Bows and Yard Sale Finds


I was asked to make some hair things for a friends' wedding and came up with these cuties! They can be worn in the hair, or pinned on a jacket or shirt!

And how about this matching headband?

I have been wanting a pair of these boots to wear in the winter for SO long! I am sick of wearing strappy shoes in the winter. So I HAD to snatch up these little Nine West beauties for $2!

This is a CRAZY find! The lady originally wanted to sell this Dolce and Gabbana purse for $15 which is crazy! But I asked the husband how much for it, and he said $5. I made a big stink about how the zipper was broken, (which it was, but I didn't care because I could latch it shut with the latch on the front) He said, "Okay, how about a $1?" I said, "Will you take $0.50?" He said, "Sure, but don't tell my wife." So I got a Dolce and Gabbana purse for $0.50! I'm really not in to brands, but how fun is it to have one of these purses for pocket change? The white leather was a little grungy, so I took a magic eraser to it, and it looks brand new!

Like my dollar finds? The hat is Abercrombie and the shirt American Eagle. And how cute are they together? Imagine with silver hoop earrings and curled hair in the winter.... :)

Check out these TRUNKS! I about DIED when I saw them at a yard sale! The lady wanted $5 a piece for them (She bought them at an antique store for $50 a piece). I am so excited to find a place on a high shelf for them or maybe even find a couple more and make an end table out of them!

  1. ok, i love, love those suitcase/trunks! like i said in my last comment -- i really want to go yard/garage saling with you! you're the best deal-getter! and i like your purse too -- my sister-in-law just brought me one like that back from NY, but it's just silvery (a rip-off, so it was cheaper).
    hope you guys are doing well!
