Settling In

It's been awhile- settling in to our new house is taking sooo much time. who knew?  I'm still waiting on furniture that's been ordered. I have boxes that still need unpacking...but I thought I'd share a few vignettes that I have managed to arrange and unpack.

rusty scissors, old books, and an old alarm clock

Living room fireplace- vintage suitcases found a home

 

Wire basket holds my clam shell collection

 

My $10 find at a thrift shop is perfect for holding driftwood

 

Fireplace Mantel

Breadbox Re-Do

While strolling through the Swap Shop Flea Market the other week I found this tired wooden breadbox from the 1970's.  What caught my eye was the "bread" font- a pretty script...and I knew I could paint it and transform it. Best part=$2.00.  So here's the before and after.... looks worth more than $2 now!
