What's new?



What's new?  I discovered a local consignment store this week on my way to pick up my kids from school and made some fantastic scores!  Here are a few pics of the items I promptly dropped off at From Out of the Woods:

Look at this fantastic old wood box!  It's the perfect size for a bar set-up, mudroom storage, turn it on it's side for a bench...


Did you catch a glimpse of the two long divided tool boxes?  Fill them with serving supplies for your next party, herbs on a windowsill, candles and river rocks as a table centerpiece...


One more view...look at the slatted sides, the weathered top, the hint of old blue paint worn away by time...


I love this 17-pane window.  Black on one side, white on the other.


And this set of three drawers...wish they weren't red, but I can always strip the paint if they don't sell right away.  


Close-up of the gorgeous hardware!


I also took home a long 12-pane window with a weathered frame and a bit of old white paint...it's sitting in my living room at the moment, trying to find a home on one of my walls! 


I don't have pics of the two amazing mercury glass mirrors I grabbed for Barn Loft and the set of antique pine cupboard doors going to Brookline Street, but I'm sure they will show up in studio and/or show pics in the next couple of weeks.

I haven't had a good shopping post in a while because, well, I've been too busy to shop!  How wrong is that?!  But here are a few pics of recent purchases, here and there, consignment, thrift, yard sale...you get the picture. 










Fun finds!  Keep watching my blog to find out what I do with them!

Have a happy day!

  1. Hi, I just found your blog . . . wonderful items. I love the wooden and the metal pulleys. There is something about the industrial age that is appealing to me. I would love to tag along on your blogging journey and invite you to tag along with me, too. I am your newest follower, Connie :)
