Copy cat Challenge is ON! (Magazine and Blogger copies}
I wanted to join DeebieDoos Copy Challenge,
but thought I had nothing and
would not have time to throw something together.
But then I remember that I had copied
The Frugal Homemaker mantel
for my RED, WHITE & BLUE July the 4th.
So thought I would share.
Don't miss out, jump on over and see all the neat things that have been shared.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I wanted something different for the mantel
As we all do I began to search the web.
I came across this mantel that I really like and
begin to think I can do that.
I didn't ask permission but
The Frugal Homemaker
was my favorite.
Please go over and check out her site.
Sorry still learning how to insert.
After seeing this I knew this was the one and
I began to think what do I have?
So the search began.
I searched my containers and went from room to room.
I even went to the dirty storage building. YUK!
The best part is dear ones the only thing that
I did purchases new is the small wagon.
Now here is really the best part
it was only $1.00 at a garage sale!
I say YAHOO to that <;)
