LOOK WHAT I GOT!

Do you remember my post from January 9th and the shopping I did at Tender Heart Treasures? Well here is the shipment I received last week.
My daughter was over and helped me unpack these boxes. My husband was also watching and we were actually amazed at the quality of everything I received. The picture below isn't everything I ordered. I also got a beautiful cloth shower curtain with cute button loops at the top for like $5.00. Got a couple of tin signs for like $1.99 each and several other things. The large acorns look so cute in this wire bowl that I had which was missing it's glass liner. I plan on doing a tree with just pine cones and thought the red and white ones would be really cute on it. The little lighthouse pictures are tin and so cute. (gift for next Christmas) The 3 shots of the birdhouses is a swag.

The two pictures on the bed are huge and will be hanging them in my guest room that has no pictures up yet! I love the Rooster sign in red painted metal and it will be going up in the kitchen. (Headless Mom close your eyes) The photo of the bowling pins was something that I found on Urban Outfitters, they are like 3 inches tall, blown glass and I will use them next Christmas for bowling gifts. Got them for like $2.99 each, originally $10.00. I love a great sale!

These cute little Willow Tree pieces were recently added to my collection when I went and shopped at a Hallmark store in the area that was closing with 50% off everything. These are actually new pieces and I was so happy to get them. I ended up buying all the cards I need for the year and then some. I know that a few people couldn't understand why I would buy so many and I told them that I went through my calendar and bought accordingly. I would be buying them anyway so why not save 50%!



Go on out and find a great sale!

Wow. This stuff is all so very cute! I love Willow Tree stuff. Our nativity set is all willow tree. Very beautiful stuff.

I'm not good at buying things on sale. I know I should be, but I guess I lack the patience. :(

What a terrific haul. I LOVE sales. I think you are SO smart to buy all your cards at a sale, I would have done the same thing.
Enjoy your treasures.

OMG I love those acorns! Looks like quite a haul.

Ya know, I used to buy anniversary and birthday cards at the beginning of the year for everyone and I got away from it. I should do that again. It would be much easier.

I will have to check out the Tender Heart Treasures. It sounds like a catalog I used to order from. You did good! What a haul!
I love the willow pieces, I have a couple and have gotten my daughter a couple.
Thanks for sharing.
