Score off of Craigslist!

Thanks to Craigslist we purchased this terrific desk and chair set for just $40 today!!

 

It isn't in perfect condition, but nothing a little TLC can't fix. It is solid wood, it is such a great/cute size, a piece of furniture with some character to it.  Best of all, it has 5 yr old Jay and 3 yr old David's enthusiastic approvals. At bedtime tonight after tucking Jay into bed he said to me, "Mom, I really love my new school desk." That, alone, makes it the best $40 I've spent in a while. (heart melting)

 

The desk and chair will eventually be at "home" in the downstairs guest room (hopefully in the next couple of months) when we convert our "box room" from our move in February to a guest bedroom and school room.

 

When we arrived to look at and purchase the desk and chair, the lady also had a sign on this Black & Decker play work bench in her yard that said, "FREE." She asked if we were interested in it, so we said, "Sure." It works great in the play room to go along with the Black & Decker play tools Jay and David received for their birthday this year from friends.

We are grateful to so tangibly and clearly see God's hand of unexpected double blessing today in these material items.
