Goodwill Finds

There is something so thrilling when you find vintage pieces at the thrift store. One of my favorite piece is this nightstand I found at Goodwill for $20. The curvature on this is so elegant and classy. With some leftover paint, I turned it into a glamorous nightstand.

I lightly sanded the nightstand, put on two coats of latex paint, and sprayed the handle a metallic silver

I found a set of lamps at Goodwill for $5.00 each. It's ugly isn't it? Yes, but if can just get past the first impression and use a little imagination it can save you $100. Besides, you can paint it any color you like.

Here is the before

And After

I glued a strip of ribbon onto the lampshades to give it more character. It couldn't have been more fitting. The ribbons were from a set of old curtains that I took apart.

Another Piece I got at Goodwill for $50. I got this for Lucy because she has so many clothes. I can't wait to work on this. This is a solid piece of wood and it is quality furniture. That's another reason why I prefer buying older pieces. I also love the curves and the decorative front. I am thinking about painting it but I might want to try staining.
