Goodwill Grabs

This weekend my mom and sisters came to spend a little quality time together. It was good spending some time with them. We hit up the area Goodwill stores, a plant sale, and tons of neighborhood rummage sales. I scored a few cool things along the way.

Check out what I found at Goodwill!! Cute right?


I think it was $6. It's fairly hefty, which is good because I decided to fill it with birdseed and hang it on the front porch, off to the side of my porch swing.

A couple hours later...

Success!

I really like it too! I can't believe I contemplated (even for a second) NOT getting it! I've noticed I have one bird that seems to think it's HIS birdseed and likes to chase some of the others away... but maybe his nest is nearby...?
