Went over and got reconnected with my next door neighbor. She's an older lady and years ago I had helped her with some computer tutoring. She never put it together that I was the one who had moved in next door 5 years ago. So now she's all happy about neighboring again and said for me to come over just ANY time :) I picked up this cute little juice size pitcher. Eyed some other things that I later went back to get. and hopefully will post about later. This guy has some fleabites on the ice lip. still very cute funky little piece. for $2.00
Project number 1. Maybe Ivory paint for this guy? Got him for a Dollar. Bathroom perhaps?
Project #2...my first chalkboard project.
This is my favorite piece. I got the tile for $1.00 and the easle (silver with a bamboo look if it doesnt show up that well) for a dime. I love the colors of teal and chocolate in the tile. It makes me happy.
Here's what I went back to neighbor Helen's for. The cornucopia, well everyone should have one for fall, there were about 3 others over there and I should have grabbed them all (since I think the leftovers may have gone to the dump...sad day) and the flowers and leaves in it and the flowers in my urn in the backgroud, plus flowers for my door basket. I was very happy to so simply add a season to my home.
Of course I did have an approval committee inspecting the purchases.
He seems rather disinterested.

What beautiful cats. I like the wicker cornucopia.
ReplyDeleteHand over the tile before someone gets hurt! LOL! Those colors are my new love and I will be redoing the kitchen in them. I have my own 2 critics, I mean cats, also.
