Found Treasure!

So, today was kind of boring and I wanted to get out for a bit. My husband took me to T.J.Maxx, I hate going there...don't particularly like the store and everytime I go I spend a ton of $ on stuff....ya never know what you will find. Anyway, I went to look for some dainty little tea cups and saucers for my daughter's tea party (more details to come on that). I found some cute dresses for my daughter and my niece's. I, also came across some wire dress forms...I know that was a hot display item at CHA, and I have wanted one....so here is what I found. Oh, they didn't have a single tea cup....ha!!!
This dress form is about 14 inches tall, it is pink and it was only $10!! I had to have it...I may use it or put it in my daughter's room for her jewelry....

This is a recipe book holder...it is dark silver tone and I love it...I will use it to display a 12x12 album...only $2.50....had to have it!!


Ok...are you ready for the absolute bargain find of the day....I got this dress form for only $3.00....yes 3 dollars...I had to have it.
It is about 24 inches tall and has a base...my idea for this is to make paper flowers and put them on the dress...like one I saw in a pic at CHA!
So, those were my bargains for the day...all three fantastic items for $15.50!!! I know, doesn't take much to make me happy! I guess I am a Maxx-onista now...isn't that what they say on the commercial???? Thanks for looking and have a great weekend!!!
