Garage Sale Treasures

I'm sure this will be a series on here!

Is "garage sale-ing" a verb??? I am never sure how to say it, but regardless, it's one of my favorite things to do on a Saturday morning! What is funny is that it's because of my husband, Ben, that we go- he is even more passionate about finding good deals than I am! It's a family affair, his whole family gets involved and all of our houses (and garages...) bear the fruits of our labors.

Today was no different. We have managed to get nautical themed things for my 3-year-olds room from garage sales over the last year but today was the big find. I've been wanting something to put on his wall that has the color scheme that I'll use for his bedding, furniture and window treatment. Check out what we got for $10! (it's priced on the back at $139)




It's HUGE, which is great because my toddler's room is fairly large too. I'm going to get some red paint and add a little to it to make it pop next to my red rugby striped rug on the floor.
