It's Yard Sale Season!

I have to admit that I've been looking forward to hitting the yard sales. We tend to treat saturday mornings like a date. Just the two of us scoping things out, looking for a great deal. We got up this morning to pouring rain anxious to get started on the first "date morning" of the season. We were so glad we decided to go out into the screaming downpour when we came upon our Find Of The Day, which turned out to be a new bed for our youngest. I love this bed! I can't wait to get started on decorating the room now. I didn't really have a plan for the room before now, but that's just changed. Check out what we found saturday morning:







The bed is from Ikea but seems to fit well into my plan for a French themed room. Better still, the bed adjusts from a toddler size up to a twin size. Yeah, we'll be using this bed for quite some time.

I also located a cloche, jam jar with spoon and a little blue striped crock. Not sure what I'll do with them yet, but I'll think of something.

Rhoda @ Southern Hospitality is having a bit of a show and tell link party of thrift/yard sale items. Check it out, it's amazing what everyone finds!

Great finds!! I need to find a cloche. I think I'm the only one in blogland without one.

Thank you all for taking a minute to leave a comment. I'm now on the hunt for accessories and bedding that will really compliment that bed. I may have to get crafty! I'm positive that we'll be seeing more of this bed and room in the future.

Thanks Ladies!

Great stuff! I have that bed! It's currently taken apart because I'm not using it right now, but I loved it so much that I kept it just in case. ;)
