1/2 off day at Hospice Store

Well I ended up venturing out to the Hospice Store the  last Thursday of the month is half off the entire store hard to resist not going in...
While looking around I discovered this up on the top shelf  it is and old wood candle sconce scored for a buck!
Gave it a lil sanding and painted it black had some berries left over from another project and had the candle and up on the wall it went!!
Thank you for stopping by and hope you all have a great weekend will be heading out to the farm to get some more things moved and put away hopefully will remember the camera this weekend!

Lil ladder rack with baskets!

Picked this cute ladder rack  up yard sailing for $7 she was asking $10 but it would not stay together I knew all it needed was a screw!!!  LOL  
Brought it home gave it a good sanding and a coat of black Kyron satin spray  paint love how it turned out now put it in my new kitchen out at the farm when we move and fill it with vintage cookie cutters and old jello molds I have been collecting for years!

Cherry shinny finish had to go!

Shoe shine box and brushes...
Was out doing my normal weekly thrifting and seen this shoe shine box at the goodwill $4 passed it up and went on to some yard sales came across all these lil shoe shine brushes most of them were a buck and the small ones were 50 cents the wood shoe thing was $2.  So I raced back to the goodwill and it was still there thik I am going to give it a coat of stain or would it look right if I painted it black?  Let me know what you would have done with it!!!
Thanks HUGS JEN

Old Farm Table

I salvaged this from my grandparents basement they were gonna toss it in the dumpster after they passed away, I was told the wood is hickory but I have no idea and the top has some rust debating on taking the old metal top off and using it as a scrap-booking table or would you repaint the top back to original look?
The only bummer is the drawer was missing but I am thinking of just making it look like a draw since I really don't have the tools to make one!

Would you buy it? ~Vintage Baby Bed

Found this great treasure out thrifting for $10 should I leave it alone or repaint her up??  I have no clue of the history of it so if any one knows I would like to know about what year it is if it was just called a crib or what?
Still have to find a foam mattress for it and I want to make a pretty bedding set to go inside once I decide on the colors I want the spare bedroom done in!!!
I linked up to the Wednesday Would you buy it...
