A Thrifty Find For The Screened In Porch

By Manuela Williams

I hadn’t been to Hobby Lobby in a while (it’s in another town) but my husband had to go to Lowe’s  yesterday (same town) so I popped in to HL to see what’s new and walked out with a big fabulous sign for $4!

Thrifty Find - Farmer's Market Sign - screened in porch decor

The cashier thought the price was too good to be true and called the manager over (which was annoying ) but he confirmed that it was indeed on clearance and the right price.  I have to say that they really do have the best clearance prices on home decor stuff out of all the stores I shop.

So I took down the sign I made out of an old fence board (I’m going to repurpose it in the garden) and put the new Farmers’ Market one up in my screened in porch.

I think it looks nice with the black of the curtains that you can usually see through the patio doors.

It’s been a while since I’ve found such a good thrifty find!

    The new sign looks great up there. I am just enamored with your dining room peeking through the doors though. ♥

    Oh my! I’m so jealous I could spit!

      LOL! Well Brenda I just can’t imagine you spitting for any reason 🙂 I was doing a little happy dance on my way out of the store!

    It WAS a great find, Manuela…and looks wonderful in your porch!

      Thanks so much Linda!

    I love those 90% off goodies! You did great! Also, I agree with you about the annoying call to the manager “to check” on your price. That has happened to me and there the price was, fair and square! But, I don’t let that deter me in the least! I’m out for those good bargains!

  7. Penny @ The Comforts of Home says

    That was a great buy! It looks perfect on your porch.

  8. Judy Clark says

    March 16, 2014 at 7:39 pm

    What a great buy – apparently in the 90% aisle!! It looks like it was just made to go over those doors. Really looks cute.

    Great shopping!

    What a deal! Your new sign has found the perfect home on your sunroom wall, Manuela.

    That’s an awesome find and looks great in your porch! I LOVE Hobby Lobby and their clearance area.

  11. Terri says

    March 16, 2014 at 8:18 pm

    Oh I love that! I wouldn’t let myself look at anything but what I went in for last time I was in the store. It was necessary but golly was it hard, lol.

    You did good – great price! I have a post in the works now on the same sign my daughter got.
    HL has a 90% off section often – makes you wonder why the cashier was not aware of it going on.
    Hope you enjoyed the weekend.

    Oh I love your sign and you definitely have the perfect spot for it. Great find. Hugs Marty

      March 16, 2014 at 10:28 pm

      Thanks Marty! I could hardly believe it when I saw it was marked down from $39 to $4! I haven’t found a good deal like that in a while 🙂

    Wow! Love it, and what a fabulous bargain! I did a post a while ago about a great deal I got at Hobby Lobby on a sign also. I agree…they have unbelievable prices in their clearance section.

  15. Theresa H. Roach says

    LOVE IT, Great find and MARVELOUS price:) I shop at Hobby Lobby and sometimes find some REALLY good deals! Enjoy your week day Manuela, HUGS!

  16. Deanna says

    March 17, 2014 at 8:25 am

    That is a great find!

    We don’t have a Hobby Lobby in my area at all. I’ll have to see where the closest one is! I hear such great things about them!

  17. Kathy @ Creative Home Expressions says

    That’s a great price, even for Hobby Lobby on clearance, Manuela! I don’t think you could make one for less than that.

  18. Kathleen Grace says

    March 17, 2014 at 9:04 am

    Wow, what a great find! I love deals like that. I almost never get to Hobby Lobby, it’s in a town about 45 minutes away and there really isn’t anyplace I go to on a regular basis there.

  19. bj says

    March 17, 2014 at 11:10 am

    O, dear Manuela…this is the CUTEST sign and looks like it was painted just for your space.
    And, you just solved a problem for me…I couldn’t find a spot to hang my clock on in my vanity area and when I saw YOURS on your vintage shutters, I thought, “ah HA…I can do that very thing….
    I’ll link back to you for your great idea….
    xoxo
    oh, and I need to see your amazing dining room again…..pretty please with sugar…..:)

  20. Pamela Gordon says

    March 17, 2014 at 12:41 pm

    That is a sweet sign and a great price too! I love your screened porch and I’m sure you will be using it soon, if not already.

  21. Susan says

    March 17, 2014 at 2:56 pm

    A great find and a great price! I love deals like that. I live in Canada, and we don’t have a Hobby Lobby here, but every now and then I’ll find something 90% off at Michaels.

  22. Jann Olson says

    March 17, 2014 at 4:35 pm

    Wow, that is one great bargain! Love how it looks with your darling red and creams on the table. I have to go to Hobby Lobby tomorrow. Hope I can find a super bargain! lol!
    hugs,
    Jann

    It looks wonderful and it was your lucky shopping day! 🙂

    Great bargain – and your porch area is gorgeous.

  25. Cindy says

    March 18, 2014 at 12:05 am

    The first place I head when I go to Hobby Lobby is the 60-90% clearance section! The finds you can get make me happy! I love your sign – it’s just perfect! Blessings, Cindy

    It’s like God had it not be sold so it was there just for YOU! 🙂

  27. Martha Ellen says

    March 18, 2014 at 1:37 pm

    What a great deal! It was made just for your porch. Have a great day! ♥

    • Manuela says

      March 19, 2014 at 5:42 pm

      Thanks Martha – it was my best deal so far this year!!

  28. Debbie says

    March 18, 2014 at 10:10 pm

    I love it, not just because I love the look of it (which I do), but also because of the thrifty score. That makes it double the pleasure.

    I love that shot looking in the door. That’s just soooo pretty!

    Super cute and the price was right!! Mimi
