Prairie Eco-Thrifter

JANUARY 30, 2014

Since there were four chairs and only three fit at the island, we repurposed the fourth chair by painting it and using it as a decoration in our spare bedroom. We painted the chair white (it used to be espresso brown) and freshened up the beige suede seat with a mustard color fabric that went well with the room. Go Frugal'

I save tape and paper and old paint drop sheets. I had to part with $35 to buy one of those paint masks to even be able to apply it. Plus, the styles that fit are usually made by the high end manufacturers and carried in exclusive (expensive) clothing stores. Help me out, am I being cheap or just smart about money?

Fashion changes and new or nearly new clothing gets sold at sales or donated to charity. Here is a short list of some of my favorite finds at garage, estate and thrift store sales. Hubby re-painted it and has used it for many things around the yard and grounds. I hate waste and I see it all the time. Do You Save Wrapping?
