This is a combined post and my
vintage and thrifties are kind of mixed in together.
OK, now I know you will not believe this,
but i have checked this picture 3 times.
It is absolutely right side up in my Photo file,
but comes sideways on this screen.
My fella says it is "PICNIC"
(problem in chair, not in computer).
So, please, just turn your head a bit, and enlarge photo,
to see these really cool old tins that held little parts years ago.
Here are some non-vintage finds
that will probably be painted a different color.
The shoe buckles at the bottom of this pic are vintage,
and are not being painted a different color. =0))
And some new items purchase at the beach
last time we went.
They are decorative pieces, and sea shell dishes.
They are made out of a really hard resin that looks like marble.
They are in my newly decorated sea shore area at the store.
(soon to be revealed!!)
It's hard to tell if these are oldies,
or just so dirty and rusty they look old.
But, for 50 cents, it doesn't really matter.
(These may turn in to Get R Done Friday projects.)
And last but not least, more vintage art.
These yellow roses I painted were a gift to
my brother in 1978.
Since he is getting ready to retire in the near future,
and he and his wife will sell all and travel,
I am getting some of these treasures back.
Any one like yellow roses?
Maybe I'll put them in the gift shop.
