second chances!

A couple of weekends ago, my hubby took me on one of my favorite Saturday morning adventures of all times. It all started with a McDonald's chicken biscuit and a mocha frappe, yum. I could write an entire blog about Saturday morning Mickey D's breakfasts, but then my 5 readers would turn into none in a hurry, ha! We figured out we make quite the team at navigating our way through the local garage sales. Here are a few of our finds.

This poor ugly ducky got sold to me for fifty cents!


He got made over into this. I added a magnetic board behind in lieu of the duck burlap that was goin' on before, painted, and then distressed and made a home for it here..

I found this old frame for one dolla.

And made miss Maddox a bow holder. I painted, glazed, and added ribbon to it.

Not a bad day for less than 2 dollars, and maybe I did enough walking, sanding, painting, etc. to burn off that biscuit.
