Whoa! It’s been so hot all across the country. I’m about to head to hotlanta for Haven 2016, my fifth Haven Conference! I dread the high August temps there. I haven’t been to a single yard sale this year, but that doesn’t stop me from getting some great deals!
While visiting Vendors’ Village to tidy my booth, and add some more items to the inventory, I found this awesome mirror in Joey’s booth for only $8.
Cousin Terry went to Unique Thrift store during a 30% off sale and picked up a few things for me including this $7 sewing cabinet.
This one was only $5 after the discount. I LOVE it!
I’ve been wanting to do some pedestal projects with my many spindles—Terry knew I was looking for some wooden bowls and plates.
This bowl is really big, but I have some extra large spindles that it will be perfect with.
When I went to get my haircut last month, my hairdresser Marlene asked if I wanted some items she was getting rid of. Of course I rarely say no to FREE! This chest of drawers is in pretty good shape.
I LOVE this cute little library table, but it needs a little TLC.
Yipppee! Another free bed!
Have you been getting some great deals at yard sales and thrift stores? Or, like me, do you prefer FREE stuff?
I’d love to hear your thoughts about what you would do with these goodies, do leave a comment below.

August 10, 2016 at 10:11 amI can not wait to see what you do with the first sewing table. I have one just like it in my basement from a sewing machine (no longer use the machine) my grandma gave me. I need ideas on how to repurpose the table since I am redoing the room it has been stored in.
