Quick, as soon as you are done reading this blog post run, don’t walk, to your nearest Hobby Lobby. Well, actually not your nearest. Go to the nearest BIG Hobby Lobby near you. I have a HL near me and it’s small and cramped and doesn’t seem as well stocked as the one by B’s preschool. So I went to that one today for some jars for my kitchen and ended up leaving with a cute piece of decor for my back yard.

They have all of their Garden Decor on sale for 80% off. That’s right. 80%. You can say it… I sure did. “HOLY CRAP! That’s a big discount! ”

This location had 2 rows full of 80% clearance items, which included yard signs, welcome signs, wall hangings, iron decor and more.

I found some adorable little gardening tools that looked all rusted and vintage for $1.40 each. I snagged one of each style and went over to where they have hooks and knobs. I found a 3 hook panel that had gardening designs on it, and hung the tools from each hook. Perfect! All the hooks/knobs/etc were also 50% off, making it only $6.49!

So my entire decor piece for on my back wall was $10.69 + tax. Not too shabby!

(Side note: Glassware was on sale for 50% off too, so I snagged several airtight canisters for my kitchen at only $2.24 each.)

Back from Vacation, and my $18 find

newlightHello everyone!

I’m back from Vacation. It was a 2 week trek back home (up north) for my best friends wedding. YAY! We also saw lots of family and had a great time, but it really put a halt to all the projects we were working on.

So today we dove back in head first on finding great deals to help us improve our home.

And by the way, I found one heck of a deal that I didn’t get a blog about before we left town… I’ll be sure to share that one with you soon enough though. Just a hint? It’s a $2,000.00 deal. No joke. :D

But today my deal is a $70 deal.

We went to Lowe’s tonight to get some cement board screws to hang up some outdoor decor I purchased (also a deal, but will post about that tomorrow) and while there we saw a rolling rack with light fixtures that were clearanced. I found what appeared to be a display model of the Mitchell Vanity Mirror. It was in great shape! I told my husband that it would be perfect in our downstairs half bathroom which is very plain and booooooring right now.

In this boooooring half bathroom we have a totally basic frameless mirror, a pedistal sink, and one of these fugly temporary lights

Not very stylin, huh? So we snatched that pretty little light up and headed right home to install her!

Here are my horribly blurry, not color corrected quick photos I took after dark. LOL

Not a bad change for 18 beans huh? ;)

Tell me about the best deal you’ve found recently for our home or crafting!
