The $5 Goodwill Challenge is back! This is the Christmas Edition. If you’re not familiar with the rules of the challenge, I will recap for you. Hilary from ”My So Called Home” has started these challenges on YouTube and we just LOVE them.
The Challenge:
You can go to a Goodwill, thrift store, garage sale, etc. You can’t go over $5. YAY! Then whatever you buy you can alter it, paint it etc. Then you have to incorporate it into your home decor.
Here’s what I found on my hunt. The greenery was $1 the snow globe was $2.99. Black Friday sales were everywhere. Which meant everything was half off that day Whoot-hoot….” Yes”! Even at Goodwill.
The greenery was in good condition but… it just needed a little freshening up. The styrofoam have seen better days but, it needed to be replaced. Only spending $2.00 at goodwill I was able to get it and I stayed under budget. I used floral cleaner which not only smells good but it actually gets it clean.
After a much needed cleaning. I assembled everything back together.
In need of some Christmas decor on my living room coffee table. I decided to start there. After cleaning the greenery and letting it dry for a while I added some of my own little touches. Cinnamon pine cones, faux Holly berries and nuts were added for interest and color.
There wouldn’t be a Christmas without a snow globe. This lucky guy looks perfect in his new home.
Wine buckets are not just for wine…. I placed some faux Amaryllis inside it adds to the festive look.
