Hello Hello! Have you been as busy as I have been? I can only imagine that you have. I am now I am happy to share a living room update, thrifting, and deals.
I have been to just about every thrift store around looking for a new coffee table. Ours is just a little too large for our space. One day I dropped Hubby off at work, saw a Garage Sale sign, and I pulled right in. Looky what I found!!
Yep, I found a new coffee table for $15. He had it marked for $20 but I got it for $15-SCORE! Still wondering if I should paint her. What do you think?
After visiting and looking through several thrift stores the same day, I found this beauty for $3:
It’s a true vintage mirror. It was leaning up against the shelves, on the floor. Just waiting for me to pick her up. I saw the shape and the price and I KNEW I needed her.
I know I shared my living room update a few weeks ago. I mentioned then that I was looking for a new rug.
I shopped and shopped for a new rug. While I looked and browsed I found these candlesticks:
Don’t you love the color blue and the mercury glass together? SO pretty and again, calling my name to buy them…
Can you see why I NEEDED them?? Look at that price!! Target was good to me that day.
While still rug shopping, I bought 3 rugs. Tried them all out, and nothing seemed to work until I found this lovely…
Again, at Target. Doesn’t the rug look great with my $15 coffee table? Love it!!
With the coffee table and new candlesticks, this place is looking great!
Doesn’t she look lovely with the bookshelves???
Here’s the difference:
Yep, I would say I made a great choice. It is light, with a bold print, and just the right colors to add in our living room.
I would say my living room update, thrifting and deals were a great success, wouldn’t you???
What good deals have you found recently? What have you been looking for for awhile to change up your home? For me it was a rug. I am so happy to have finally found one just right for us.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I am blessed to have you here.
Make it a terrific Tuesday!
I share little bits and pieces of my blog and life on:

The rug makes a huge difference in the room. It’s just the right touch. Love all your thrift store finds!! I like the contrast the coffee table gives to the whole room. My vote is to keep as is, but I know whatever you decide, it will look amazing! Beautiful room!!
Meegan says
Thanks Crystal. You always say the nicest things.

Looks great! What a difference a few accessories can make to a space! I love the rug, but I am IN love with those mercury glass candlesticks you found!
Meegan says
Laura,
Thank you very much. I love the candle sticks, too. They were the icing on the cake after buying the rug :)
Joel Jones says
You are amazing in your shopping! I had to laugh when you showed the stickers on the bottom of those candle stick holders, otherwise the prices might not have been believable. Amazing!
Yes, I think you should paint the coffee table and I think it is a better size for the room. Keep on having fun because we all enjoy and just shake our heads!
Love!

Wow! You had a great shopping day! Those candlesticks are awesome and such a score! And I love the coffee table too. I’m usually the first person to say paint it, but I like the contrast of the dark wood. Lovely!
Meegan says
Thanks Tricia! It was really fun. I am glad you stopped by for a visit. Come back again real soon.
