Don't shy away from tarnished silver they are great buys.

I found this little beauty.  Did a search online to find a home remedy for cleaning.

Toothpaste??  Wow.  It is already coming to life. Can you imagine what it could do for teeth?

Here is my latest great find, an antique bird cage in beautiful condition with ornate iron and hand painted doors.  Very unusual and very functional for a small bird.  See it live at Tuxedo's in Duvall, WA


Vintage wood spools decorated with vintage jewelry.  Still working on adding some vintage lace or threads wrapped around the spools.  What an awesome use to both those unmatched and outdated earrings.

This is a "Ranger" model coffee table now a Springtime bench

beautifully solid "Ranger" model coffee table

The adventure is visiting Lowe's miss tint area.  For .50 this spring yellow was just the right fit.  

I decided to use my new fancy printing blocks.  There is an art to printing evenly and I haven't mastered it.

Hardware went back in place.

Leather back seats?

A Great Day For Junkin in a few weeks

Getting prepared for A Great Day For Junkin.  Here are a couple of projects I squeeze in between jobs.

An old mirror frame is now a window box

Tile found in a recycle bin is now a nice kitchen or dining room decor.
