Two of my favorite things...thrifting and flowers. I haven't found anything while thrifting the last month or so, so I was happy when I recently found some things at Goodwill. Just small things--but things that make me happy!
First of all I found this little valance for only $2.99!
I think it looks really cute on my pink back door.
It saves me the work of making one and I couldn't buy the lace for that price.
Then I saw this cute little bunny figurine..but it was $6.99. I am on a strict budget so decided I really didn't need it. Then it went on half price an I just had to get it!
Those little bunnies just look too cute sleeping on my front porch
My last favorite find of late was this Simply Shabby Chic pillow sham.
I have wanted this for so long! I have to admit I dove to it to get it before Janae did (sorry Janae) and I was so happy to find it!
My Grandpuppy Bentley found it to be quite comfortable when he was missing his Mama.
This Simply Shabby Chic sham is the one that inspired me to make this pillow awhile ago...
Which seems to be Fez's favorite!
Anyway--got the Simply Shabby Chic pillow sham for $4.99. Gotta love Goodwill!
My flowers are just going crazy...which is another simple pleasure of mine. Thought I would share some photos of my beautiful flowers.
My Peonies this year are huge!
My son, Wyatt, did a double take at my roses the other day and said, "Are those real?"
I consider that a compliment!
To end this post a cute picture of Janae and her babies when they came to visit the other day...
Thanks for visiting!

Your flowers are lovely! Wish that I had your green thumb! Love the valence on the door. Bentley and Fez look like they enjoy their pillows!
That's an adorable photo of Janae and her babies. The valence looks beautiful, as does the amazing flowers. So cute how the cats have found their favorite pillows.
Hi Sandy, as their flowers are beautiful, and the cushions are very beautiful, your daughter is beautiful. AH, I love the appliques from another post very cool here in Brazil and I also really like to buy appliques, they give a special charm. A Bj to y'all.
Great find on the valance and sham, Sandy! Your flowers look gorgeous. I'm waiting for mine to "take off", but we could probably use a little more rain. It has been gorgeous here this week so I'm not in any hurry for the rain.
Your garden is fabulous. I SOOOO wish we had Oregon's climate down here in northern CA. It's gonna get to 110' this weekend around here- breaking a long-standing record. If I wanted to live in Death Valley, I would have moved 300 miles south years ago, thank you very much! :(
Love that valance...you really scored with everything! Our Goodwill's don't ever have any Shabby Chic items, so you are one blessed lady to have found that sham. I love that one too...love the colors in it. Oh..and your flowers are all gorgeous!
OMG Sandy ! I love that Valance! I need it!! LOLOL I would have dove for it too and I'm pretty conservative when shopping LOL. and this post is soo very beautiful! I love every picture and Janae! what a beauty! perfect pic...everything looks perfect and those flowers are certainly going crazy! what are you feeding them! o my gosh I cant wait until my seedlings start blooming, this waiting is making me nuts, never again. I will always have seedlings and plants going on. I love this post, so rich and beautiful to see, it must be rewarding! hugs, lady
I love your shabby chic pillows, what a great find and your pets are so cute. Your flowers are lovely as well, especially the peonies!
Your home is just darling..and your flowers...I must get a rosebush like yours. Is it a climber? Also my peonies are just about to pop open...I really can't wait! Happy weekend.
What great finds! I am so jealous of your gorgeous flowers! I so wish I could grow some like yours!
Love the Valance. Good thing I don't live or it might come up missing! LOL I must take time to go thrifting! The bunnies are darling and your flowers are so pretty. What do you use to fertilize them? Nancy
Sandy,

Sandy have you ever thought about selling pillow covers? I know I would be the first to buy some and I'm sure others would too. I love the pillow cover that you made....it is absolutely darling!!
How I love your new finds! Especially the curtain on the pink door.
Have a wonderful day Sandy, Ciao Rita
