It was 1/2 price day at the Goodwill and a mostly 1/2 price day at the ARC thrift stores….I went to three. My 19 year old daughter went with me, I am training her…..LOL. By the time we were done (and after mom bought her a ton of stuff) she decided she likes to thrift and there was all kinds of cool stuff. Along with 1/2 price day, it was 99 cent jean day. A couple was the first in line and piled the shopping cart full with jeans (obviously re-selling them) This cute elderly lady standing near my daughter said “My, they must have a large family” – too cute ! It was handy bringing an assistant with me , I would say – grab that, watch the cart , you go this way – I’ll go the other….Like I said , she is in training…
Plant stand
1/2 price for $2.50 – solid wood – I was ever sooooo happy !
Afterwards with a little black paint – a beauty.
Minnie Mouse Print and Pooh Prints
She just has no style in browns…..no wonder she was donated !
Look at her now in the spot light ! This print is for my work office – I have a few Disney things and have it displayed on my desk and such. This frame and picture was a buck.
I spotted these Winnie the Pooh prints because I liked the square frames. I decided I liked the pictures but, they needed updating. 
Much more grown up in black. I am taking these to work too ! I got them for a couple of bucks each.
Tables I really don’t need
My hubby would tell you that “We don’t need anymore tables !”
Awwwww, they are sooooo nice………pretty please……..
These next two beauties were so dang cheap – I had to get them. They are in such perfect condition and I might , just might leave them alone….
The end table was $13.99 but…..it was on sale for 1/2 off so it was $6.99
The coffee table – with drop leafs….was $15.99 but, it was also on the 1/2 price sale so it was $7.99
Cross your fingers he will let me KEEP them…..
Hugs ~ Kammy

Wonderful finds and redo's, Kammy!
Wow, to those tables!
It always amazes me how everything looks better when it's painted black! Perfect example are those pictures. They look great! I hope your hubby lets you keep those tables. Doesn't he realize how much money you save him on furniture?!!
Oh, I love the coffee table. I'll take it if you aren't allowed to keep it! LOL. That's awesome you are training your daughter - I know exactly how handy it is having an assitant. Your prints look really cute with the new black frames!
Great finds and I really like the redos! Sure like that black spray paint - I had to make a paint run to L's today. :)
You have some great transformations! I wish my GW had great deals like what you found.
Great finds....it sounds like your GW has FABULOUS things! Ours isn't that great :(
I love that little plant stand now painted black....great re-do.
I'm not a huge cartoon character fan but the black frame transformation is truly remarkable :). Sooooo much better and grown-up in black! I'm a table junky too and have 3 in my basement waiting for some TLC. Hope your hubby let's you keep them!
Love all the tables! Love your redos too, the black table and the prints look Awesome! Great finds!
Love the plant stand and Minnie looks so much better in black! Got my fingers and toes crossed for ya!
The table look's so much nicer in black, good job!
I love it! That little table is so pretty black.
What a difference the black makes on the pictures. I need to come check out the thrift stores in your part of the state. Those tables are nice, especially at that price. Sally
Can't go wrong at those prices. Oh the tables are staying. Of course they are. Just put them in another room for a while and he won't even notice when they edge their way into the main rooms.
Oh, Kammy! You hit the jackpot! I love that little plant stand you painted black! The coffee and end tables are great and what a bargain! Waaaa! I wanna come shop with you! No one around here has 1/2 off sales!
Be a sweetie,
shelia :)
I have been training my kids all their lives! And those last tables--store them, if you don't have great places for them yet. With a 19 y/o, you'll be needing extra furniture one of these days...Thanks for sharing and come over and visit anytime...
Hey Kammy.
Great finds!!
Love all the things you painted black. I t really changes them form ordinary, to exquisite!
Blessings,
Barbara Jean
I am crossing my fingers that you get to keep them!
I love the detail on the little plant stand. The black frames really make the Disney prints stand out, good eye!
Kammy, such great finds! I love the makeovers! They looks so fabulous now! Crossing my fingers for you that hubs will let you keep the extra tables!
Have a good week!
Tina
Wow Kammy! You really did great. I love the new "black" look. I have to remember that.
Kammy you found some great stuff. I love the tables and wow at 1/2 price you can't go wrong. I wish our Goodwill had half off days. Marla
Kammy,
As usual great finds and you just gotta love that black paint. Love those tables.
Sandy
WOW!!! Those prices are great, and I can't believe the makeover on the prints. Much better. :) I've gotten used to thrifting with the kiddos out of necessity. My husband is always working, so he's not home to stay with them on Sat. mornings so I can yard sale. :) Thanks so much for the visit! :)
Great finds this weekend. Black paint does wonders to almost anything. The transformation on the plant stand was great but the difference between the "before" Minnie and the "after" Minnie was incredible. The black frame and mat made all the difference. You not only have a great eye for finding great finds but you definitely have the talent to transform these finds as well. Great job. (OK - I just used the word "great" five times in this comment, guess I need a thesaurus!)
Your tables are unbelievable! Way to go, Kammy! Linda
I am so glad I'm not the only one who thinks everything looks better with black paint! great finds!
Wow, great buys!
I can't believe the prices and how good a job you do to bring it all back to life.
Joyce
Great finds!! Those last two tables were a great deal!! So pretty.
My favorite is the sweet round table with wonderful twisted post!! Great finds!
Well I am super jealous of your Goodwill! Ours just doesn't have good stuff like that, or else I am always a day late!
I love that you are training your daughter! hee hee!!
Hi Kammy, love those table. Wow, what great finds!
Hugs, Barb
Kammy -
Great finds and I love the transformations!! I don't think you could have too many tables LOL especially if they are a great price!
Toni
WHAT!?!?! That't it I'm headed to the thrift store!! and i'm with ya, I always paint EVERYTHING black! It just gives it such a "pop"! Love the tables, and hope you get to keep them too!!!
Hello Kammy - wow, you really hit the jack pot with all your great finds! It's amazing what paint can do. The plant stand and frames look so much better black! Great job!
Blessings,

You did it again girl! Your table looks fantastic and what a change on the prints...amazing!
That's it! I'm off to buy black spray paint!
Wow, you really hit the jackpot on tables! The black table looks great! So elegant now all updated. It's amazing what changing a frame or paint color will do, all your transformations look wonderful!
Thanks Kammy for joining my follower list. I love your blog and have been following you for quite some time. Thanks for the comments on my guest room. Happy thrifting till we talk again. Marla
Kammy, You are table happy! Love them all. I, too, have a fetish for tables... wicker, wood, sticks... LOL
Black paint is your friend, girlfriend! :-) Sue
My daughter has a couple of those Pooh prints in her room also - great finds this weekend!
Wow...I want to shop where you do! You always find the neatest things for such good prices. I'd have a hard time passing up those tables, too. The redo in black looks great!
Wow, what great finds and wonderful redos! I have recently discovered the joys of black paint. It just makes everything look amazing!
Jane
How can you not buy these awesome tables..., for that price. You should start flipping them!
Great finds and I hope you get to keep the tables as I can't wait to see what you do with them.
WOW..what great prices! And who could pass them up!
How can you possibly pass up bargains like that.
I wouldn't have passed them by either. GREAT FINDS and do-overs!
Great finds and redos, Kammy! I love how the coffee table has leaves.
Hope you have a wonderful week!
Oh my gosh! Those tables are just absolutely gorgeous and wow, painted black just makes everything beautiful and new again!
I love the Disney Prints as well, I love anything Disney :).
Wow - it has been a while since I stopped by. You have been busy, girl! I can't believe what a difference a little black paint makes for those Minnie and Pooh prints! And that black check a few posts back is to die for! I love the creative photo through the plastic mirror! Adding you to my follower list now!
Love what black paint can do - everything looks great.

Kammy, I hope you get to keep your treasures!!!! Thanks for stopping by to see my friends little trailer. I loved the black paint job on your table.

I love the plant stand - and how can you go wrong for $2.50?? Thanks for visiting my blog!
Look at that plant stand! You transformed it something special. I really love it. I need you to come to Florida and give me spray paint lessons! Have you been to Walt Disney World here? Let me know if you come, because I love the characters too and I am only about 40 minutes away from Mouseland. I would love to meet up with you someday and see that lovely smiling face in person.
