing at the moment is displaying snapshots throughout the house in unique little holders and this one is spot on…perfection.

Vintage Door Knobs

photo-holder-made-from-a-door-knob

As my husband was moving rapidly to the front of the check out line, I was able to scoop up something I had had my eye on since we first walked into the market.  I don’t know about you but sometimes it is hard for me to shop for seasonal items (except Christmas items) when it seems to early in the season for it. Case in point…this pumpkin.

I am loving this decorative rusty metal pumpkin candle holder.

I loved it when I first saw it but it was 98 degrees outside, I was sweating like I had just completed an intense workout (which I had not) and it was the first weekend in September.  I know Pinterest has been full of pumpkins and Autumn Home tours lately but I think I will wait until October or at least the last week of September!

As my husband inched closer and closer to the front of the line, I thought last chance and I grabbed it! I am so happy that I did.  This rusty pumpkin will fit in quite nicely in my home this Fall.

The GypsyFaire opens the first weekend of each month.  I am sure this trip was the first of many to come.

Until Next Time,

My Small Obsession with Bargain Shopping

August 25, 2016 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

It is no secret that I love to go thrift shopping.  Everyone has their own little thing, my husband loves to golf.  I love to bargain hunt, dig through junk, search for that item I never even knew that I wanted!  It’s just something that I like to do. I feel like everyone in my family benefits from my small obsession with thrift shopping. They may or may not agree with that statement!

My small obsession with thrift shopping/It is just something that I love to do.

This week at Goodwill, I found some more Target Salvage. A monogram pillow cover, yes, I know I said I was done with the initials but it matched my throw perfectly. Plus I have been looking for a pillow to add to my basket of throws because I want to add my vintage lamp to the table but I can’t stand seeing the cord hanging down.  I know such small problems I deal with on a daily basis.  Now the pillow takes care of that problem and it looks awesome.

This was a beautiful Target Salvage item I found at Goodwill.  I love anything with an initial. This pillow cover is perfect and the price was crazy cheap.

Threshold Pillow Cover from Goodwill. I am loving all of the Target Salvage I am finding at Goodwill.

You can see the clearance tag from Target still on the packaging.  It was pretty cheap on its final mark down at Target but nothing beats Goodwill prices, well to me anyway! Also, if you donate to Goodwill you  get coupons and yesterday was 50% off of all home good items.  So score for me!

The other item I picked up yesterday was a small cutting board.  I am a bit of a germaphobe so I will not use it as a cutting board. I am going to sand it down and stain it a darker color. Then I am going to add it to my white dish collection in my glass front cabinets in the kitchen.

Bargain Hunting

A small cutting board I found at Goodwill  that I will stain and use decoratively with my white dishes for some added dimension.

Fabulous Finds

The last item I am sharing was a freebie from our local nursery.  I am so excited by these burlap sacks!  We got five in all.

These burlap sack were free from our local nursery.  I want to use then for outdoor pillows.

They are approximately 40″ x 24″.  They are not vintage but I still love them and they were FREE!

These burlap bags are approximately 40" x 24"/ I love them and the fact that they were free.  I am hoping to turn them into some outdoor pillows.

There are so many bargains out there to be had.  Sometimes you need to think outside the box which makes it even more fun for me.  I absolutely love thrift shopping and my small obsession with bargain hunting has helped me revamp our home and stick to a budget.

Until Next Time,

Happy National Thrift Store Day

August 17, 2016 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

Happy National Thrift Store Day!  Who knew that such a day existed?  I for one did not know this!  My first clue should have been the fact that the parking lot to my favorite Thrift Store was packed.  Normally, I can zip right up to the front door but today I had to park in the very last spot furthest away from the shop which is not a big deal but I had just finished a two-hour workout to try to undo the damage of this past weekend…deep fried oreos…need I say more!

Happy National Thrift Store Day

Once I got into the store, I couldn’t believe how many people were crowded into the aisles.  It was too overwhelming for me.  This is one time I walked out empty-handed.  I didn’t even care that there was an additional 30% off either. I did my usual quick walk through but did not bother going back through for a more thorough inspection… too much chaos for me.  Since I want to celebrate National Thrift Store Day with you, I will share some of my thrift scores from last week since today’s trip was not a success!

Bargain Shopping…Happy National Thrift Store Day

I found these little gold beauties at Goodwill.  They are actually Target Salvage.  I love when I find great scores at Goodwill especially when they originally came from Target.

I found these little gold beauties at Goodwill for mere pennies. More gold accents for my home office, you can never have too many gold accents, right?  The gold pieces are Target salvage.  Our Goodwill has been awesome these past few weeks.  Goodwill has been carrying a lot of Target Salvage, especially a lot of summer clearance items which I need none of even if I love the outdoor tables.

I found more Target Salvage at Goodwill.  I picked up this little lap desk for a few dollars.  I love it!

I picked up the lap desk at Goodwill.  Yes, it is another Target Salvage.  I really like the weathered look of the wood on the desk.  It has two levels.  One side of the desk remains stationary while the other piece raises and lowers at different levels. The black metal legs fold up for easy storage. The perfect little find to start the school year off right…ugh!!  Still not ready…I feel like school just let out for the summer!

Lastly, I am sharing my decorative green apples that I picked up at Goodwill.  I have had this little wooden pedestal with nothing to place on it until now. I think this is a perfect little accent to our white kitchen

I found these decorative green apples at Goodwill. They are the perfect little accent to our white kitchen.

I wanted to say thank you to  Serena from Thrift Diving for sharing one of my thrift shop finds.  Stop by and check out her blog.  Like I have said before she does awesome work and always finds the best thrifted finds!

I hope you all have a great day.  Happy National Thrift Store Day!

Until Next Time,

The Ultimate Guide to Successful Thrift Shopping

August 14, 2016 By stylishrevamp 1 Comment

One comment I often here when I share some of my thrifted finds is, “I can’t believe you found that at _________” fill that in with Goodwill or one of my favorite thrift or consignment shops.  That comment is usually  followed up by I can never seem find anything when I go.  So today I thought I would share my version of The Ultimate Guide to Successful Thrift Shopping.

The Ultimate Guide to Successful Thrift Shopping | Want to know the best tips and tricks for thrift shopping, stop by StylishRevamp.com to check out my detailed guide to thrifting in The Ultimate Guide to Successful Thrift Shopping.

Go often.

I stop by my favorite haunts a lot. By a lot, I mean several times a week.  This is especially true for Goodwill shopping.  Their inventory is constantly changing.  I swing by my favorite consignment shop less often but still frequently.  The inventory does not move as quickly.  When I see something I really like at Goodwill, I will buy it right away because it will probably not be there the next day.  At the consignment shop, if I like something I will see if it is on its final mark down.  If it is I will buy it, if not I will sometimes take my chances and wait.  It’s a gamble because most people are doing the same thing, waiting for that final mark down. So, unless it is something that I really want I tend to wait and hope for the best.

I never shop with a list.  

I know this probably goes against everything most of you believe in but for me it works.  That’s not to say that I don’t have a wish list in my mind because I do but I do not go shopping with a certain item in mind.  I feel like if you are only looking for one particular thing you tend to miss out on a lot.  I try to look at everything not just look for one thing.  I hope that makes sense.   That is how I ended up with this great piece. I wasn’t looking for anything in particular and I spotted this piece.

A $10 Goodwill Furniture Makeover

You can read more about this piece here.

Look Past the Ugly and the Obvious

Let’s face it, there are a lot of ugly things out there at thrift stores, flea markets and yard sales.  Not only do you have to look past the ugly but sometimes you have to look past the filth!  You have to see past that and imagine what it could be after it’s cleaned up or revamped to suit your aesthetics.  Some good old fashion elbow grease and a can of paint can go a long way to completely change the look of a piece.

Looking past the obvious, what I mean by this is using items in a way they weren’t meant to be used.  For example, I found a beautiful silver ice bucket but I am using it as a planter. ( You can see that here. )  Use your imagination and keep an opened mind when you are browsing the aisles of your local shops.

Do a Quick Walk Through

I like to do a quick walk through of the entire store.  It gives me a little idea of what is out there.  If something jumps out at me, I immediately snatch it up this is especially true at Goodwill.  That’s what I did when I found this rolling stand.  I knew it wouldn’t be there by the time I completed my walk through and I loved that piece. If I don’t see anything during my quick walk through, I will make a second loop through the store at a more leisurely pace. This is when I will do a little digging through the piles of stuff.  You can find lot of hidden treasure if you are willing to do a little digging.

Come Prepared

When I shop, I always have a tape measure on hand and I keep measurements in my notes sections of my phone.  That way when I stumble upon a piece that might work for an area of my home, I can make sure it is a piece that will fit. I also keep cleaning wipes in my car to do a quick wipe down of furniture piece before I put them in my car!

Have Fun

 

I think it’s important to have fun.  I love the thrill of the hunt and it’s o.k. if I walk away empty handed.  That’s a part of the fun too!  Don’t be discouraged, be patient and keep at it! Believe me there is a lot of good junk out there!

I hope this little guide helps you on your next thrifting adventure.

P.S.  Always carry hand sanitizer!

 

Until Next Time,

Thrifting at Goodwill…again!

August 4, 2016 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

Yep, that’s right,  I was thrifting at Goodwill…again. And let me tell you, Goodwill was good to me this week.

Shopping at Goodwill this week and I scored big.  I found another rolling cart, a beautiful woven basket and a wood and chrome side table.  Stop by the blog stylishrevamp.com to get the details.

Last week I shared a rolling metal cart that I was going to use for a printer stand for my youngest guy.  Well, that has already changed.  My oldest is going to take it with him when he heads back to school in a few weeks.  That hurts my heart just thinking about him leaving again. I am still not use to it!

 My youngest is now going to use my latest find from Goodwill for his printer stand and it is a beauty! In my mind anyway!

GoodWill Metal and Wood Rolling Stand

It is absolutely perfect.  This is more of what I had in mind when I was searching for the vintage typewriter stand. I like that it is on wheels, has a shelf, a wood top, chrome base, and a pull out work station off the side. All this for only $8…I know I can’t help myself!

Today I am sharing my Goodwill find, a chrome and wood top rolling cart.  I love that it has a pull out side work station and a little shelf for storage.

Metal Rolling cart with slide out desk top

Once I snatched up the rolling cart, I was feeling lucky. I picked up my usual favorites, more white dishes.  I am slowly getting all that I need bit by bit.

After finding more dishes, I was going to check out but I saw some Target goods stacked up in the back.  I have been seeing more and more items from Target at Goodwill.  What I learned was this… once items that have been on clearance at Target and have not sold they may end up at Goodwill. So I was able to buy a few brand new items at Goodwill that were originally from Target, like this woven basket.

Basket from Goodwill

Beautiful woven basket picked up at Goodwill.  It was a salvaged Target item.  Therefore, it was brand new!

The other salvaged Target item I found at Goodwill is this little chrome and wood side table.

Chrome and Wood Side Table from Goodwill that is actually a salvaged Target item.

I picked it up, thinking I would spray the base gold and lacquer the top black. I wanted to use it with my black and gold table in my office. Then once I got it in there, I thought ehh not feeling it.  So before I rush to paint it, I will sit with it for a while and really think about what I want to do with it and how I want to use it!

All in all, I think it was a successful trip to Goodwill.  I may have to go back tomorrow.  I have my eye on a mirror and if it is still there, I may have to bring it home with me.

Is anyone else have good luck with their thrift shopping?

Until Next Time,

Goodwill Shopping on Thrift Shop Thursday

July 28, 2016 By stylishrevamp 2 Comments

Hi everyone, today we are Goodwill shopping on Thrift Shop Thursday.  Anything to get out of this heat! If I am not at the beach or the Island Home, I do not need or want this heat.  I am just going to say it… I am ready for the bitter cold weather of winter but will settle for the crisp coolness of Fall!  It was so hot today at the gym, I could not breathe.

Enough said, so we are moving on…check out my latest thrifting find from Goodwill.

Metal rolling stand from Goodwill.

( metal rolling filing cabinet)

Gman, my youngest received a printer for Christmas and I have been on the hunt for a vintage typewriter stand ever since, without any luck. When I walked into Goodwill, I spotted this bad boy.  It’s not the much coveted typewriter stand but it will work perfectly as a printer stand and it’s it great shape.

Thrifting at Goodwill

This beauty was 12 bucks! What I really like about it besides everything is the fact that the top lifts up and slides down the side to expose the filing racks. Gman is probably going to use it for private storage.

I actually like it in it’s natural state but I told Gman if he wanted me to spray it, I would.  He will just need to wait until we get a break from this heat.

Goodwill Thrifting for Thrift Shop Thursday

I hope you enjoyed this quick glimpse into my latest thrifted finds on Thrift Shop Thursday.  Enjoy your day and I hope you stay cool in the heat wave!

Until Next Time,
