3 cheers for garage sales!

The boys and I found a few garage sales on the way to the library today. They weren't too impressed since I didn't find any toys or books for them, but I've found that I find the best things when I'm not even planning on going to garage sales. Today did not disappoint.

$5 for this shelf.  I plan on painting it white, replacing the knobs with silver hardware, and hanging it in the downstairs bathroom.  I think I'll be able to store wash cloths and hand towels in the compartment.

 Best find in my opinion, $2 for this lounge chair.  I've been wanting one since I've been spending a lot of time sitting outside so Aaron can play.

These vases were $8 each, which I thought was a bit much until I saw the price tag underneath...

(Excuse the upside down pic)
Originally $39 at Pottery Barn!  I put these on top of my kitchen cabinets.

Garage Sale Find

I went garage saleing (is that a word? I never know how to spell it.) yesterday with my mom, sister, Andrew, and Aaron and I think I earned the award for coolest mom ever when I found this for Andrew and Noah.
Its missing a few pieces like the top of the back tower but the boys love it. And the best part? I only paid $15 bucks. Its selling for $134.99 on Amazon!

I have one other garage sale find I'm going to share but not for a few weeks. It needs a little transforming. :-)
