Crafting & Thrifting

I have a multitude of projects going on right now in my craft room.

See the first Crafternoon {here}.

Currently working on transforming the above lamp into something that fits more with my craft room décor.

Here is a sneak peek…

I traveled to Traverse City this week for a conference and did a little thrifting while I was there.

I added two pieces to my milk glass collection. The combined cost for both was $3.50 {What a deal!}

These little letters will be transformed for some wall art in my daughter’s bedroom.

This dish here I have had for about 15 years. It was a piece that I bought from a thrift store right after I was out of high school. I have always loved the detail on it and hung it in numerous places within my homes. As you can see it broke…{tears}…I may just glue it and maybe it will add more character to it.
