Orange and brown and striped all over


I have been on the lookout for a replacement vintage Hide-a-Bed  for our "T.V. room"
Last year I saw one at a garage sale for $50.. It obviously didn't sell because I noticed the next day it was listed in the freebie section of the classifieds. ("So I went and picked it up") It worked good for the first while but we realized quickly the cushions that went along the back were a little too worn in and ended up sinking into blobs after watching a show or two. *lol* So we took those off the darn couch and have been using the couch without them which is... well hard and springey at times.
 So I started my search for a new one in the beginning of January and have seen a few but they get snapped up QUICK or are priced higher than what I want to pay.
"After all I am a bargain hunter..."


This afternoon this sofa was listed on a classified site. I e-mailed the owner within the first 30 something minutes of it being posted. I have plans to go look at it tomorrow afternoon.
I just LOVE it. 
So I have my fingers and toes crossed that it will look as good in person as it does in it's photos.
For some reason I have always loved plaid couches.
I will give you a update soon....
If I do get this loveseat... I need to get some crochet covered cushions ASAP!


There is one thing I am wondering... I wonder if it's a Simmons?

Recentley Thrifted & Happy Holidays

"Can't stop the obsession with the FAUX FUR!!"

I found this one on Sunday whilst visiting dollar tag sale day at one of my local thrifts. I like to pay ten or under for my faux fur coats... but sometimes I am willing to splurge a little more. I paid twenty for this one.


See the yellow gingham curtain in my door window? I found that for $1.99

(It makes me happy)

$1.79 for this Mamselle M brooch

*Woohoo Moconut*


$2.79 for this pineapple necklace


$3.25 for this Thistle Brooch.
(I bought this for one of my Mom's friends who is Scottish)

Found these little rascals this afternoon $0.50 cents each... The little deers were prancing all through the gifts under the tree and getting tangled in tinsel and ribbon. They like to eat candy canes and light bulbs.


Funky Men's clip-on tie $0.99





LOL I dunno but when I saw it ... it was a HAVE to have situation $0.99






$0.50 for this Syrup dispenser... I think this is one of the nicest I have came across so far.
