even on vacation my little crafty brain is working. while in desert springs, i spotted a thrift store, which i knew i had to stop in and take a peek. it was owned by a local church and filled with all kinds of goodies. since i had the girls with me i wasn't able to look around as i would have liked, but i did find a few goodies. i only currently have pics of the one find. i'll post the others later.
this was a random box with fake grass and moss balls stuffed inside. i was immediately drawn to the old aged white wood (don't you just love it)...it was only $3 and i think i even got 40% off that day too. i saw such potential in this poor little neglected box someone found no more use for. little box, i will give you new life in my house...
this is what it looked like before i had at it with a screw driver, razor blade, and hammer...oh yes...not as easy as i had thought...but definitely worth the hard work.
and this is the after...it is such a cute vintage looking box...aged to perfection in the paint job. it currently lives on my coffee table, housing a few candles and a succulent. she may move to another room, but for now, i like her here. any suggestions on what to fill her with???
