Craigslist Anonymous

Any Craigslist Anonymous groups out there? 
I'm recovering....... from the flu (not the Craigslist addiction. In fact that was pretty much full blown today). 
Despite feeling a little unwell still, I found three things today that I HAD to have.

I found a diamond in the rough!

Someone did a horrible spongepaint job on it, but otherwise it was in fantastic shape! Head board, foot board, wooden rails, wooden casters, and slats. All the ornate wood carving was in near mint condition. 

And the price.....$75! Ding ding ding! We have a winner!
Typically I don't spend quite that much but every once in awhile something comes along that you know you don't want to miss out on.


I know, it doesn't look real exciting like this. But wait until I am finished!

Update VERY soon.

The other two items are also a surprise for a later post.

Did you find anything special this weekend?

I'd love it if you share!

Hope you all had a lovely weekend!!

♥♥

    What a great find. Can't wait to see what you did with it.

    I went to the Nashville Flea Market and brought home a few new goodies. I also bought some for my new Etsy shop that I will be opening soon. Boy, I love a good flea market.

    Take care...

    Oh I can see it's beauty.....can't wait to see it's extreme makeover! Our Craigslist is just not good up our way, I never find a thing! Every thing I find is down your way.... and it would have to be worth the drive, I am cheap!
