Feast Your Eyes, and DROOL!

I love the curves and handles! You can also tell that we like Root Beer and Cream Soda at our house 

Just down the street fromwhere we (Jen) live, is an apartmentcomplex. For the last month or so, there has been a mini yard sale every weekend and sometimes during the week. I havedriven by and drooled over this little black desk so many times I can't evencount; but I kept telling myself, they probably want more for it than I amwilling to pay. Today, while on the way to put up found dog signs, I decided wewould stop just to put my curiosity to rest. Taped to it was a pieceof paper with a big red $5. $5!! I immediately went into survival mode.....MUST....HAVE....DESK!

 I should have kept my eyeson just the desk but silly me wondered what else they had. I turned my head andsaw a hexagon shaped end table. I have been searching Goodwills up and downthis city (along with neighboringcities) looking for an end table ofthis shape but hadn't found one that I liked enough to spend $10+ on. I sawanother piece of paper with a red $5. Can you say WOWZERS? I looked to Mr.Awesome who gave me the look of "I completely support you Mrs. Awesome" Girls, he is amazing, andnot for sale, be jealous! 

I think the girl saw that Iwas a sucker for a $5 price tag. She brought out this stand and immediatelysaid $5? I couldn't resist. I loved the curvy posts and it was in pretty decentshape.   She continued to try and talk me into buying a very large metalside table with thousands of palm trees on it, the dog (ugliestbut cutest little Wiener Chihuahua mix), acouch that was upstairs in her apartment (but she would gladly goget it for me),  and then asked if I would come back becausethey would have more furniture later (I might actually drive bylater...it is right by our house afterall...)

 Overall, Ifeel like I hit the mini jackpot; 3 pieces for $15. I can't wait to give thesepieces a little TLC and see how they turn out.
