I LOVE your buffet! I've been looking for one for years here in utah to paint white but the ones I find are either way to expensive or gone. It seems like everyone is into thrifting and DIY here. Your nook is just dreamy!
That came together great. I love my colorful retro Pyrex from Savers!

you are amazing! I need you here.. !!! I cannot believe you have had the time to get all these pieces painted, I have family heirloom dresser in my garage (2 years now) that needs a white paint/anthropologie update.... what kind of furniture paint do you use? Have fun with the new phone.... :) heather
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE come shop for me! I've been looking for a buffet for 2 months now and have almost decided to just go to a real store instead of re-doing it myself. *shriek* Your couch deal is the best I've ever seen. You are my hero!
Oh Kristi!!! So fun to see some of your home!!! I loved the piggie in the window! What a great score on the couch!!!! Hello - you have some serious skill with looking and FINDING things like that!
Please tell me you are still unpacking!!! Otherwise I might be totally depressed!
What a great blogger friend to stop by with timely treats and a hug!!
I love, love , love everything you are doing to your house and I love it even more that you are doing it on so little money! I love that yellow on your walls.

[Image]$60.00 nook!
It has been kind of crazy how all the elements of our house have come together. All of our decor and furniture was thrifted before we moved.
I love sitting back with Jeff and adding how much corner did not cost us!
Here is my $60.00 nook! Buffet that we painted white - Goodwill $25.00Fake Van Gogh in frame - Goodwill $4.99Lamp - Tina's Consignment $15.00Mirror with gold trim - Tina's Consignment $3.99 Cake Stands - Costco - $15.00I went to Home Goods yesterday and had a hard time buying anything. My mind kept saying, "$40.00, I can find this for $5.00" Wow real stuff is expensive and I was at Home Goods!
What is your best thrifted item?

I love that buffet! Jealous. And I can't believe those cake stands were at Costco! You are the master.
I've been looking for a tiny dresser to use as a nightstand and a bookshelf for Eva's room and have come up totally empty.
