The best find on the planet---except for that one (lol)--for me at Goodwill.  Let me clarify....Almost everything I get is from Goodwill.   I LOVE Goodwill.  And IKEA but I never get to go there.

I got this buffet for $19.  One of the legs broke off of the bottom left front corner.  But was still there.  I mean in the drawer there.


Looks darker than it is.  I did get a new camera.  I will have to take better pictures.  It also depends upon whether or not I am using my camera or my phone.

To continue.....One day I opened one of the doors, and the panel fell out.  I wish I thought to get a pic of that, but I did not think of doing my blog this way till about a week ago....so.....I dont have one.  No big whoop.

I have been trying to get color into my LR since I painted the ceiling.  I have been trying to do the peacock decor thing for a few (3) years now.....before it was popular....lol...(I am such a trailblazer).  My daughter always says that we like it first then EVERYBODY has to do it.  All of a sudden it is popular.  AFTER we spent hours and hours looking in vain for stuff and finally make it or do without.  THEN it becomes available in stores all over the place!!  LOL....she is right though.

ANYWAY....I had this fabric laying around that Daughter #2 (for birth order, she spoke above)...found in Joannfab that looked peacocky before they came out with all the stuff.  So I bumped out the other panels....very easily I might add.  WAY easier than I thought a nice piece of wood furniture should be to get out a main part of the door. So I thumb-tacked pieces of the fabric into the opening of the panel.  I kept the panel pieces jic I change my mind and want to put them back.  I have been pondering putting it in the DR and using it for what it is supposed to be used for. (dangling participle or whatever...ending a sentence with a [insert correct term here])  But we dont care because everyone is not perfect.

I was going to add something, but I forgot.  Here is what it looks like now.



I remember.....it does not seem to change the integrity of the doors....they still seem solid.  I am not sure I like the seethroughness of the material (I know it is not a word)....You can see all my Partylite candles.  It is nice to be able to spend the money I save going to goodwill on important stuff.....like expensive candles...LOLOLOLOL.


I hope to post all kinds of things....not just crafts.  Have a great day!!!
