A few months ago, I was at the Goodwill and didn't see anything interesting until...
I went next door to Keepers. I found this little goodie to add to my kitchen. My current kitchen isn't the ideal space for it; it's more of a galley style, but I don't care. I wanted the table. The only thing is that I can't decide if I want to keep it natural or paint it.
Maybe someday I'll decide.....
Red? White? Limey green? Pale butter yellow? What do you think?
Then a couple weeks ago while the boys were at hockey, I was trying to focus on housework. It wasn't happening because I kept thinking of a cute jar I saw at the Goodwill.
When I couldn't stand it anymore, I went. I found this cute little tin 'picnic basket'. It's a little dented, but that makes it cuter in my mind.
It functions as a cute place to store/hide seasonal baking items. Everything has a purpose, right? ;)
This was something I had seen for a good three weeks just sitting on the shelf waiting. It's what I kept thinking about that Saturday. The strawberry pattern just wouldn't leave my mind. I was so excited that it was still there when I went back! It's like it was meant to be. Right? Love it.
Now I have a cute place to keep the oatmeal.On the same trip, I went to the Salvation Army and found this cutie! It's McCoy and I googled it when I got home and learned that there's a whole line of dish ware in this cute pattern. I had no idea. Now I'm on the lookout for more!
Right now I'm hiding Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs in there....shhh, don't tell!!I have way too much fun on these excursions and always look forward to going and what I may find. I could spend all day driving here and there to different stores on a hunt for great stuff!
Do you have a favorite place to find goodies for your home? Where is it? What is your fun find?
