How to Up-Cycle Curbside Finds!

Did you ever have a day when the Junk Gods were
smiling down on you?

Vintage crates and barrel

Well that day was today! 

I was driving along, saw this pile and BANG! 

"Pull over!!!!"
I loaded up the car and embarrassed my daughter all in one shot!

It was worth her embarrassment! 

I hit the mother-load of vintage finds!

As soon as I got home, I got right to work on my new finds!

I added wheels and a license plate to one box. You can read all about that one by following the bold link.

I added a shelf to another box, I needed a cool looking book shelf in my craft room.
