~My Country Store Buys & Kindra's B'Day Giveaway~

Hi everyone, I hope you are all having a wonderful day and getting caught up on all that you have to do. After I post this I'm on my way to JoAnn Fabrics to pick up a few things so as I promised here are my prim things that I bought with my earnings at the yardsale!
I only paid $19.99 for this at the Country Store so I snatched it up only because they didn't have to many left, I love the colors in it and it is so soft which surprised me, I thought they would feel rough and scratchy.
I have it on the rocking chair in my bedroom for now, I just love it!!! Can't wait to get the goods to make one!

Thursday I went to get my hair colored and cut and once a month I stop at the Craft Mall near there. Didn't see much that I really needed until I saw this runner done in black,grunged ticking. I did need something for the back of my toilet and it goes so well:0


I also bought these two baskets for my daughters birthday on September 1st, she is hanging them from a beam in her kitchen:)



Don't you just love this bowl, I've been wanting one forever and the plate holder with the stars, reminds me of the Country Sampler pages, I always see one of these in their photos. I haven't put anything out yet (just to take pics for today) I want to wait until I decorate for fall:) I bought this at the Country Store.

Now this is Kindra's new giveaway...just such a talented girl, would look great with my other ones...hint, hint:)


Kindra is celebrating her birthday and all you have to do is leave a comment on her blog and to get a 2nd chance just post it on your own blog, this is also open to non-bloggers too! Don't forget...I'll be posting my first giveaway on my 100th post to celebrate, which will be the next time I post, have a great day!

  1. Rondell,

    It's fun spending "extra" money like yard sale earnings! It's fun to me knowing I sold something or made the extra and then the challenge of spending it wisely! I love all your goodies! I would be happy to have any of them!

    And I really love Kindra's giveaway! I could picture it in my kitchen! :)

    Have a great Tuesday!

  9. Rondell I love everything you bought. I have been eyeing that same bowl. I too want one, but can't afford it. The chair pad is so awesome. I love the dark colors they used. I have pattern to make rugs like that, but haven't tried them yet.

    Those baskets will look great on a beam.
