Yardsale preparations

Look at how cute this little yardsale flyer is! Who wouldn't want to come to a yardsale with a flyer like this? Anyways it makes me happy....




The scan really doesn't do it justice....

Making last minute preparations, bought bottled water to sell (it is so hot!) still have things to price and things to organize...signs to make, oh and I need to go get change (I was just at the bank and forgot!)

Our sweet friend Hannah is staying the night to help us bright and early tomorrow morning. Praying for dry skies and monetary success! There is a 40 % chance of scattered thunderstorms.

Frugal Floral Fun

My friend Erin brought me the wilting centerpiece from her sister's wedding we all attended this past Saturday. Sandy took half and out of the remaining half I made a beautiful bouquet for our frugal casa...

After:
Not too bad for flowers that sat in the trunk of her car for a few days in the July heat...

Getting started

Ok, I've thought and thought, and put it off and put it off, but I finally found a blog name that hadn't already been taken, and so noooowwww....I'm ready to get started. I want to write this blog for the purpose of sharing all the frugal adventures, as well as fun tidbits from my life that I encounter with friends, family and the web at large in one concise place. I have been away from the habit of writing for quite awhile, but I'm excited for this new adventure. Thanks for sharing it with me....
