Peggi Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Ok, so I had to run to town to get a prescription of DH, and I also wanted something to finish my roof of the Snow White WO cottage, but any Michaels or Hobby Lobby is just to close to Atlanta especially today being the home of Rev. Martin Luther King, so I did not want to fight the traffic. (It's bad any day, but given a holiday no way am I putting my life in danger) We only have a convenience store here in Flovilla, and Jackson doesn't have much of any stores but groceries, gas stations and auto parts places except we do have a Dollar General and as Special 10 store. I stopped at both and found some great deals. Found one blown glass chair and vanity type thing and a beautiful blown glass fountain--for $1 a piece and then at the other store, they had a few Christmas things left for 75% off and I found trees that will fit perfect in scale for .25 each. Also for .25 I found crocheted doilies in green and red that I think will make perfect throw rugs. Then I hit the artificial flower section and for $1 a stalk I found the green leaves that (thanks to idea from Deb (bird house) and PapaSquirrel (squirrel house) I believe I will use for the roof of the Cottage. Here's some pictures of my goodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esther Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Peggi, You need to post a picture of the white orchid after you put the leaves on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAK Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Also for .25 I found crocheted doilies in green and red that I think will make perfect throw rugs. Aren't they great for rugs Peggi? I use them all the time. I love the bargains you got. -_- That fountain thing would look marvalous in my chapel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
