Found Objects

If you love to go “junking” as much as we do you’ll know that there are wonderful items out there just waiting to be found!  Sometimes we shop with a purpose but when it comes to junking most often you don’t know what you’re looking for until you find it! The trick to successful shopping is to keep an open mind and remember that you never need to use an object for its original purpose!  And even if you don’t have any idea what to do with it–if it’s cheap enough, you have room to store it, and you love it–you should snatch it up while you have the chance!  With this in mind, we’d like to share from time to time a few of our favorite found objects that have new purpose in our homes!

 the best find? this old stand…in its past life it was probably used for store signage but now holds messages or menus in shabby style!

it’s so much fun giving an old, discarded item a chance to be the star of the show!

so what are you waiting for?  there’s an object out there calling your name!
