It's Monday again!!!

And you know what that means?!

It's time for:
:)

And here's my loot for this week!!!

And once again, most are trash day finds! Actually, the ONLY thing I bought here was that wooden CD rack thing (which is on its side, above), bought at a thrift store for 2$.

EVERYTHING ELSE was from curbside trash!

Now let's see these items separately, shall we?

First, found last week curbside, this little wicker table! Apart from one leg which is missing it's wicker 'wrap' at the bottom, it's in perfect condition, just needing some cleaning and fresh paint. It'll go GREAT with this wicker chair I found a couple of weeks ago, see HERE. I plan on bringing both to my summer home (trailer in VT) and put them on our covered deck for a reading area :)

Love the details:

Some handmade wooden planters (I think you know by now that i love wooden boxes ;) )

And old chippy window, woot woot! Yknow I love those but they are quite rare here since my town is fairly recent. I found it in an area of the town that, decades and decades ago, used to be summer cottages! Perfect!!


A closer look at the chippiness :)

The only thing I actually paid something for! A big toonie (that's 2$ in canadian slang ;) ) at a thrift store. It's made of thick and heavy wood and it appears to be a CD rack. I will be cutting the piece of wood at the bottom that makes it stand up, and I'll use it on the wall, horizontally, for.... god knows what! LOL!


And how about THIS?!!! And old sewing table!! Couldnt believe it when I saw it on the sidewalk!!

Missing the sewing machine of course, but I dont intend on using it for sewing anyway (and, I dont even sew LOL!!)

I loooooove how it looks (Sorry it's so blown in the pics, hard to get a pic of it outside!).

I will also be bringing this to the trailer and use it on the deck as a desk for my daughter who loves to draw.

but THIS, below, is actually my favourite find!!

*drooooool*

It's soooo freaking HEAVY!!

It's in perfect condition, just needs some pressure washing and stain, and it'll go... you guessed it, at my summer place! Since we just stained our deck, there, this weekend, it'll look gorgeous!!!

Now go share your junking and thrifting treasures at Rhoda's place!!

Oh, and STAY TUNED for some remodeling again!!
This week, we shall be starting our thrifty remodeling of the KITCHEN!!! WOOHOOOO!!!
I will cover my ugly laminate cabinets with beadboard and trim and crown molding, with new hardware... to start with! Then we will be changing the floor, the counter and adding a backsplash :)

PS- I forgot to mention something else that is in the first picture! That "surf" board! It's fine, except it's missing it's rope. But since we have a pool, we dont need the rope! :)
