Thankful Thursday...

I am always so thankful for so many things. First of all I am really thankful that I am a happy person, really usually I am singing or laughing, it takes alot to get me down. YAY!!
Next I am happy about a couple of projects I did this week. The first is this little ottoman.
I bought the ottoman at the DI for 5 bucks, I bought the fabric as a remnant for $1.78 and the rope tie for $2.79 at Wally World and this is the finale:
Blue Kitty loves it, she thinks I made it just for her! (She just had THE surgery so she is licking her belly:( )

My next project is this cute little desk, the desk belonged to the hubster's parents and has sentimental value, therefore he said I could not do anything to updo it

So while he was away I took some map wall paper I have had for no less than 15 years and some scotch tape
and did this
I love it! It is awesome adorable! The ideal dream would be to Mod Podge it, but when I sent him a pic he said "that better not be my desk grrr" To funny! good thing it is just tape!! But, I betcha he will change his mind when he sees how fantastic it is in person!

So there are to projects I did for less then a total of $10 combined! Fabulous!!

Also, I have recieved two prizes I won lately and I love them, these bottles came in on Tuesday!
And this amazing box of cards came in on Wednesday, wrapped like a wonderful gift!
opening to this beautiful, shiny box-
leading to 100 really good cards for every occasion! and these are not cheesy cards they are truly awesome!
How fun is all this?! The funnest!!

What are you thankful for on this beautiful Thursday?

Until later,
Hugs,
Shelly
