Great Finds

I just wanted to share a couple of great pieces I found this week...

The chair came from a new thrift store that a local church opened up. It is worn on the seat which doesn't matter since I'm going to paint it anyway. And, it is very sturdy. The best part... I only paid $4 for it. Yes, you heard right!!! FOUR DOLLARS! I'm not sure how I'm going to paint it yet. So many ideas are running through my head. I'll have to get a grip on which one I like best.

The mirror came from a junk/antique store on Hwy 16 near Griffin, GA.

It has a couple of chipped places on it, but once I paint it you'll never notice. It is great quality...very heavy. I love the shape of it! I'm going to be a copy cat and try the Acid Mirror technique I saw over at Luxe Boulevard...

Oh... I forgot to mention that I only paid $10 for the mirror!

Take one more look...


So, stay tuned to see how I turn my inexpensive finds into something wonderful!
