As Is... Isn't all bad...

On my recent Thrift Shop shopping trip to Austin with Candy, Sandy and Terry... I found this small set of ceramic canisters with brass lids... for sale "As Is"...
As is... $1.99... $.99... $.69... grand total for all three... $3.67..
As is...
no knobs on the lids...!
Hobby Lobby to the rescue... 3 knobs $2.50 each...
-50% off... they were on sale... total for the knobs...
$3.75...
had to slightly enlarge the holes with a screwdriver...
time to complete the project...
less than 10-minutes...
Total thrifty cost... $7.42...
Enjoying these beautiful canisters in my kitchen
down here in French Lique...
Priceless!

I absolutely love this thrifty treasure...
As Is... Isn't all bad... not bad at all...
