Frugalicious Friday...and a Giveaway!

...

Oh yeah...it's Friday and welcome to the 15th edition of Frugalicious Friday!  This day's all about sharing your fabulous, thriftiest, most frugalicious home decor finds!  And if you revamped your find in fab Craft or Diy project, well tell us about that too...we can always use a little extra Diy inspiration!  Are you new to Finding Fabulous?  Here are the guidelines for this fun day that's all about $aving! 

Okay let's get this linky party started!  Today I am thrilled because the lovely Trixie from Flea Market Trixie is offering one of her fab creations for a giveway.  More on that in a sec, but first let's get to know Trixie shall we?  Trixie loves estate sales, garage sales and of course...flea markets!  Her passion is finding older pieces that have seen better days, and she simply makes them beautiful again, period.  Take a look at some of her fabulous designs and creations:

Here Trixie slipcovered this chair, painted this table, and revamped these accessories too!  Can you tell what her favorite design style is?  Yup, you guessed it...she is cottage/shabby chic all the way...love it!


Check out this fabulous hutch!  In it's past life it was black.  Trixie went lighter with the color and brought this piece back to beautiful!  I love how she accessorized this old piece too...perfectly vintage!


Now if you're wondering how you can get Trixie's style, look no further because she's got her own etsy shop too!  Check out these adorable items for sale right now at FleaMarketTrixie - Etsy:





Ca-ute!!  Be still my heart...I think I'm in love with her shabby chic style! 

Well...I am excited, because today the one and only Trixie from Flea Market Trixie is offering this fabulous burlap crown pillow from her etsy shop for our giveaway here at Finding Fabulous!  All you need to do is link up your fabulous finds, crafts or Diy projects and consider yourself entered!  Yup, it's that easy! 


Okay, so link up and share those fabulous finds, because we want to see how you $ave!  I'll be announcing the winner of this giveaway in my Frugalicious Friday recap post on Tuesday of next week!  As always, thanks for linkin' up and best of luck!

Ooooh, love that pillow! That would look great on the new desk chair I just ordered for my living room! I follow Trixie as well and enjoy reading her posts. I think my favorite was about the curtains you show in the picture of her living room. I'll be linking up!
