So here is the stuff I found:
As cute as this is, I won't be keeping it. I have no place for it. But I dearly wanted to rescue it from a garbage truck death! I can't believe it was thrown out. So... i will be bringing it to the thrift store and hopefully somebody else can put it to good use. :)
Now this, I can use:
Someone had a "sold" sign in front of their house and lots of trash and opened cardboard boxes outside for people to look thru. I found this:
And I KNOW I've seen that little driving rabbit somewhere! WHERE?!!
My kids are too old for something like that, so it will be a gift.
I also found this long... spice rack? I imagine? We're redoing our kitchen, so it might be useful. I can always repurpose it in my scrapbook studio too!
A closer look:
Now wouldja look at THIS?
I think they;re too big for my son's hockey room (his closet is super small), but they might fit in my middle son's room. If not, transformation ahead!
I also found this adorable hutch for a child's desk:

Si tu regardes la chambre de notre bébé (http://blogladybird.blogspot.com/2009/09/chambre-de-ptit-prout.html), tu verras que nous avons fait une belle trouvaille côté panier aussi... nous l'avons placé au pied du grand arbre...
I cannot believe all that stuff was in the trash! I sure wish my neighbors would throw away stuff like that!
Welcome!!! We really enjoyed having you over!
No curbside garbage like that around here! Could that be a magazine rack?
I love that rescued something out of the trash just to keep it from going to the landfill....love it!
I'm also loving that spice rack...I'd fill it up w/ spice jars full of glitters!
Nice to meet you!
Great, great finds! I think it's great that you rescued something from the trash to be passed onto someone else. I only wish I had time to drive around on garbage day :) p.s. I'm so happy to meet a fellow Montrealer - how cool is that?!!
great stuff! I wish people would throw more furniture away in my neck of the woods...I'm not that lucky
WOW! Way to go! I could use several of those things. So nice that they're not being destroyed.
You are one savvy curbside shopper!! Love what you found and look forward to seeing the transformations.
Ok...we are really thinking that we need to go beyond our neighborhood! We NEVER get anything like this around our town on trash day....so fortunate you are!
wow!! super great finds!!
Glad you came by, so now i can see what you are up to. =0))
