Frugalicious Friday Favorite!



Frugalicious Friday is slowly growing every week, and I'm loving all the fabulous finds and Diy projects you've linked up! Thank you to everyone who has participated, every new link on the MckLinkey list makes me smile from ear to ear.

Kate from her blog The Gaines Gang linked up one of my favorites. Kate is a self described thrift store junky and creative soul. Her blog features a little bit of everything from thrifty decorating to cooking to even a glimpse of her amazing vintage book collection!

Kate's post was titled: "Doin' Halloween the Goodwill way". Take a look at these super thrifty Halloween decorating ideas.

Here's the frame Kate started with. Don't you just love a super "ugly" before picture! She snagged this baby at Goodwill for just .90 cents.

And after some spray paint, scrap book paper and glittered up plastic house numbers, look how cute this is...so fun and creative!


And how spooky is this little accessory? Kate found this mini brass candlestick for just .50 cents. It was so dark she didn't even need spray paint. She just used spray adhesive and Martha Stewart super fine black glitter. How easy is that? Love, love this idea!

Thanks Kate for linking up! And if you haven't visited The Gaines Gang yet, swing by for a visit when you get the chance...she's got many more creative ideas and her blog is a lot of fun!

I was very into framing decorations this year, so I just love this idea!

Thanks for hosting, Jane. I've been having a lot of fun linking up. When I buy stuff now I wonder if it is worthy of a Frugalicious Friday post! : )
