Hi everyone! Welcome to another Thrifty Thursday. I have a few thrifty finds today, but the main one is a liquid dish soap dispenser.
We had a recent kitchen remodel and the island is in the center of our home, open to every room. I've tried to find things to use around the sink that are "pretty" since the front door is not too far away and the kitchen is the first thing you see.
Here is the liquid soap dispenser. I found it in the kitchen section of Walmart for $4.00
It's an olive oil dispenser. It's a glass bottle with the dispensing tip.
My neurotic OCD goal would be to use up all the green, then the orange soap I have left and use a clear soap in this bottle. I know...crazy, but I guess it's all in the details Lol !!
It has a slower drizzle which I like...not too much soap all at once, especially with the soaps that are concentrated now. You don't need too much of it.
I think you can just buy the tip, so you can add it to any pretty bottle of your own. Maybe a wine bottle or something similar.
I also wanted to share the other thrifty finds in this picture.
The white porcelain cake plate was in the clearance rack of Marshall's / Home Goods for $6.00.
The lemons are the best deal for me!!! They're not real. I couldn't see myself buying real lemons all the time just for a decoration. I don't use lemons enough to justify buying them fresh and have them rot on the counter.
These lemons are from the Dollar Tree!! Well worth it, because they look so real...the texture on the skin and the color. Every single person who comes into the house thinks they're real.
The cake plate is one that you may have seen in stores. It comes with a ribbon that runs through the slots on the rim. I just took the ribbon out!
The white plant pot is from the thrift store or a consignment shop...can't remember. I do remember it was only $1.50.
It's plastic, but looks like porcelain. Never turn down something that's plastic...I go for the shape or style of the item.
Here is a Thrifting Tip...
When you're out thrifting at consignment shops or yard sales, have a list of things you need or want for your home or family...even the simplest of things like a pot for a plant. Have measurements, colors, sizes etc. Really helps when you come across that "great find" and you know it will be a perfect fit.
This list may not be a high priority list, but when you can get something for a $1.50 instead of paying full price...all the better.
Happy Thrifting,
~Karen~
