Tuesdays are Senior Discount day at our local Good Will. Of course I made my rounds through the housewares, and found the cutest thing.
Mind you, it didn't look like this when I got it, but I knew I could give it a little makeover. Sorry I didn't get the before picture, but imagine it with sprigs of green with dark yellow pom-poms on the end, some type of tall leaves sticking up, and ivy with half the leaves off, wrapped around the handle.
I pulled out everything that looked bad (all of the above), washed the piece a little, to at least remove some of the grime, and placed the 2 pink flowers in it, tied a piece of twine around the handle, and voila!!
I don't know what these are called, but it is metal, chippy, and is 4 small pails bound together. Love this new little treasure. I think it cost all of two bucks!!
The blue/purple flowers, and daisies were already there, I simply took 2 small stems from my stash and poked them in.
When you see a piece like this, try to keep in mind how you can change it to make it look prettier.
Do you think you would have bought this??

I almost didn't buy it because it looked so bad, but I'm so glad I did. Something as simple as removing the ugly, and adding 2 pink stems, gave it a complete facelift!
