My favorite time of year is rolling back around... spring... which means YARD SALES!
Last year I scoured yardsales for wedding finds (
Yard Sale Beauts). This year it's for our house!
Since we got the house in September (
Home Sweet Home) there was one thing I've been dieing to have for our kitchen. Our house has a country feel to it and I thought that a cute little baker's rack would be perfect for the one wall. Unfortunately, prices are about $149 for them. (Not an option.) I was surfing Craigslist last weekend and there was a local yardsale (7 miles away) that said there was a baker's rack for sale. So, I was one of their first customers the next morning.... and guess how much.................
ONLY $10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, I moved it in, and filled it with what I had on hand. Above it I have strings with wedding pics held to them with mini clothes pins. Over Christmas it held our Christmas cards :)
Yesterday was a mega-yard sale day with my mom. :)
Here's my winnings:
Spiderman 3 Blu-ray, Prayer of Jabez Book, Make-up purse, Pampered Chef veggie steamer, LEGO TABLE, Black and Decker tool playset (for future children- $1)!!!, 2 crates for the front porch, shorts for my stepson, shirt for me, Nerf board, Home Sweet Home sign, and a hilarious game where you toss bulls and earn points for what position they land in. :)
Grand total........ $18!!!!
Life is good. I love sales. :)
