I Love Thrifting!

Mr. Goodwill Hunting dubbed Saturday July 9th "I Love Thrifting Day" and of course I had to be there! We all met at Habitat for Humanity ReStore, which was HUGE... I will definitely be back.

It was at Goodwill that I found some great stuff! Yes, my bag was almost as big as I am.



Check out my loot...



I saw a woman (not in our I Love Thrifting party) pick up the magazine rack and put it back. I went and grabbed it.. I love the preppy trim and bamboo frame.

I also love anything cobalt so the cobalt stemware glasses went into my cart. (Yes I had a cart)

The little clock won my heart because it reminds me of a little port hole.

Isn't this shell dish beautiful? I love the detail.. you can see the ridges on the shell and everything. It'd be perfect for holding jewelry.



This brass box stood out to me.. I LOVE the small quatrefoil cut-outs (when I thrift, it's usually the details that makes or breaks it). Anything with quatrefoil - I'm sold.



Since my Colorado trip, I've been missing my bffs and baby Claire, so I had to go check out the baby section to see if there was anything she had to have. These adorable outfits were less than $2!! Whenever I have kids, I will definitely be shopping Goodwill for their clothes.



And because she's adorable, I'll use this opportunity to post another picture of her:


We call this move "Lounging At The Beach". I think she'll look pretty darn cute in her new thrifted digs.

All the above I got for around $21!! I call that a successful day.

These are a few of my favorite things...

Houzz.com has asked me to put together a series of 20 products every month that I love. How could I say no???

This month, I focused on my favorite home fragrances (all of which I use on a regular basis). Check it out here!

Pretty

Wow can you believe yesterday's post? Thank you to everyone who schooled me... every day is another opportunity to learn something new.

Anyway, I haven't had a "pretty picture" post in a while, so I thought I'd share some of my current favorites..

This is pretty much MY DREAM HOME. Living in the South, I've become obsessed with traditional, Southern homes. But this one has huge takes-up-the-entire-wall windows which is my dream come true.



I LOVE this storage solution for our master bath:



Pretty! I love all of it.


This backsplash reminds me of water...


Casual Elegance:


Our laundry room tile in a beautiful kitchen! Maybe this can be a less expensive alternative to bringing hardwoods into the kitchen...


Such a sweet nursery!
