Here are some great deals I have found at our local "Thrifty Shopper".
As I stroll though the store, my "wheels are always turning", thinking "what can I do with this?" or ""what can I turn that into?"
I bought this $5 stool and thought " I can decoupage this with all the shopping bags I have been saving for years and prove to my husband there was a reason I was saving them!"
So, I cut off the store logos.....
...and decoupaged them on the top:
It was an inexpensive project - IF - you don't count everything I purchased in the shopping bags!

I also found this little $7 table at the same store:
And AGAIN, I could prove to my husband that there was a really good reason why I had been collecting yardsticks:
and with a bit of spray paint and a little measuring and cutting, I attached them on the top of the table:
Again, so smug with the satisfaction that I could prove why I "needed" to be saving them for a few years!!

How could I ever resist buying a little $.69 cent coffee pot?
A little bit of paint turned it into a great vase:
I need to remind hubby that he needs to fill this with daisies!!
*********************************
These little glass globes are only $.79 at our thrift shop. I ran it thru the dishwasher and painted it with some enamel paints - perfect to hold a tea light or a few fresh flowers!
A perfect little hostess gift!
