Frugal Friday Party!

I decided to try linking up to Wendy at The Shabby Nest for her Frugal Friday link party. After a lot of whining (Natalie and Michaela Byrd, sometimes me), a bunch of bickering (the girls) and about 78 time outs (Natalie's, not mine, unfortunately) this week, I am tuckered out. I needed something fun to post about, so I figured why not share the cool accessories I found at Salvation Army this week?

I got the little planter for $1.50 and the vase was $2.00. I have no clue where I will put that vase, because I don't have anything in my home that color (yet). But I loved the shape and color, so it came home with me! That lovely color is enough to melt away this week's chaos...almost.

It's hard to tell, but the metal planter was (note: I wrote "was") an olivey shade of green. No more!

A fresh coat of $0.97 white spray paint from Wal-Mart has transformed her into a new "tool" organizer for my Salvation Army makeover desk, which I will reveal on Monday when I link to a Goodwill Party at Thrifty Decor Chick's blog.

A little leftover black fabric paint (that was all I had!), a homemade stencil (check back on Monday to see how I did it!), and she is all dressed up with nowhere to go. Well, she has somewhere to go...my new desk, but I can't show you that just yet.

Have you discovered any frugal finds lately? Hit a yard sale this weekend and see what you can find!

{Happy Frugal Friday!}
