3. I have used goodwill before.  However, I have never purchased anything from there.  I frequently bring old clothes and other goods to this location throughout the year.

PART THREE:

• Holiday Craft: 
•  This one seemed alot of fun, especially with the holidays around the corner.  It takes an old, mismatched mitten and some outdoors pine and other pretty things.  It can be hung as a door decoration and a great, simple gift to those you care for! 
• Winter Green Fresh: 
• This one was especially interesting and could be used throughout the seasons.  It takes an old box spring and place small flower pot in the springs.  This showcased certain bulbs that were planted, but i'm sure you could plant whatever you please.  Use it as decoration and change it up throughout the year!
• From Card Table To Wall Art:
• I especially enjoyed this project.  I am always so interested in big art work for the place that I rent and each year you may have a new home to decorate.  All the walls are different sizes and need to be filled in different ways.  Big art pieces are not cheap!  This is an amazing, cheap(er) way to fill up those empty white spaces.  It takes an old card table, that has designs on it, and hang it up as your new masterpiece!  Love it!
