As the sunroom construction work should hopefully be done in less than a week, (works have been nonexistent since last time I updated you) I have been keeping my eyes open for some furnishing for that room.
Most of the stuff will be pulled out from other room and "storage" (not that we have that much...but still).
A few things we were looking at, and this is what we bough yesterday.
An American Signature Love seat in great shape and super comfy.
I had been looking at lots of different options. Either the "look" was right, but uncomfortable. Or nice to sit on, but
way more than what I wanted to spend.

Then I spotted this one,
from a nice area, 4 minutes from our house, $50.

Really?
This is sturdy, clean, well kept and well made (American Signatures).
No funky smell I might add.
That helps.

When we walked in, the house was well kept and clean.
For $50 we took it home...and now sits temporarily in our living room.

Same day different time,
we picked up 2 super sturdy, all wood bookshelves, with 3 shelves each (not pictured).
They were asking $5 each.
Yes, both please.
One bookshelf will soon be turned into something totally different.
Can you guess what that would be?
A total of $60 well spent.
Stay Frugal,

Love your new sofa!
What a great buy on that sofa Daniela...it looks so comfy!
Dearest Daniela,
What a treasures you found!
What are you using the one bookshelf for? Maybe on its face as a table?
You will come up with something special and pretty that's for sure.
Enjoy your work on the new room and hope it gets done soon.
It is very cold down here we will have -10°C tonight and -12°C tomorrow and that is without the windchill factor... Nippy.

What great finds. Makes me want to go look through Craigslist right now!
Don't you love a bargain? Yours look great! Hmmm...wonder what you're gonna do with the bookcase? Something super creative, I'm sure :)

I adore your loveseat it looks so comfortable I'd want to sink right in. As for the bookcases, I'm not even going to guess, you are so creative I'll just wait and see.
Beautiful loveseat! I was able to find an IKEA sofa with a sofa cover on our local Craigslist last year for a great price. It's always a great feeling when you find a bargain. Great deal on the bookshelves too! Can't wait to see what you do with them.
Nice finds! :)I need some shelving...and $5 would fit the budget nicely.
