Even thought I was gone on vacation almost haft of the month, I’m still really glad I joined this challenge this month! But thankfully, there’s a 5th week!!!
If you would like to see what happened during the previous week, here are the links :
Shelves up there : check!
Clean down here : check!
I also made :
Cute crochet baskets for decoration
and upgraded my fabulous plastic trash can 😋
yay!
I said I wanted to add an accent color and was thinking about green. Here are my purchases :
Those towels costed a lot and they where on special! But they are exactly the color I had in mind and I love them! If I have money left, I’ll probably buy a couple more. At least another hand towel so I have a spare one when doing the laundry.
Here’s how my budget’s doing :
CAD$ | USD | Where | ||
Linen fabric | $5.00 | $3.70 | Local fabric store | |
Green yarn | $3.42 | $2.53 | Hobby Lobby | 40% coupon |

Mini Succulent | $2.86 | $2.12 | Michael’s | 50% off on special |

Next week :
Make a latter and attatch a rope to the miror. See if I have enough budget to change the wall light (I’m not really optimist on that one!)

You should try crochet. I just started in september, it's easy if you keep it with simple stiches (like the baskets). I'ts kind of a DIY you can bring everywhere with you! ;-)

Those crochet baskets are to die for! I really wish I could crochet now. And I love that you are counting in USD and CAD. Way to give yourself a few extra dollars :)
