Say It Ain't So

Another collection!!! Surely not! It happened when I found this green five-fingered bud vase at Good Will. Not something I would expect to find at Good Will, but nevertheless, I did.

It was a fabulous price, and I brought it home. Then I went on Ebay.........yep, I did, and I found more....at great prices..... this blue one which is bigger, but of similar design.

and, this one, which is even bigger!

This one is huge and was chipped in shipping, but I've tried to repair it as best as I can and will use it.

They say that 3 of anything makes a collection, so just what I need, another one! :) This solid white one came from Good Will, and makes 4. So I definitely have a collection started. I love the uniqueness of this one.

Three are hand painted and made in Portugal. The white one is unmarked.

Well, I found another unusual one at GW yesterday when I went in. It isn't marked, and oh how I wish it were. If anyone knows about this one, please tell me in the comments.

Handles with rings on each side. I couldn't believe it!

So now there are five!!

All lined up in a row.....

Y'all know I really need another collection! If I don't have a yard sale soon, I'm going to be overtaken by stuff!!

Really, somebody, please stop me!

The solid white, and the blue/white are my favorites. Which is yours?

Thrifty Bookcase Makeover

About a year ago, I was working on a photo gallery area at the lake home. There is an area about 7x7 between the living room, and the hall bath. I bought a really inexpensive ($20.00) bookcase to use there to hold family photos. I hurriedly placed photos on it, and didn't think much about it. The last time we were at the lake, I was sitting there looking at how badly it looked, wondering what I could do to spruce it up a little. It had all colors/types of picture frames -red, pink floral, wood, brass, you name it! I remembered seeing adhesive shelf liner at the Dollar General the day before. So I made a quick trip back there, and bought one 9 ft. roll for less than $3.00. I know this is not an original idea and has been done by lots of people, but I wanted to show you anyway. First, I emptied out all the photos, pulled out the shelves, measured, and cut the paper to fit inside the bookcase. I also took all the photos out of the frames and w...

Stenciled Burlap Pillow

I just have to share my no sew pillow project. I had some burlap fabric in my fabric stash, and decided I would use it to cover a pillow. First, I found an old pillow I no longer use. I spread the burlap out on the floor and laid my pillow on it so I could cut the fabric big enough to cover it. I was so intent on the project, I didn't make any pictures of the process. Once the burlap was cut, I folded in the sides about an inch, and glued it down with Tacky Glue, pressing it down several times with my fingers. I did this all the way around the fabric, and laid it aside to dry over night. The Tacky Glue dries clear. My next step was to determine how I could lap the fabric over the cushion in an envelope fashion. I had tried to get my computer to print out a graphic that would show up on the burlap, but printer problems interfered with that plan, so I found the center, and stenciled it with the tree stencil I bought at Michael's. ...
