Thrift Stores 2

I also discovered this frame for 95 cents at Goodwill.  I spray painted it a bright teal and placed a mixed media piece that I had painted for a Klimt challenge.  I keep telling Ben this is part of "going Green" but I think he sees it as more junk but humors me.

Love Thrift Stores

Well, as you can tell I don't do well at blogging.  With the start of a new school year and Nana's recent diagnosis, I have been a little short on free time.  I did get a little bit of thrift store time this morning and found a beautiful treasure.  I have always wanted a spinning wheel and have always been outbid at auctions.  Today I discovered a spinning wheel chair. I realized what it was from my addictions to all the restoration and antique shows.  Often when a spinner would die the family would make the spinning wheel into a chair.  Anyway, I was happy.
