It's been a while since I have gushed about the awesome deals I scored. I had a rainy Sunday to myself and had spent enough time with these faces:
So I donned my rain jacket and headed over to the Bama Flea Mall in Leeds, AL. I was on the hunt for a shabby chic lamp shade for a lamp I am currently transforming (check back when I complete that project). I walked the aisles at my leisure. I found a Scottie dog for my terrier collection for $6.
I personally thought he was a little expensive, but I could live with the price and I really liked him, so he went in my basket. I also found a vendor who sold Circle E candles. I bought these all the time in Florida and Georgia, but this the first time I found them here. Unfortunately they were out of our favorite scent. At least I know where to look.
But NO LAMPSHADES! So I expanded my search to Trussville. None of the stores had what I was looking for (*tear, Hobby Lobby is closed on Sunday. I know why, and respect them for that. BUT, I only want to eat Chick-fil-A and need to shop at Hobby Lobby on Sunday). I ducked in to CATO's and scooped up a couple of CUTE dresses. The black one is a strapless Maxi dress ($12) and the blue one is a simple v-neck dress good for church or HOT summer days ($14). No trip to Trussville is complete without a stop by Marvin's. You gotta get by there and take advantage of these awesome picture frames:
And since I am talking about Keith- I have to brag on him! Friday he brought me these gorgeous flowers home:
Love the scottie dog. Fresh flowers are always a treat.

Holy Cow! There is a Marvin's in Calera, and I have never been. I didn't know they had such great stuff! I am so going to get one of those ladder shelves!
ReplyDeleteYes! The Marvin's in Calera is all new and very nice. You just never know what you might find there.
ReplyDeleteHi, Rachel, I hope you will help spread the word on the showhouse, that would be great! All the info is there on the blog post that I have for now. Tickets will go on sale later & I'll announce that too. Thanks!
ReplyDeletecute post and little dresses. I love your doggies. We have a beagle that needs a buddy so we are on the hunt for his new buddy. Next time I go thru AL on my way to NC, I'll give you a wave.
