My dollar store inspired decor

  


   I have decorated my entire kitchen with either cheap or free (hand me downs from mom) stuff! There really is no theme for my decor, I call it eclectic. It does have kind of a country feel, at least to me It does. I tend to fall towards the country look  because that is where I really want to be, lol. I want a big Contry house with acres and acres of land. I even want chickens so I can fetch my own eggs. Hey, you can never find a coupon for eggs, and everyone knows I dont like buying anything without a coupon.

Partylite vase- Free from mom (Apples $5  at walmart)

My counter as it is now. Nothing special, but I think it looks cute. I think It is about to get a fall makeover.  I was never one to decorate seasonally, but I am just feeling it this year.

What do you think I should do to the counter for fall?

                             My diy finds and redos

I found this goldish metallic star at the goowill for .99. Couldnt decide what to do with it at first, but after painting it black, I decided to hang it near my computer and use it for pens, and important papers. Cost: $1.50

My next find was from a garsge sale. My mom actually bought this for me for $1.00.

I didnt care for it at all, It had a dark wood top before I sanded it. I thought it looked like

something someone would put their cotton balls, It was to say the least, ugly. So, I sanded it down, banged the lid up a bit, and put a knob on it that I already owned. Total cost to me: Free!  Except the bag of oreos I filled it back up with that cost me .50.

This is my favorite, I love the way it turned out. Jeff and I have actually come uo

with the idea of selling my projects and craft shows. This one though, I am going to keep.

Cost: $1.99 for frame

.99 for paint

About .50 for the cardboard

.97 for the paint

$3.00 for the nails

$1.00 for the decals

       This is the partylite vase my mom gave me. I got some stuff from the dollar store and just exchanged them for this suff from the dollar store.

Kroger: My Magazine

 Being a Kroger customer really has its perks. First of all, you can load coupons directly onto your Kroger card. Secondly, they send out exclusive coupons to their best customers. I have been a regular shopper at Kroger for about 4 years now. Just recently, I have been getting the Kroger my magazines in my mailbox. They are full of exclusive coupons, usually things that can be found on sale that week. So, make sure you get a Kroger customer savings card and make sure your address is correct so you to can recieve your savings via mail!
