A great wicker chair I found at a thrift store in Austin a few weeks ago. $10! It's hanging out in the guest room for now. May stay there permanently. (My paint really does not look like a baby poop yellow in real life! Swear!)
A chandelier I found yesterday for $15. Wasn't sure if it would look ok since our kitchen table has wicker and black iron accents, but I figured it would be fine since we have silver/stainless accents throughout the kitchen (your thoughts on the mix of black and silver? I see it on HGTV shows and it seems to work ok).
It sure beats the ugly ceiling fan the previous owners had up there!
Not a thrift store find, but since we put up the new chandelier, Hubs and I bought a new pendant light tonight to go over the sink. It just had the ugly builder-grade brass fixture with ugly plain globe. I hated it. I've been wanting a pendant light. Hubs picked out this new one. Wasn't my first choice, but I like it.
And just for grins...we took Cissy to the dog park today...

I have the best memories of the dog park when my puppy was alive!! She had the most fun there. Super cute pups!
I LOVE silver and black together! Also...super cute chair! I can't believe it was only $10. Great find :)
I really like the pendant light over the sink. It's kind of making me regret my recessed lights.
Great thrift store finds! That chandelier looks great!
I like silver and black together. I really like the pendant light over the sink. Great deal on the wicker chair.
Looks like Cissy was having fun! I can't take mine to the dog park b/c they won't come back to me! I have to make everyone remove their dogs (or wait til it just happens) in order for my dogs to finally take a little break and sit down...and even then I have to sneak up on them to catch them! They never want to leave.
Our living room/dining room color shows up funky in photos too. *smiles*
Love the pendent light and chandelier. They just really make a room. (small changes)
Oh and the chair is an awesome find!
Great fines!!!
Great finds at the thrift shops!
Love your thrift store finds. I'm sure that chandy looks great with a black table! Love the pendant too!
Great find...I love it!

Don't you just love how sometimes your camera makes things look like colors they totally aren't...like poop yellow walls? I did a post recently on my bedroom "makeover" and a couple people commented on the "nice blue walls"....and I was like...umm, they are brown. A darker shade of it too.
I can't believe the awesome scores you got at your thrift store! I mean wow!! I just always seem to find junk at mine.
Okay, I NEVER find deals like that at my thrift stores! Love the chair!
Great bargains! I really like the new pendant light too. We need to do the same thing very soon!!
Way to go on the great thrift finds. Just recently I found a tiny little apothecary jar (in my latest post), plus LOTS of great jewelry to use as charms and such in future craft projects.

Love the new lovely touches!
Hey woman! I am behind on my blog reading! Love your new finds and your vacation pictures; I felt like I was there:) Sorry about Baby. I've been thinking about you!!
The wicker chair looks wonderful in the guest room! I also love the pendant light you put up above your kitchen sink! :) The chandelier in your dining room is beautiful! :)
