Junkin' find~vintage seed bin!


Hi guys!!
I have a really cool junkin' find to share with you today.
I found this in an antique store in Indiana and could
not walk past it, so it came home with me.  

You could tell it was handmade and really been loved~ just the way I like to
buy things.  Each section has the seed name written in pencil.  Hard to see but made
me love it even more.


I won't tell you what I paid cause hubby might see the post :):)
but it was so worth every penny!!
I think you will agree~Indiana has good junk!!!
Thanks for stopping by~

Try It Tuesday~more junkin' !

Hi !!
Thanks for stopping in for a late Try It Tuesday!!!
I have some really neat junkin' stuff to share with you today. Some I
found and some items were  given to me but all of it is really cool.

I really don't know about this dice other than I think it is super special. It was a gift and it is large.
Did you notice I have it turned towards "six" (six grands) ~love!!!

I have a thing for vintage boxes (that is a whole other blog post).  I think they are really neat, the graphics, the colors, the style ~ so cool!! I use them to store craft supplies in .

This guy, hanging on the post, not wanting to leave Texas, came from my mom's house. It is pewter
and heavy.  Not sure about it but I like!!!

I call this guy, army guy.  He came from my mom's house and I think he is darling. 
 Ceramic with no markings.

Another piece from my mom's ~ super cute!!!
Ceramic 

This was $4.  I think this is a receipt hook.  I think it would
 be great wall hook for a mini album.

Found these at resale shop, in our area, for $2 each. Love the colors and they had plenty
of the "cool" factor!!!

Found at the resale shop for $1. You know I can't walk past these.  I have many of these and plan to make bells from them (just need time).


Thanks for stopping by~
I need a junkin' trip:)

Try It Tuesday~junkin'

Hi guys!!
I have some junkin' stuff to share today.  It was given to me to create with. 
So perfect for that.  Odds and ends that are to cute to throw away.

I'll never turn down buttons :)


Stack of flour and muslin sacks. These will be great to create on using the gel-press, acrylic 
paint and stencils.  Can't wait!!

This is a beauty!! It is a large, well loved paint brush.  It will be fun to alter this!!!

Tie tags!! They look cool on projects.

Thread spools, you can never have to many!!! A crafting staple if you ask me.

Thanks for stopping in
 and be looking for what I create with this very cool stuff!!!!
