Features From TTF #118

Diann and I want to thank all of you for joining us this week for TTF!!  So many great posts!
( When looking at posts to feature, I noticed some of you did not have a link back to TTF and The Thrifty Groove,  Remember you must have a link back to the party host on your post to be featured)

My first feature is from Denise...on a Whim!

Be sure to check out how she turned a $5 piece of 'junk' into an adorable pie safe!
I just love creative bloggers!

Which brings me to my other feature from Vicky at
She took a couple of light fixtures that we all see at thrift shops and yard sales and turned them into the cutest solar lights!! 

I love TTF for all the inspiration I get from each of you every week! 
 See you tomorrow for TTF #119
And don't forget to visit Diann and see her features this week!

Charlie Kitty

Charlie has settled in pretty well to his new digs!
He stays close to me but I see him getting more comfortable every day! 
Today this made me so happy!
I've been waiting for Charlie to discover this window so he can sit and look outside.
Now that we have moved we no longer have the screened porch 
which was Charlie's favorite place!
Seeing him enjoy looking out the window is a favorite thing!
Mama are you taking my photo again??
Yes my sweet kitty boy I am! 

I'm joining Claudia for

Wishing you JOY,

Linda

Thrifty Things Friday #118

Join Diann and I and link up your post HERE

During my move I'm sending more to the Thrift Shops then I'm bringing home...
thank goodness! 
BUT...
of course I have found some things for my new place!

I really needed chairs for my dining room table and look at this!  I found four of these amazing chairs at the Project Safe House thrift shop!
Look at the backs!   
They are pretty old and have had some repair done to them but they are sturdy and comfortable!
I took the thrift my four ladder back chairs and brought these home!  I love them!
I paid $35 and felt like this was a super bargain!
This thrift store is my favorite one in Athens, GA.
I donate to them and purchase from them often.  They have great prices and the money supports a great cause 'working to end domestic violance'
So I love spending my money here!

I also found these cute glasses at another thrift shop
Just some random glasses that caught my eye! 
Less then $1.50 for all! 

I hope you will go over to 
The Thrifty Groove and link up you posts!
I can't wait to see what you have to share this week!

Wishing you JOY,

Linda

Features from TTF #117


Once again Diann and I are so thankful for all of you who join us for Thrifty Things Friday!
This week I had a hard time choosing but these two are a couple of favorites

Lynda Bergman Design shared a wonderful way to capture memories with this charming shadowbox.
She kept sand from her daughter's first sandbox and this photo to create a lasting memory!

Land of EnCraftment found some really thrifty things to share with us, but this stunning cabinet was my favorite!
I can just imagine this filled with all my treasures!
