Estate Sale:Today was a GOOD day.

I love to find an Estate sale that has interesting stuff ... good prices and clean.                                  
TODAY was that kind of day !!!
Just look at that like new splint oak basket for 50¢ ...!
Don't know what the spools/rollers are
but they are pretty neat and 50¢ for all six.
Hole goes all the way through.
Research reveal that these are textile spools.


 Cute little cutting board ... likely a brush for hanging wallpaper (25¢) and unusual scissors ... 

I believe this is a display shelf that would have been used in a convenience store.              There is a bracket at the top that may have held a sign.                                           This was reasonable at $15.00.                                                                                 I plan to paint it and use it for towels when we get our bathroom remodel done.


 Nice metal bird bath ... for my daughter. $35.00
I might just restore this one. 


 Step stools or small
ladders are always needed around our house.

Good time-worn condition and a real steal at $2.00. 

Just look at these cool black silhouettes ... thin wood.               
 
All seven for $5.00.               
Will be used on signs or used for patterns.

Maybe even a pig cutting board pattern ... really primitive.


                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    



This old rooster will be perfect for a long awaited project on my to-do list.
 For a sign in a little boy's room.





Thanks for stopping by for a visit. Hope you will let me know you were here.

Blessings,
Audrey Z.

Before and After ... repurpose, recyclying, saving.

Before and After ... most of these projects were done when I first started blogging. One even long before that ... heck, I have been doing this just about all my life !!!

My happiness comes when I can re-purpose something, 
save it from the dump and make it beautiful and useful. 

I enjoy working with wood and love to recycle, re-purpose  lamps and lighting fixtures. 
 

Boards came from our lumber pile ... natural antler drops from the ranch ... no animal was harmed to make this shelf.

This old post lantern had just about served its time ... but a little TLC saved it. Beautiful old wavy glass ... just had to save it.


See how it was done HERE ...
