This is a good sized, beautiful Christmas sled that is also a pillar candle holder:
A Hurricane Pillar Candle Holder...Crusty & Rusty, just the way I like 'em! :
Craft much? All of these goodies have my wheels spinning...Some sort of display box with glass:
Monogram Art!!! Hope my kids' teachers' last names begin with these letters:
I'm thinking chalkboard paint for these fruit plaques:
But wait, there's more...LOOK AT THIS HUUUUUGE WICKER BASKET!!!
Look at it next to the chair, china cabinet and my (scrawny) cat!
What will I keep in it? Toys, of course...look at the bottom...that is a RIDE-ON car in there, I'm telling you, this basket is B-I-G!!!
How big? 28 inches in diameter...
By 28" tall!!!
Love it!!!
But, I saved the best for last....
Can you just imagine the possibilities with this Gossip Chair? I already know what color I am going to paint it and what fabric to use for the seat and possibly a skirt, too...a Mistreated Skirt, of course, since I do not sew! But I do know how to use a staple gun and a glue gun...I was sooo ecstatic to find this, I have been seeing them all over in blogland and hooray, now I have one, too...pinch me! ;)
Thank goodness for my haphazard ways...I had no idea what I was going to do after I dropped my lil guy off at preschool this afternoon...thank goodness I just happened to drive by THIS garage sale...I gave the sellers the web address for my blog, so if you stop by...please say, "Hi!"
ttfn!

Great stuff! After I dropped off my son this morning for a cross-country meet, I saw lots of garage sales, but my hubby wouldn't let me stop at any! Darn! He said that I had too many projects already...and is probably right!
What awesome finds!
Great treasures.
That's what I call accomplishment.
