Frugalicious Day!!

I managed to sneak this in today.  I love playing along over at Finding Fabulous.  It is the day you get to share your frugal finds. 

Pic below are all thrift store finds and not intended for Christmas, but have worked out great for my decorations this year!!!  The bucket I bought for 1.75.  It was even more than I wanted to give, but after fretting over 75 cents decided to go with it!!  The gold candle was a buck, candle holder a buck, holiday picks at Dollar Tree 2 for a buck, cranberry star a buck from Dollar tree.  Happy with how this turned out.

I am infatuated with all of the mercury glass floating around blogland.  The glass below came with one my dollar candlesticks, a little dated and almost threw it away.  Not very frugal huh?  It was standing still, lets paint it, so I decided to go for a "faux" mercury glass look. 

I used silver and caramel latte Krylon spray paint.  I used short bursts alternating colors and while not perfect, I think not bad for frugal!!
