Thrifty Thursday

After nearly a month of no op shopping...I found some great FB bargains and got to go op shopping 2x days!

Two weekends ago I brought this stamping platform off FB - $23

Sunday Clay and I popped into one of our fave oppies.  I found this gorgeous dress $11 - it's a shame it doesn't photograph nicely on the hanger.

Something I have had on my wish list for a while - a child safe knife $2 - perfect for Clay to use when he's helping cook.

Stamp set & stamping block set $2

Pyrex pie dish $2

Earrings $1

Clay found this butterfly pin $1

The FB seller that sold me the stamping platform had some more card making stuff for sale - so after the op shop I picked up a new stamp set $5 and a score board $10.  I was very excited to realise there was an envelope score board on the back!

Monday I had a RDO, so Craig and I went to the movies and lunch and I popped into 3x oppies afterwards. At the first shop I brought a foldable shopping bag $2 - perfect to keep in my handbag

Large vase $4 - I will store my hair clips in this 

At the next shop I found - Tupperware spice container $3

Fabric bags $2 / packet

Bra $4

This fabulous find - a HUGE cane basket $10.  I will swap out one of the plastic toy tubs in the lounge room.

At the final shop I found Woman's Weekly cook books $2 each 

Brand new in packaging Shopkins case $3

Books for Clay $2 each 

A HUGE glass jar $3 - not sure I will store coffee pods in there or use it in my scraproom for storage.

Wirstlets

I made some more wristlets - they are such a quick and easy craft :)

Mosiac Coasters

I brought another Kmart craft kit - mosiac coasters $8.  I loved the gorgeous pink glass tiles :) The instructions were very easy to follow and I enjoyed creating them.

I had some supplies leftover so decided to mosiac one of the bunny keyrings I got at the Bunnings Easter family night.

School Holidays - Week 2

Clay had a busy 2nd week of holidays :)

Monday he went to DEAFinitely Connected and made this really cool wooden lolly dispenser!

Tuesday he was back at DEAFinitely Connected and they went to the circus! It was his first time at the circus and he absolutely loved it :)

Wednesday was free movie (Trolls) with Nanny and Riley, then lunch with Craig.

Thusday he went to Hervey Bay with DEAFinitely Connected to Reef World and have a swim at the beach.

Friday morning he went to the dentist to get his teeth cleaned before having a quiet day at home with Nanny.  He went home with Nanny Friday night for a sleepover, but called at 10pm asking to come home - he wasn't feeling well most of the day, so it was too much and wanted to come home.

Saturday morning we had to pick up Craig's new glasses, so Clay and I did a free activity- making terrariums :) Then we headed to a Hobby Mania day at a card & hobby shop for a look - we got some Lego figurines and had a look at all the displays. After that we headed down to the beach for some lunch - beautiful weather!  After a rest, we went to Lindalee's for a karaoke night - lots of fun :)

School Holidays - Week 1

It was a busy first week of holidays :) Monday was a public holiday and we headed to the Woodgate Easter Fair with Tabs & Torrie.

 Tuesday was Clay's 9th birthday!

Wednesday was an activity at the library - tic tac toe.

Thursday was back to the library - this time to make a wooden bookmark and back home to find a parcel of Pokemon figurines and Pokeball I brought him.

Friday Clay and Nanny had a quiet day at home and baked some biscuits.

Saturday was Clay's birthday party, then spent the afternoon playing with his birthday presents :)

Sunday was a quiet, rainy day at home where we just chilled and did some housework.
