Goodwill Hunting

Within the last month I feel like I have hit the jackpot with free finds and goodwill hunting! Here are a few of our finds!


Mustard yellow chair – $12
Yellow Suitcase - $5
White Basket (not including the “blankets” sign) - $3




 We found this beautiful chair while we were out on a walk on a Saturday morning! The garage sale was getting ready to end and no one wanted it! I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder! I loved the pattern and color! I have been looking for a chair like this for her room for quite some time now and this was the best price I have seen for a chair that is still in decent condition.  Patience is a virtue people! My parents actually bought it for us, so the price for us was zero!

Next to the chair is a suitcase which now houses some of her toys!  It has tons of space for all of her smaller toys, which has really been nice since she has a fairly small room and the toys sprawled out on the floor don’t help.

I have been drooling over some $15 baskets at TJ Maxx that are similar to this one for months.  I am SO glad I held out and didn’t buy TWO of them for $30! I made the little sign on the front for the basket that used to hold her blankets, but I like it much better on this one!

Globe – $2.50



This baby will be making an appearance in our guest bedroom/playroom/office when the attic is completely done.  Not only does it look cute, but we can educate our little girl with it!


Dresser – Free



I am in love with having this dresser in our kitchen! It doesn’t normally stand in front of the doorway, but it did for this day.  Our new dresser is our drink station (for hot cocoa and tea since we don’t drink coffee).  The drawers have been wonderful for extra storage and clearing off some extra counter space!

There is nothing wrong with free and cheap affordable finds for the home! Plus I think they are all pretty awesome, but that might just be me!
