Thrifty Thursdays #4

Thrifty Thursday is back!  I've been hard at work on a ton of thrifty projects, and can't wait to share them all with you here.

Thanks to everyone who added links last week - let's see if we can break last week's record of 14 posts! 

Here's my thrifty score of the week - another ReStore find. I got an email on Saturday suggesting that I brave the icky rain/sleet weather to visit ReStore because they were offering 20% off the Entire Store! How's a girl supposed to resist that?

 I went looking for old desk drawers that I could upcycle. Found them for $1 each (0.80 after the discount). But that's not even the best deal. My heart started beating a little faster when I turned the corner and saw this:

It was love at first sight.  It reminds me of a bedside table, but it's bigger.  I made up my own "sold" sign and slapped it on it, also removing the price to show to the cashier. I was so afraid someone else would buy it before I could! It's perfectly distressed - better than I could have done if I tried to do it myself.    I'm going to use it in my new shabby chic style studio as a place to display some antique sewing machines and other vintage goodies. Oh, and after the discount, it was $20! I'm going to change out the hardware, so I'll post "after" pictures when she's all done and accessorized.

OK, now it's your turn - what's been happening in your crafty/thrifty world?  Link it up below:

Here's how Thrifty Thursday @ Quilted Cupcake works:

1. Enter a link (specific blog post, not your homepage) using the Linky Tools below to a thrifty find.  It can be anything you bought at a thrift store, yard sale, estate sale, etc. that you want to share. It can be something you repurposed, upcycled or any other thrifty crafty projects you'd like to share.  

2. Please try to check out at least one other link on the list (and leave a comment, too, if you can).

3. Add the Thrifty Thursday  button below to your post or sidebar to let others know you are participating.  (See sidebar for button code for easy pasting.)
