Hey all!!! If you’re just joining me.. I scored this week’s $2.00 item last week during my Goodwill Hunting. It was the Martha Stewart wastebasket. Yes, it had some bruises on it – but that’s ok.. it’s been transformed.. and I’m pleased with the finished product. Remember it’s going in my office – so I wasn’t too meticulous about it.
Here’s the wastebasket before: I know… pretty bland.. right..(Martha Stewart huh???)
Well here’s your Vintage Girl’s version
Much better right!!!! ( Please say yes, please say yes… )
The teeny-tiny little bubbles occurred when I removed the tape..but again – it’s ok… (besides they add texture )
Here it is inside my office… It’s the perfect size… and price $2.00
It’s not Vintage – but it’s definitely Thrifty –
I think even Martha would be pleased… –
And as for the rest of the goodwill items.. here are some around the house..
Batteries added to the candles.. not bad for $2.50; Pillows are washed and fluffed back up…$4.00
This pair of frames looks perfect with the print scarf draped across the wine cabinet
And my lovely ballerina niece looks adorable in this frame
Like I said.. it was a very good Goodwill Hunting – Well I’m off .. see you again real soon….
