28 September 2009

I didn't make it out this past weekend, but here are some of my treasures from the past few weeks~
The cutest tins~brand new, thought they would be perfect to put some goodies in for some gifts this Christmas, 25 cents each:

shoes, $1:




love me some t-shirt transfers for projects like these, 25 cents each:

cute white shelf with beadboard accents, 50 cents:

a vintage wood sewing box~I'm thinking this would be great for a makeover to store magazines and remotes, $2:

A HUGE framed print. Not interested in the print, but I'm stirring up ideas in my head for this one. It was raining and she wanted to get rid of everything, I got it for $5:

  1. Your finds are all just great. The tins will really be super for all those wonderful cookies, and the shoes are so cute. Love the picture and the little sewing box will be great for magazines and remotes. I can't wait to see them all redone. Hugs, Marty
