Even My Mom Is Trash Picking!

Pin It

I am slowly but surely getting my friends trained in nabbing great curbside treasure but recently my mom even picked up something for me! Be still my heart.

A little scuffed up but a good cleaning got rid of most of it!

Took a blade and scraped this off (not even sure what it was) and it is gone.

Had to glue this section as it was lifting off.

Yup, she found this cute little round side table and grabbed it out of her neighbor's trash to save for me. It was in great shape and just needed a little glue and a little cleaning.

Still has a few scrapes and scratches that adds to the great character!

Thanks for stopping by!

You say junk, I say treasure!

Can you believe that school is back in session? The official end of summer and I always find myself wondering what happened to it? Here in Michigan, it took forever to warm up and now that it's September, it finally feels like summer!

Chalk paint, Annie Sloan and Vintage Market.
Have to say I like the Vintage Market best.

We've had a super busy summer here and I have been working on a bunch of projects but with my new job I hardly have time to post. Sharing today of my junk dresser rehab.

Knobs are the original wood knobs, spray painted
 with leftover Metallic Bronze Orb spray paint.

I shop all the consignment stores and retail stores. I can plan a morning of perfect garage sales, looking for that perfect something that is on my never ending list. But really, when it's all said and done, my best finds are the 'junk' that I happen upon or that garage sale that I stop at, spur of the moment. Every. time.

Not a great picture but here it is in the back of my car.

Sharing today my summer trash pick rehab. Hope you like it!
