Tray/Vignette and a Few Yard Sale Finds

Here is the tray I bought last weekend at a yard sale for $1. I spray painted it black and added a placemat in the bottom and some accessories. I am loving trays so much I want to have them everywhere!


I didn't buy much at yard sales this weekend. I got the 2 wreath topiaries for $1 each, the small chalkboard for $1, and the large chalkboard for 25 cents.



Happy Monday to you!!!

I enjoy reading your blog and love your decor style. I am considering using reds and yellows. Can you tell me all the colors of your walls?

I have so many fun things that I have found at thrift stores and I can't wait to use them once I get my walls painted the right colors.

Thank you!
