Frugal Vacation Finds

Our mini-vacation to Pennsylvania wouldn’t be complete without a trip to the outlets!   I love going to the outlets.  Of course, some of them charge the same prices as their regular stores, so we skipped a few.  I won’t share every little thing I got {like the baby clothes I picked up for my future granddaughter $1.00 - $5.00 a piece, and I spent  $50.00 for at least 10-12 items of clothing}.

Among the many stores we hit, I found a Calico Corners Outlet!  I know.  Like I need more fabric.  I do wish we had one of those here though!

Not only did they have small yardages available, but also furniture, trims, full bolts of fabric and window treatment floor samples at great prices.  Here’s what I got. 

They had these small bundles of coordinating fabrics in all different colors.  This one caught my eye with the pretty pinks and greens.  I haven’t opened them up yet, but it looks like good size pieces and maybe you could get two pillows out of this.  This was $2.00 with 15% off!

I found this great vintage looking fabric.  A yard for $8.00 {plus 15% off} and I’m sure I’ll find something to make with it. 

I got these fabrics for my Mom.  I know she wants to do something French in her house and I thought these would be perfect.  I’d love to do some kind of window treatment with this toile that will fully show off the picture.  Maybe valances.  The plaid goes really well with it ~ the same colors are in both fabrics. 

And this trim to go with them.

I spent a total of $52.00 at the Calico Corners Outlet and got all the fabrics and trims shown here.  Everything was 15% off!

The other great buy I wanted to share were these napkins from Pottery Barn Outlet.  They go with my dining room and were $4.99 each, plus 40% off. 

  

Love those outlets and I love frugal finds even when I’m on vacation!
