Decorating on a budget…
Ok be honest what is the strangest thing you have ever used as a decoration?
Growing up with a very frugal, and creative Mom she was always turning trash to treasure. No joke… really she should have her own DIY show, she is amazing! I wish I got a little more of her talent… but I did get her frugal nature.
Anyway so on with my story, a few weeks ago I went to a yard sale. I picked up a few items and was ready to pay when I noticed in the back of they yard they had what looked like a pile of weeds and they had a sign of them that said FREE. At first I thought it was a joke… who knows maybe it was. But as I got closer I noticed that these “weeds” were rather fun looking and I really kind of liked them.
I have been wanting some tall grass or something to stick in one of my vases, but did not want to pay the $25 the craft store was charging. So I picked up a handful of them and brought them home with me. Stuck them in my vase… and well I really kind of like them. I still have no idea what they are, but these “FREE WEEDS” sure made my day.
Do any of you have fun stories of trash to treasure?
