Happy January steals!

Just a few small things I'm happy about this month so far:


I love having a wreath on the door, it puts a smile on my face every time I walk inside regardless.
I got the idea from a friend, then rummaged through the DI box and found an old book, and you can see what happened next.
cost: 1$


Ok, so Skyler will tell you I actually got these in December, but I didn't fully comprehend the deal I got until January. This is a giant bag full of vintage metal zippers of all sizes and colors!
Awhile ago a friend told me about a certain thrift shop on your way out to the coast in Vernonia. So at Christmas, we stopped and I found these...no price tag. They weren't free, but I offered 5 bucks for the bag and the guy threw in a cool belt!

Cost: 130+ metal zippers for $5

This one isn't really a steal but I thought I should document it anyway. Today was Hayley's first day at a Childcare center! WSU has a neat evening care set up for Graduate students, so it's free!
So during her nap I made her a little backpack to bring.
She wouldn't touch it. Apparently I made a scary backpack.

I don't have pictures to show for it, but last night I ordered 2 canvas prints that I'm REALLY excited about. I got it through Groupon, used a couple credits I had-
Cost: $25 for $160 of canvas prints.

Happy January!
