So, I originally was going to post something different for this Frugal Friday, but I found this beauty this morning and just had to share!

And guess where I found her at (hint, this is where the frugal part comes in)?...

One of my FAVORITE places

The Goodwill!

OK, now brace yourselves...

That's right, it was $1.99! And do you see the other sticker? Yep, your right again it was originally from Pottery Barn for $29.00.

Now is that a steal or what!?!

Isn't she pretty? I'm not sure where I will put her, but for now she is in my room where I can look at her all night long.

Happy Frugal Friday!

Frugal Friday

This Friday's post is sooo Frugal it's FREE!!! That's right, you can make this SIMPLE project with stuff you have tucked around the house.

My daughter loves to do art project and brings home piles of them every time she goes to pre-school. She is also a social butterfly and dearly loves her "friends" pictures.

I was tired of seeing art work sitting on the kitchen counter and photos of her friends floating around the house sooo...

All I did was take a piece of ribbon I had stashed in my wrapping supplies and tacked it to the wall and then just used clothes pins to put up the photos.

For her art work I hung a wider ribbon on the wall and used a little heaver gaged clips to hold up the art.

It's such a simple idea, but so useful. She loves seeing her art displayed on the wall and it's very easy to rotate as new art comes in. I hung the photo banner at her height so she can easily see all her "friends" smiling faces.

Now how frugal and easy is that!

Happy Frugal Friday!

Frugal Friday

I Love re-using things that I have lying around the house to make something new and fabulous on the cheap! And since everything outside is dreary and damp, why not bring a little life inside and cheer up your home.

I had these cute little terracotta pots that I bought at a local garden shop awhile ago for $10.00 total...aren't they sweet? And instead of buying new plants to go inside I decided to shop my yard and dug up two succulent starts that were originally given to me.

Happy Frugal Friday!
