We got the large mirror with white frame (that looks like it's never even been hung on a wall) for $3, and the small mirrors were 50 cents each. I think I'm going to do some sort of craft with the small mirrors, but I haven't decided what.
I got these two packets of beads for 50 cents each. I think some sort of necklace is calling my name...
I really don't know what I'm going to do with these turquoise Ball jars, but at $1 each, I couldn't pass them up. I'll come up with something. I'm thinking they will find a home in our bathroom in NC. I saw these exact same jars at an antiques store today for $6.50 each! Granted, they had lids, but still, I don't think lids are worth $5.50!
And...
A gumball machine! Can you believe it? $10! We bought some small gumballs at Dollar Tree, but they're too small, so we may have to splurge for the humungous gumball container at Sam's that should last us a lifetime. Do you know how hard it is to find gumballs?! Whoda thunk it? Yes, it is residing in our bathroom right now, which I realize is kind of weird, but it matches our yellow towels and rug! And we don't have anywhere else to put it. I wish it had a stand, but it's pretty cool even without it.
I was trying to talk Steven into buying an ugly green desk, but he wouldn't go for it. It was only $10, solid oak, and all it needed was a little paint! I know it could've been really cute, but the voice of reason won out... we didn't really need it. It's hard to pass up such a great deal though!
I'm really sad that the garage sale season is almost over. Maybe I'll just have to hunt for crap treasures on Craigslist instead.
