Last week, while waiting for Friday’s yard sales {after the 4th of July holiday} I decided to hit up Goodwill and drop off some of the fabric I went through recently. Of course, I had to go in and check out what they had. Prices were looking a bit high. Now that I’m done acquiring tureens for my kitchen cabinet top you know I found one. At $12.99, my $1.00 yard sale tureen find with the missing lid handle was a real bargain, so I passed up the Goodwill one. I did find a bunch of stuff though.
For $27.00 and change I came home with this lot. I’ll be taking the picture out of the pretty decorative frame and painting that up. The pretty corkboard will be getting a new image on it. The cabinet door is getting a makeover as well.
Two chalkboards for $.99 each. The larger one was still in its plastic packaging.
Some Frenchy things ~ this plate clock and an Eiffel tower.
I also found this cute little gazebo type figurine. I thought this might look cute in my little fairy garden.
A couple of tops finished off my thrifty shopping. Now to get to work! I have a handful of projects to work on, so these will keep me busy for a little while.

I LOVE that plate clock! I can't wait to see what you do with the rest of your goodies. We were right near a Goodwill over the weekend and ran out of time to check it out. I've never been to one, believe it or not!

Nice finds, Kathy. Now, go work your magic.
I have had zero luck with Goodwill lately. =( Love the French clock and Eiffel Tower piece. I would have grabbed the chalkboards too!

You found loads of potential, wow. I know you'll create something beautiful with all of them. Every time I make a donation to Good Will I end up buying something too LOL although the prices are getting stupid ridiculous! I'm still addicted to the place.
Great finds!! Can't wait to see you work your magic!!

Looks like some great new finds there, Kathy. Hope you had a really good day- xo Diana
I really like that clock you found. A Goodwill just opened here and I think the prices are way too high, I just keep going back to my fav thrift shop which has better prices.
Great finds!
Great Finds Kathy, I love Goodwill! and Garage Sales!!
Hi Kathy
I am glad that you found some great things at GW. I haven't had much luck there lately and yes, the prices are going up in the thrifts as well.
Hope you are having a nice summer.

Very nice finds! Anxious to see what you do with them! Blessings~~~Roxie
Great finds Kathy! I haven't been to Goodwill in awhile. The last time I was there I noticed an increase in there prices. Hope you have a wonderful day, Gail
You scored some great items- I especially love that clock. I haven't been having much luck lately at the thrift stores, and yard sales haven't been much better. Plus the heat and humidity makes it miserable. Ok, I'll stop whining now. :)
I like that clock!
That little gazebo should look perfect in a fairy garden. I've always wanted to make one. I have an old kids wagon that would be perfect since it has rust holes in it.
