Have you ever had a really nice piece of décor that you hated to get rid of, but it just no longer matched your décor? I found the cutest lamp at the thrift store for $5 … [Read more...]

Hello amazing Friends!! I'm back today sharing a couple of small makeovers, and one BIG purge! Can I tell you that I am just now realizing that it is actually FRIDAY?

Time for thrifty Makeover #23, ya'll! What?? Only eight more left in this thrifty makeover series, but I've got some good ones still to come! Today's makeover is this rooster lamp that my Mom had brought over to sell at my neighborhood's annual yard sale last Spring: She was over the rooster thing and it no longer matched her kitchen, but she was undecided at the last minute whether she really wanted to sell it. She ended up leaving it at my house, and I decided to give it a … [Read more...]
$5 Thrift Store Lamp Makeover
March 15, 2016 by
Ok whose ready for the makeover of one very patriotic set of lamps? We are halfway there, ya'll and I've got a fun one to share today. I came across these lamps at the DAV thrift store a mile from my house a month or so ago. They were marked $4.98 each. You can't even buy lamp parts for that cheap! I was clueless as to how I could update a set of lamps that were birdhouses painted like American flags, but I bought one and was on my way. As soon as I turned out of the parking lot, I … [Read more...]
Thrift Store Lamp Makeover
December 15, 2015 by
Are ya'll up for a quick makeover today? I'm sharing a thrift store lamp that I found several months ago. The lighting in my booth is very harsh, so I thought I would find a lamp or two to add a little softer lighting to my space. Here is the lamp I found for a few dollars: It had pretty lines, but came without a shade. I didn't realize how hard shades would be to come by, and I did not want to break down and buy new. Luckily I didn't have to. I found this one for $3 a couple of … [Read more...]

If you've been following March Madness, welcome back! It's day #4 of my 31 Thrifty Makeovers in 31 Days! Today I'm sharing what I did with the goldalicious pineapple lamp I received in my Swap it Like it's Hot package.
