Today is Sunday. Go visit Blossom at Bridal Blooms 4U for more fun finds and shopping tips.
Thanks Blossom for doing such a terrific job hosting this new event. =0)
Here are some of my weekend finds:
For the store, a nice silver picture holder.
A beautiful cherub urn, which will probably be beautiful antiqued creams when finished.
Keys, Keys, and more Keys!What a great find, all these keys for only $4.00.
Most are rusty, just the way i like them!!
This is a doll size Adirondack chair. It will probably be white when finished, too.
Here are the first of my clocks. Some purchased by me, and one given to me by a friend.Nice to have friends who know what you like. =0-)
The glass 'domes' are for covering, what evers. (Probably nests) =0))
And the lovely cream pitcher, will stay cream. =0)
Here is another deep frame to be used for bird nests, maybe another light blue one. They seem to be hot right now.Laying behind the silver tray is a roll of music wallpaper!!! A whole roll for a dollar!!!
Silver tray, letters, and candle holder? Who knows what they will become.
OK, my tips for the day:
Keys: was thrilled with this find. Have been looking but did not want to pay a dollar or two for each key. I started to just get two of the rings of keys, then went back and picked up the others.
Tip 1: If you find something you are looking for at a good price, buy them all!!!!
Tip 2: If you like the shape, size, color, or whatever, buy it!! If you like it you'll find a use for it.
Tip 3: Always be a cheerful shopper when you are out buying. No one wants to do business with a grump!!!
Blessings on your weekend, and Happy Mother's Day to all you Mom's out there.
