Getting my fix!

So it's been a few days since I was out goodwill hunting with the holidays and all and I was starting to get the shakes.  I had to run out and finish some last minute gift getting for someone on my list and just so happened to be passing by a Goodwill.  I'd left my husband with the kids for what he thought was a quick shopping trip so I had to make it snappy!

I wasn't even going to go in but I'm sooooooo glad I did!  Look what I found!!!!


Can I get a Hells Yeah!!!
This Chippendale arm chair was $15.  I was so excited normally I just rip the tag off (to claim it as mine) and continue shopping but it was too risky!  I carried that thing around as I continued shopping just to make sure no one could gank it from me!!!

I'm giving this to my mom for Christmas to maybe go with her campaign desk she redid a while back... because who doesn't want a $15 used chair from a possibly germ and bug invested house under their Christmas tree!?!?!  I kid, I think she's going to pass out when she sees it and since she loves a good deal just as much as the rest of us it will make the gift even sweeter!

And because you may not believe this insane price I included a pic of the tag because if I didn't see it with my own eyes I wouldn't believe me either!!!


And head over to my facebook page if you are bored.  I just added a little class to my Class and Trash inventory with some Lilly Pulitzer items.  Oh and feel free to "like" the page...I'll consider it a belated Christmas gift from you ;)

  2. I love your chair! Why can't I ever find anything at Goodwill. Everytime I go in it all just looks so sad. Sorry to whine so much. Earlier this year I did find a great Jenny Lind twin bed on Craigslist. I painted it a great red in milk paint and have it in my grandson's bedroom. I haven't posted it yet.
