Junking!






I have been junking again! I love to visit goodwill, flea markets, used furniture stores, etc. you get the picture? lol. It is just fun to always be on the look out for unusual "treasures". On my last trip, I found this topiary except it didn't look like this. It had seen better days, the top was actually sitting in the container (love that, it is metal) and wasn't even on a dowel. I didn't have to redo the foam, just found a piece of bamboo that worked and got it hot glued in there. There was a place in the "ball" to fix the bamboo and I was ready to go. The greenery was just placed around the center and a small dried flower was inserted. Wa laaaaa, it was finished! How do you like the bowl? I just love it to, what a bargain for 6.00. For now I will let sit there, but eventually will put a flower arrangement in it. The table was 12.50 and just needed painted. Another one of my vices! When the weather is like this, finding something to do is necessary, so today I started taking the fabric off a 2.00 queen ann that I got at a garage sale. But that is another post and it will be a loooong time off. Thank you for stopping by! I am linking up with Metamorphosis Monday! (link follows). You will be inspired!

New Booth at Grandma's Attic



Here is just a few of the pictures of our new booth! A local flea market opened close to my home, so I was very excited along with a sweet friend to be a part of it. I love home decor and do a lot of painting and floral design so it was a perfect opportunity to be creative and to go through my stash and make a little money to. We are enjoying it and already are seeing things being sold. Money is tight but folks will be buying gifts for the upcoming holidays and to decorate their homes. Thank you for stopping by! Have a wonderful, blessed day!
(If you happen to be in the area or need a good excuse to do a road trip, stop by Grandma's Attic located right off the Anderson Missouri exit. There is a new motel, a strip mall and Stangs convenience store and gas station. Subway is also located there to.)
