Spring Tulips and Some Finds


I just couldn’t resist the pretty tulips I’ve been seeing all over blogland, so at Walmart I bought some, I loved
the color of these a lot of you have showed. When I bought them I wondered where I would put them and what I would use for a
vase. Well, the old hoosier and blue ball jar won…

Then I went to Goodwill (I hadn’t been there in months) I found this planter for $1.99.

The lidded basket was a GW find a way few months ago.

The little planter above was just .99 marked USA, I just love it!
I did stop at an antique store and found this watering can for $20.00. It
will come in handy this summer.

Look at the wooden spoon I found and dust broom, no more then $2.00 for both.

These are brand-new S&P’s they were still in the package! I usually buy a set each
Christmas but last year I didn’t find any that I liked.

How about these six cordial teeny glasses…..

One thing I’d like to ask is…do you find me adding the price of things that I find, how
shall I say it…offensive? Please let me know in the comments below, I know I see
some don’t care for it and some that do.

Freshened Up the Hoosier for Spring

Hi everyone, how are you… I hope good and that you are enjoying some spring weather! Right now we are having sunshine, Yay!!!
I repainted the hoosier with Polished Pearl by Behr said to be a match of ASCP old white.

I had painted it with a shade of gray from Valspar and really didn’t care for it, it had to much blue in it for me.

An artist I’m not.lol, but it will have to do, I don’t know if you know this but my favorite season is Spring some like Fall more
but not me.

I didn’t change the top to much, just added a trophy that I found at TJMaxx.

I’m loven the brass colored letters on the book spines too.

I’ve also been trying a different styling on it, trouble is everything looks good on it!

See what I mean!
I don’t know about the lampshade though, had it and decided to see what it looked liked, I have two gift cards for PB so I
may buy the burlap one, the one on it is from Target. I also need to add one more thing to make it an odd number.
funny what you see after the picture is taken;) Oh, how do you like the crock lamp on the hoosier, found it a good 5 years ago for $5.00.
