winter treasure hunt

This is a wood bowl on a pedestal. It's pretty awesome right? Well I recently decided i was in love with the idea and was gonna make an effort to find more. And then..
I found 3 on my last trip. It was kizmit.

I saw these and thought they were great but I left them on the shelf. ten minutes later my sister put them in the cart. They are great and they came back to me. hmmm.

this is a Busy Bible, like the quiet books. That's a Creation Globe
on the first page and Noah's Ark on the second! I love it! Found at Goodwill.

this little bear was found at Salvation Army. It's in my top 5
Pooh objects. He's just hanging in there? Any challenge overcome for hunny!

it looks like a tea party


from the thrift to my house. the painting is a find and only a couple bucks. this is hanging in my bedroom next to the door at eye level. my eye level. the impressionist reprints, one is not pictured here, were also a steal. the jars are for tea party invites.
i'm now collecting interesting tea pots and glass jars. i was pretty excited to find the elephant teapot and the cloth toy one is just so darn cute.
the box and mirror are Roxana's purchases. they were also very cool finds. it would seem that one house cannot have to many small framed mirrors.

recycled today






this took forever to load and then it came out like this. i tried to fix it but decided to recycle the work anyway

i'ts august and i just wanted to finish this up. these were all bought at my favorite thrift, Salvation Army in Santa Ana on First and Fairview. These jars started me on an obsession for good sturdy glass jars. I've found 3 of these Fido jars. i'll post all the glass jar finds later. yay photo project. I have a million projects and will post tons about them soon.

Where I try to sleep















this is what my room looks like this week. i just put up the blue cubes. i can't decide if it's too cluttered for my taste. it might just be that i need more cubes to really bring this together.
