Goodwill Heaven

 I died and went to Goodwill Heaven earlier today!  I hit the jackpot with that bad boy you see above, it is over 4 and 1/2 x 2 and 1/2 feet and it is old and it is all mine for just under $50, which I happen to think is a smokin' deal!   
I love to go to garage sales, thrift stores, estate sales, etc. in search of good deals and the first place I look at any of those places is the frame section!   I like the old, gold, gaudy looking frames the best (some I plan to paint, some will be left just the way they are) and if you look to the right side of the picture, you will see I have quite the collection of frames (you can't even really see the half of them) and this baby that I found tonight is the missing piece to the collage that will be hung tomorrow in our living room (get ready hubs, lots of work tomorrow when you get home from work)!  So excited!  
 Stay tuned for the finished wall!

Ok, so 'member our business we've been trying to start for a couple years now???....THIS is it! We (mostly YOU) will pick up awesome/vintage finds, we will spruce them up & sell them. I, of course, will be the PR girl. Michael will be our designer/corporate developer!

I'm a frame "junkie" too. Funny!

Every time I go to Goodwill I curse the fact that I have a tiny car that can't fit furniture! Did you paint that glorious blue piece behind the frame?
