Everything old is new again
We love the idea of taking lost pieces and fragments and junk, and bringing out new beauty - letting it shine again, and be loved in a new way . . . this black counter could be a kitchen island, a laundry room folding table, a baby changing piece, or entertainment console . . . the possibilities are endless!
Oh the fretwork! Isn't this a wonderful way to admire a squeaky screen door, and this wreath handmade out of old book pages . . .
Vintage tea cart repurposed as a piece maybe in the bathroom . . . load up the bottom shelf with a stack of fluffy white towels . . . clean and crisp -
Love this creativity! Hat molds hung as display pieces . . .
What a bright idea - found galvanized piece turned into a lamp . . .

Don't throw away your tools just because they break . . . don't you want a shelf made from a rake?
Old wooden trim made with cute clips to hang anything!
Food cover made from newspapers - love this! And it's so strong too!

Old fencing and insulators turned into a chandelier - love this for your outdoor spring entertaining!
A chair with no seat? No problem. As a planter it's neat.
Unbelievable necklaces made from found fragments and amazing pieces you have to see and love . . .

Drawing us in . . .
We are mesmerized by pieces like this 3 tiered, ever-so-large birdcage, that would transform any space where it calls home.
We love the thought of giving gifts like these natural bird journals - that inspire the person receiving them to reflect, create and write their heart's thoughts.
And we are fascinated by simply gazing at a found treasure touched by the warm sunshine, drawing us in its fleeting moment of this beautiful light it has now cast on our souls.
