Goodwill Goods

I think I have a new passion/obsession.

Thrifting.

Yep, I have been bitten by the thrifting bug. It is amazing what you can find for so little. I just have to share a few of my finds with you. Check them out.

 Shoes...who doesn't love a new (to me) pair of shoes let alone two pairs! 

 I am so excited about this...a nice black blazer. Planning to feature this baby in some cute outfit soon. 

 This is an Anne Taylor tweed skirt!

 Belt. I liked the color and design. 

A whole bunch of  books for the little man. I am over the moon excited about these because I was getting really tired of the three books that we already have. 

Fabric! This stuff caught my eye because of the teal color. I have been contemplating bringing in the mustard yellow color into our bedroom. This stuff would be perfect to make a decor pillow. 

This is what it might look like if I did end up making a pillow. I might make a smaller longer pillow instead of making one that is the same size as the bird pillow. What do you think? Does it go? I am still on the fence about it. 

This is the kicker...You want to know how much all of this cost me? Go ahead just take a guess...

Drum roll please....

$1.07

That's right people all of that great stuff cost me one dollar and seven cents. That was not a typo! I stumbled upon this great deal going on at a small thrift shop. You could fill and entire grocery bag full for just $1! Yeah I was just a wee bit giddy about it. 

I have a feeling thrifting may be in my blood.

Master Bedroom To Do

With every room in the house I have things that I would like to do and improve and I think the bedroom is one of the places that needs the most work at this point. Because I am such a list lover I decided I would make a list of some of the things that I want to add/decorate in the master bedroom.

Master Bedroom To Do List:

- Find some smaller side tables
- Get a dresser
- Once we have said dresser organize the closest
- Wall art
- New bed skirt
- Find a throw blanket for the end of the bed

Now if any of you have seen or know of some cool DIY stuff that would go along with my list I would LOVE to know about it. Send me a link via a comment and I will definitely check it out.

Master Bedroom Updates

Our master bedroom looked pretty awful for nearly a month while I tried to figure out what I wanted to do. Well I can happily report that we now have a duvet and some pillows and it feels much more like a bedroom. I still feel it has a long way to go...but it is a definite improvement. 

Check out the before and after photos.

What do you think of the color scheme? I love our new white duvet! The room does need more "pops" of color as the interior design people would say and I plan to add a throw blanket to the end of the bed someday. I am even thinking maybe bringing in that pretty mustard yellow color. What do you think about that? [Please note that our walls are not really that gross color that they are in the photos, this was all the lack of skill of the photographer]

The Tour

OK, so I took FOREVER to get this posted but I have been having some issues with posting video. I think I have got it all figured out now. This is an awful video and you are probably going to want to lose whatever last meal you just ate but it is the best I could do.

Take a look into our new apartment!
