Thrifty finds

I have been a little bit obsessed with estate sales lately. I hit several last weekend and two on my lunch break on Friday. I ended up with some really cool finds but here are my favorites:













At the first estate sale, I picked up this pretty set of yellow and orange napkins for $3.















These pretty yellow framed napkins that I got at one estate sale and the matching placemats that came from another. For $2 for each of the sets, they were a steal. Now I just need four more yellow place-mats to make eight total.
















And this beautiful cake plate that actually came from the Garland rd thrift store for $10. With some silver polish and elbow grease, it looks pretty darn good. Sorry about the crappy lighting. I'm going to have to work on that.

I also picked up a couple of "fix me-up frames" which I plan on using for some projects. We shall soon see how that turns out.

    Great finds! If you find yourself at another thrift store or estate sale soon, could you keep an eye out for a lamp for me? I want to do this DIY project:
