TnT - Mirror mirror on the wall

Hey hey!

Just a quick post on my opshop find yesterday.

I was indecisive whether to hit the opshops. Mum was in my ear saying "you come back with so much trash rararara...'. So just to get her a little bit more worked up I went hehehehe

Visited Vinnies...nothing.

Next was BlueLight opshop....nothing.

Then Salvos...score! I spotted a gilded mirror a few weeks ago and went back a week later and couldn't find it anywhere. Obviously been sold. Mind you I left it initially because it had a price tag of $44.99 - frugal me walked away.

Anywho - walked in yesterday and there it was sitting in the front display *Happy dance*. The opshop angels must have been shining their lights upon me because it was 50% off *Body roll*! So got it for $22.50.

T&T - Chalkboard Love

A little bit about me....I love second hand shopping! No let me rephrase - I'm addicted.

I love going through junk, whether it be at a second hand store, flea market, eBay or Gumtree. It's a combination of 1. up/recycling 2. reducing my contribution to land fill and 3. I'm frugal.

There is no other high than finding an item and squealling in excitement under your breath so no one thinks your crazy, paying for the item, walking away calling your hubby/girlfriend/sister/mum "omg! guess what I just freaking bought ......"

Well I had one of those moments recently when I found this small chalkboard at the local opshop. It's brand new still in its package.

It has beautiful bird and branch pattern on the top and the chalkboard at the bottom.





I have plans for this possibly in the bedroom or entrance...once we move in....if ever (damn renos) *shakes fist in the air*
