Funky and Fabulous Finds


Have come across some fabulous finds , thought I would share some of them with you ! I came across this wonderful old box ....lifted it and ...wow inside it is full of metal letters for a sign. These would be great in altered art , or even in home decor ! A lot of letters all in various sizes!
Found these vintage science lab flasks ! Love the tallest one , has an adorable little glass stopper also , the design of these is so simple , yet has the potential to make a great statement on a shelf or table scape !
Do you love wine?? A wicker wine case , ready to carry on an afternoon outing ! How cute is that?
Old buttons !! My eyes seem to search these out all the time , What is it about old buttons , seems like they can tell a story all of there own ! Love the carved buttons in this tin I got full of a bunch of "stuff" !
Vintage ( well somewhat vintage) aviation log book , I love the images , great for altered art projects !! Fabulous colors !

Have a wonderful week ! Summer has been so busy that my posting is now & then whenever I can fit one it , hope you are having a fabulous summer !!

Happy 4th Eunice, you and I are alot alike! BUT, you got talent and it shows so in your artwork!
I love buying supplies and then
I get all these good ideals???
and lots ofbain storms of what I am going to do! Then like you said in your other posting. Where does all my time go? Yard work, I have moved, I had great changes in the last 9 months, and then the prayers needed for my children, grandchilden, and now great-grandchildren! :)))) U know I do love every minute of it!!! This past year, my son worked in Singapore, and flew home every other month! My next to the youngest grandson joined the Airforce. Need I say more? Time is always passing so fast and at my age anyhow! LOL! But I am so thankful I live in a Country that I can shout! Praises to Jesus!
Thankful for that one everyday!
I love your art and love checking in on you! I might not always post a comment but you do inspire me to get-something going! :))))
(((Hugs))) from my heart!

PS: a dear friend that has passed from this life, gave me that flag picture and I do treasure the gift!
God is good!
