So, I have been on the hunt for something for P's bed that would coordinate...the cowboys weren't doing it for him & they didn't match! Anyhoo, I came across this quilt...
I thought it would be perfect...checked with Melissa (she still has the bumper)...and decided it was going to be perfect. PROBLEM...it was WAY, WAY out of the range I would normally pay for kids bedding. So, I sat on it. Looking for something else, always coming back to this. Well today I found something else that I thought I could MAKE work, but before I committed I came back to this quilt one more time! Boy was I suprised when I clicked on it and low and behold it was on sale. I mean MAJORLY on sale...50%! Sold. I got the quilt and shams for less that I had originally budgeted for P's new bedding! Keep in mind that the sheets won't have planets on them!
Now I will just have to decide on paint colors....the boys room needs to have some serious touch-ups done to the original paint job....bad paint, not bad painters!! So I am thinking I might as well do something completely different!
I also need a dresser for one of the boys. Anyone have one they want to get rid of? I am willing to pay/trade, whatever you need! I am looking for a dresser and not a chest of drawers. Call me if you have something or know where I can get one....again, think bargain!
Okay, I do have a few more church things to finish before Easter Sunday, but I was so pumped about my bargain I just had to share!
P.S. Russ I know that you are probably not going to make it this far through this post, but I know you get excited about good deals as well...the el cameno (how do you spell that anyway?)!!!
