Lately I have been on a search for cheap things to put in my new house. I would love expensive items, but hey I am a single mom living on a nurses salary. I am so excited to finally be living on my own and so scared! There is so much to buy. Can't someone throw me a NON bridal shower? Chelsie? Anyone?
I found these plates at the DI. I love them. My sister paid good money for brand new ones. These were on sale for 50 cents each. Even though they were really scratched I knew I could fix them. I saw a great tutorial here.
I went to Home Depot and bought Bar Keepers Friend the liquid version and the powder version. I put a little on these plates and scrubbed away.
