Generally there aren't a lot of garage sales here in the winter, and especially this year with so much snow, but yesterday I went to an indoor sale that was great!
The place was PACKED with stuff. I had to walk through several times just to feel like I wasn't missing a ton of stuff.
I found this old can (I'm not sure if it was originally a milk can, or maybe can for fireplace ashes?) I cleaned it up for a place right next to the fireplace. It's very heavy and the lid fits really tight.
This old jar got a cleaning and a 'new' zinc lid. I filled it with wine corks. Apparently we're going to have to pick up the wine consumption to get this baby filled! After a couple of other wine cork projects, our stash is lame. :)
I love old coffee cans. And they cleaned up nicely.
This wooden box was filled with gunk. I cleaned it like crazy and even sanded out the inside. I now feel like I can use it in the house. I love old advertising boxes.
Here's all of the loot. I am also excited about the two galvanized buckets that I will use outside this summer.
I even went back today and got more stuff. I'll share those finds later this week. Oh how I love rusty, dusty treasure hunting!
Thanks for your visit!
