Thrifting Extravaganza

This post is for my good friend DeLynn. I am embarrassed to say I haven't posted anything new for a whole year! DeLynn said she was getting tired of seeing the same darned egg and bunny post. I said, "Hey, it's that time of year again so I am in season!" I guess this is a good time to pick up where I left off.
Even though I haven't been blogging I've still been busy. I've completed many projects, taken a electrocardiogram program, gone to Sweden, and am working on a master bedroom and closet makeover.  To get back in the swing of things I will start with what I love best, a makeover!

Last fall I got to go on a Thrifting Extravaganza, a day of fun and thrifting with a group of friends. We all piled into a van and spent the day traveling to a bunch of thrift stores around Kansas City. We had a great time and my special find that day was this cute little nightstand for the bargain price of $15.00.

I love the lines of these little French Provincial pieces and seem to be drawn to them. After a little sanding, paint and light distressing she is ready for her next life.
Speaking of French pieces, I found the prettiest china cabinet on Craig's List. It is part of my closet makeover that I plan on sharing with you soon!
I want to thank Nancy over at nancy elizabeth at home  for honoring me with the Liebster Award, for blogs with under 100 followers.You may know Nancy from her former blog, La Borda Bleu. It made my day to find her sweet message and to know that someone was enjoying my blog.
