Hope everyone had a great Easter Sunday today...mine was great! Breakfast with my daughter and granddaughter and spend a good part of the day with Mom. I stitched and she cooked...she wanted to do chicken and dressing...and I did not argue with her! It was tasty!Then, she asked me to go back to Family Dollar and get her two boxes..."like you got yesterday". Ha! I knew she could not resist!So, off I went in search...and got the last two! AND, look what else I found while there! The little chests are just adorable, and I love the trash can too. There was a larger one, which would be great with towels rolled up inside...or fabric! But, I settled on the smaller one. I'm thinking that it is small enough to fit behind my machine, and catch all of my strings and such.Treasures...just treasures! 
Well, first off...my muse and I actually agreed on something today! Two things....first, we hate yard sales!...not going to them, Having Them! And, actually WE didn't have one...my sister and sister-in-law did...in my (Mom's) front yard. I didn't even help out...and I'm just tired from walking around all day! My muse is just upset because she didn't get anything done..and none of the clothes fit her!Second thing we agreed on, is that we love sales!
And especially when they are sales on cardboard boxes...pretty cardboard boxes and cardboard trays!
Wanted to share...if y'all have a Family Dollar store near you...then, RUN, do not walk...and get some of these! (sorry to all the ladies that don't have this store near you...especially you international girls. But, you can drool over these and then reciprocate by sending me photos of all the luscious lace and pretties you can get that I can't....hugs!!) I went looking for Easter Candy sales...but got little of that. Found these boxes in four sizes...and got the smallest two sizes only. Then when I went to check-out...saw this lovely matching trays...got four of them!
Smallest Lid Box is 8 x 10 inches. ($4)
Medium Lid Box is 10 x 12 inches. ($5)
Trays are 9 x 12 inches ($2)and DID YOU SEE THE PRICES!
Run before these are all gone!These are so pretty holding your threads, ribbons, and fibers...and keep them together.(they also are good to stash candy in; so hubby (or granddaughter) can't find it...just saying!)Oh, and if you have a desk...these trays would make lovely IN and OUT boxes!
Well, I did. I mean, I have a lot...but like diamonds...you can never really have enough! Especially when you find glorious colors like these...at a great, great price too!
And, check out the candle...lace...and charms! Love all of my goodies!Oh, you want to know where I got such a great deal!Sure, I'll share...www.crazyquiltingsupplies.comNow, isn't that easy to remember!
