Thrifty Finds & The Truth About My Kitchen

I did my fair share of needlepoint and counted cross stitch 'back in the day'. I don't have enough time or patience for it these days.  I still love needlepoint, petit point, and Aubusson pillows and rugs. They can be rather costly, so when I find a decent price on something I will grab it up real fast.  I was fortunate to find these at a yard sale.



 This is Mason's favorite
He carries him around a lot!
We named him Pugsly



 This is little Penelope


Pugsly and Penelope are weighted on the bottom
I guess that's so they can stand up
 

They are super clean and still have their "Waverly" tags on
For now, they are just being cute on my little gate leg table.

It's really just a big parking lot for Mason!!!

  7. I know there are times when you probably don't think so, Rhonda {like when you trip over a Tonka}, but I think those are the best accessories a room can have! : )

  8. What wonderful finds! I love needlepoint pillows but haven't found any I can afford yet. I'm always on the look-out thought. I definitely need to try yard sales. I'm visiting from Savvy Southern Style too. Thank you for visiting my blog and your sweet comment. I can't wait to "dig" into your blog and get to know you. I am loving these pics of your home!

  9. My countertops are always covered with nascars racing! I wouldn't have it any other way though as I am sure you wouldn't either! Kids grow too fast! Your dog pillows are adorable!
