W.W.W- My Intentions Were..........

My intentions were to make at least one of these finds my "Whatcha Working on Wednesday" project. but, right now its raining.. what a bummer!!


Can someone call Home Depot?
I think they are missing some of their orange paint. :)
I found this very cool wood cupboard at the Goodwill Warehouse. It is definitely getting painted something else. lol
The best part was they had just moved it over to the 99 cents area!! Yea for me!!!
Maybe use it to stash fabric or sewing notions in? What would you do with it?
(The cat is mine, she didn't come from the warehouse) :)


Another great place to search for goodies to "redo" is Freecycle.
I responded to an offer and got both of these old rockers.
The armless one I am definitely keeping for me. I can't wait to get it painted up! :)



The other free rocker.
Anyone else looking for a rocker?
Stop over by Leslie's and see what everyone else is working on. :)

  3. Kim,
    Well you know I'm looking for a rocker but the shipping might be a little pricey, given the shape. Maybe you could disassemble and pack it up and I could make Jer put it back together? LOL Just kidding, of course!

    The first rocker is awesome! That's something I would have scooped up in a second, too! The second just needs recovered and a new back cushion. I saw one like that at the Antique store for $20, but I decided I didn't want to mess with it....

    You weren't kidding about the Home Depot ORANGE cabinet! I love the cabinet, I have been looking for something that I could sit at the end of my bar and stuff full of junk like that. No luck yet! What a STEAL for 99¢! Had it not been that color, you probably wouldn't have gotten such a bargain so thanks to the person that thought that was the perfect color!

    I commented after your comment on my blog but I'll also repeat it here incase you don't go back and check (I know I never do!) I do like that the candle mats have something on the outside. I haven't made a lot of them because I figure there is no point in making something that's half covered up!

    Good luck with whatever you do today! I'm sure you'll figure out something.

  9. Love the orange storage cubbie especially for 99 cents! Good find on the rockers also - I keep my eye out for these kind of chairs - they are fun to fix up. I've even made a fairy garden out of a seatless one once!
