My Awesome Antique Finds

Thu, 25 Aug 2011 By Decorchick! 42 Comments

Hey all! I don’t know about y’alls Goodwills and thrift stores, but for me, they’ve been a total bust lately. Granted I haven’t gone much this summer, but I do pop in occasionally searching for the next treasure. So since I haven’t had any luck at those stores, I decided to go to a really [...]

A Cute Little $5 Bench

Wed, 28 Jul 2010 By Decorchick! 108 Comments

I found this bench at the thrift store for $5. Can you believe that?? I thought it was so adorable, but my husband, ummm notsomuch. He seriously wanted to put it by the curb for trash pick up. Shame on him! And I’m sorry, this has to probably be one of the worst “before” photos [...]

A Book Makeover! Yes, A Book Makeover…

This was probably the easiest little project I’ve done to date. But it’s sooo cute!! I had these 2 books that I got at a resale shop recently… Well I took that blue one and fixed her up! First I spray painted it Heirloom White. I did tape around all of the pages so I [...]

I did another little project over the weekend with the 4 remaining little flower pots I found at the thrift store recently. You can click here for that post. We have this area above our front door in the entryway… So I decided to use my 4 little pots and sit them on the ledge [...]

My Prized Possessions…Hutch and Buffet Redo

Mon, 05 Jul 2010 By Decorchick! 162 Comments

Have you inherited an ugly piece of furniture whenever you got married? I have. It was our dining room buffet table. I’ve lived with it for 4 years now, and it was time for an overhaul when I found this hutch at Goodwill to go on top of it. Goodwill had it marked for $99, [...]

More Thrifty Finds

Went to a local resale shop and scored all of these old mason jars! This one is particularly old with the off-centered “Perfect Mason” and original zinc lid. Who knows, maybe this jar is worth loads of cash and I can retire my husband. Yea, I know that’s unlikely but it’s ok for me [...]

$5 Thrift Store Chair

Mon, 21 Jun 2010 By Decorchick! 69 Comments

When I went to the thrift store recently, I stumbled upon 2 of these great rush chairs. And for $5 each!! They were in great condition and solid construction too. The rushing could stand to be redone as it’s a little worn, but I have NO clue how to do that, and this isn’t the [...]

Easy Wall Art

Mon, 14 Jun 2010 By Decorchick! 59 Comments

When I redid our master bedroom, I didn’t want to buy a lot of art pieces to hang on the wall because I was on a budget, and I wanted something more original. And I also was liking the simplicity of the room, and didn’t feel like I had to fill up every inch of [...]

I heart chalkboards

Sun, 23 May 2010 By Decorchick! 29 Comments

Chalkboards are a great way to add that touch of coziness in any room of your home. It’s a fun way to write sweet notes, honey-do’s, your favorite scripture, the dinner menu, and the list goes on. They are also very inexpensive to make which makes them even better. I buy the chalkboard spray paint [...]
