My recent chairty shop bargains

I'm a few days late on posting this as i had to return a few things as i was to porky to fit in them :( so the post seemed abit pointless with 1 or 2 things in, so here we go my recent charity shop bargains

 Pillow £3.OO
 Can't remember what i paid for this think it was something like £2.5O
 M&S blazer £2.5O
Oasis blazer £3.OO 
 Bow blouse £2.5O
Top for daisie from M&S 8Op

I also got Daisie some books 4Op each :) the perks of being a volunteer is half of this didn't make it onto the shop before because i had grabbed it. If you don't already pop into a charity shop there really is some hidden gems in those places :)

 BEFORE paint, after a good sanding down as it was very grubby
AFTER a lick of paint and taa-dahh


The other day i walked into work and saw a kids ikea table and chairs in the back, it was pretty grubby drawing all over it and one half was caked in paint (i forgot to get a picture of the top before it got sanded down) A little while later my boss asked me if it was any good for my girls of course i said yeah and this baby was mine for £5 
My dad lent me a sander, my partner sanded it down and away i went with sprucing it up :)
after a lick of paint it was a gorgeous table perfect for two little girls 
It needs another coat and a coat of gloss and it'll be complete :)
I'm thinking of added the girls names on the back of each chair too
