Oh that rocking chair!!! It reminds me SOOOO of one I always wanted from our camp back home. Then when the camp was sold, along with all it’s possessions, I wasn’t around to CLAIM the chair as my own.

Thanks for bringing back that memory!!!

I’m impressed. I pick up items in need of TLC and then never get around to doing anything with them. Only a week later and you already have two projects complete!

You really found some great things. How nice that your son and husband love to come and pick up these things for you
Husbands really are great for these types of things. The rocker and cupboard look great, it’s hard to believe what people throw away.

You’ve got some great men in your life! I love how your son zips over and is so helpful! (how did the tattoo go btw?)

The cupboard??!!!! omg!! It’s gorgeous. Of course the rocker is too, but I just love that cupboard and that white peeling paint thingy. It’s so cool.

What wonderful finds, and amazing transformations….I never find anything anymore in peoples trash…darn city has big bins now to wheel out to the curb, so lots of good stuff is never seen….

Have a great Weekend and a wonderful VTT!

I was thinking that I really need to start walking again. Can I walk with you on Wednesdays?! My gosh girl, that’s all awesome stuff! Did you and your friend fight over it all? That cupboard is incredible, and I love the color you painted it! You’ve definitely given that rocker a second life–it’s gorgeous now! And hey, if you have to make a new arm for the other chair, big deal. Easy peasy! I can’t wait to see what you find next week!
Happy VTT!

I think your garbage day finds are great. You’ve done such a good job of fixing them up. They look really great.

How talented you are!!! The chairs are going to be magnificent—the rockers is already distinguished and perfect, and the reds will bring a bright haven to your garden. What lucky finds!!

And what a gift you have for seeing them, and making them better images of themselves.
